George Washington and his penknife

Great story, I love hearing about the links and impacts these little pocket companions have had throughout history.
 
Interesting read.
I thought George Carried a Barlow? At least during the war?

SO much myth and legend about the man. Who knows what is myth and what is fact?

I think his most important legacy/presidence is he stepped down as President after his second term.
No Presidential term limits back then. He could have kept the job for life.

That story sounds like a load of Bunker Hill to me.

Still, a very nice old pen knife. I wonder if Jack Black Jack Black could offer any insight into who the manufacturer might be.
 
Always obey your superiors - that used to mean a lot ;). Now if I can just get my 13 year old to mow the lawn…😂 Great article thanks for sharing.
