I can’t stop carrying this knife and I Guess that’s a good thing 👍🏻 This taggedout is definitely one of if not my favorite BM’s to date .This one came sharp as a scalpel also being pretty much a flat grind . I think it’s because it’s so thin behind the edge and the geometry also being magnacut topped with a beautiful edge they put on it .

G'morning!
Yesterday my daughter and I were driving around the neighboring areas of the city. And we stopped in the settlement of Farforovsky Post.

This is a small historical quarter located between the railways.

Once in the second half of the 19th century, when the Nikolaevskaya railway (St. Petersburg - Moscow) was built, this station was the last one when leaving St. Petersburg. In the 1890s, three dozen two-story brick houses with apartments for railway workers were built here.

After the revolution, in 1926, a marshalling yard was organized here and more houses were built.

Of them, only two have survived, and one is already abandoned.

This quarter is like a time capsule. Many houses are abandoned, but people still live here, the descendants of those very railway workers. Trains pass close to the houses.

Is it common NOT to paint wooden houses? John
 
I dressed lightly again today as I started putting things back together in the basement/sheetmetal shop after getting things about 99% dried out down there. I thought to carry light and slim IWB today with my GM3 but grabbed the ACE Biblio right next to it instead as it's been a long time since I've carried it. It's definitely chunkier than its neighbor and has a bit of heft for a small knife, but Its thin, broad, FFG blade is wicked slicey and would be a good companion if I got to slaying the huge pile of still-dry cardboard piled up behind the brake. I didn't get that far, but did get a few things squared away.
