Only A2, JJ (I'm a fan).

Haven't seen Josiah around here in a while - but he makes a fine knife. Hope he's ok.

Roland.


Thanks a lot, Roland. Your little post sent me on an all-day quest to try to find one of Josiah's gentle little "Camp Knives", which I eventually located in one of the truck boxes.

A little 1/4" 5160 "camp" action...

LIke you, I miss Josiah and hope that he is doing well. ❤️

Walking by the Hollywood cemetery and a huge festival thing is happening - couldn’t help supporting a local punk rocker / artist selling paintings and other items.. this is the best time of the year - UF is the best dog walking companion I can think of.
