Which one are you taking?

🇩🇪 Otter Small Ankermesser — Made in Solingen, Germany. African blackwood covers with a brass anchor inlay.

🇺🇸 Great Eastern Cutlery TC Barlow (2017) — American-made with Gabon ebony covers and steel TC bolsters.

Two traditional working knives from opposite sides of the Atlantic.

Which do you prefer?

Probably the Otter, but I like the bolster on the Tidioute a lot too.
