The wrench is stamped "pocket wrench" and about 4 inches long when retracted. Made very slim, works great and has a nice patina.;)

Hope everyone's day is going OK. My week is off to a great start as I took receipt of a fantastic package from the multi-talented CelloDan CelloDan :) Inside was a pile of literature about Dan's beautiful locale, a special bottle-opener, key-ring, and two absolutely incredible hand-turned bowls :eek: Is there no end to the feller's talents? :cool: Many thanks Dan, the beautiful bowls will have pride of place in my humble home :) :thumbsup:

I thought flatblackcapo flatblackcapo would enjoy this account of an early London cyclist who was accosted by a fellow who ‘apparently had been imbibing’ and who ‘addressed some insulting remarks to her’.

The Illustrated Police News of July 1899, reported that she ‘immediately alighted... and gave him a sound thrashing, using her fists in Scientific Fashion, to the delight of several colliers who happened to be passing’.

The young woman, who was ‘believed to be a Bolton Lady, noted for her Athletic Powers, then rode off towards Tydesley’ and into the ranks of those wonderful, nameless characters in the marginalia of English literature, like Coleridge’s infamous ‘Man from Porlock’, and DeQuincy’s anonymous Malay, who appeared at the door of his cottage in Grasmere in Cumbria’s Lake District in 1812, and shared some opium with him - enough to kill ‘three dragoons and their horses’ - then ‘lay on the floor for about an hour, before pursuing his journey’.

Took the big 'un out for a bowl of Vietnamese Pho.

Thanks for that Chin. Just the term " sound thrashing" makes me chuckle every time.
Ya gotta love a big ol' bowl of Pho. I feel lucky that we have a good selection of Pho restaurants around here.

Gary, you may have missed your calling as a poet. Haha, thanks for your creative comments.

Ahhh yip I've heard of a Monkey Fist. I'm sure I read somewhere that people would make one around a musket ball/small calibre cannon shot for a little extra oompf.
A nice sunny shot of the Waynorth there.

Yeah, you most definitely want to keep a close eye on one of those things if a line is being thrown your way. I can see how it would be a effective weapon. Hmmm, now I am curious where the name "monkey fist" came from.

One of my buddies brought me over a fine loaf of his homemade bread. It has a good hearty crust on it but Betty made short work of slicing off a taste. Have a great week, all my fellow Guardians.

Well, the "euphoric fog" of getting a new knife has cleared, and I think this knife has some issues that need to be resolved. The above link has more pictures. If you look at the close up of the crooked tang in the bolster, that loose pin could get looser as the tang keeps catching on it, and quickly become a problem preventing the blade from closing.

I'm going to ask Michael if I can send it back to be fixed, or given a refund. I'll keep y'all posted on this.

natchezz natchezz - Kirk, I didn't get squat when clicking your link - probably my problem. Could you please post them up here directly?

Hi Jack, it's the ocularis system from Simple shot that they use for some of their models. Very easy to change bands. The slingshot it's a Jelly Bean model courtesy of @Crazy Canuck :thumbsup::)


Thank you Ron :)!
