Having too much time on my hands, the biggest decision I have most days, is which folder do I carry.
Here are three of my latest rotation.
The top and bottom ones are from Bret Dowell. The middle (yellow micarta) is a John Lloyd.

I have a couple of John Lloyd wharnies. I'd be partial to his knife.

That is a nice choice, I'm partial to the Lloyd myself.

Very nice knives, Rod- congrats! I really like your taste in knives smile
With a couple of Bret's knives in my drawer I'm a huge fan of his work. Brilliant work, looking forward to the next. I never had a chance to handle a knife of John Lloyd but I only heard positive comments.
Enjoy them all at once or one after the other wink

My latest Bret Dowell. It came to me a while ago. I have finally decided I will carry this knife daily, which was difficult for me to do. (I am part Scottish!!) But after all, it is a tool, not a fragile piece of glass.

Bret said the micarta will yellow in time.

Looking for a couple pieces of FI at Blade for the next Dowell knife.
