It came from the big river in south America Jack,
has to be a knock off. It will take an edge and a beating though.

Maybe, but I'd be surprised Bob. When the Sheffield name has been added to the tang of knives made in the Far East, in the past several decades, it's generally been at the behest of Sheffield cutlers (even American shysters tend to be slightly more circumspect) :eek: The older (19th century and early 20th century) forgeries are usually marked Rodgers, and are generally rather garish, and not standard patterns. TEW have paddled in some very dodgy waters, but their foreign-made knives are generally easy to spot, because of the better fit and finish! :rolleyes: Sheffield has been exporting cheap, low-quality knives, for a long time now, and my guess would be that was one of them :thumbsup:

Yeah for me it's lower salt & reduced fat options. There are a lot of deceptive health foods, like low carb breads, often higher in salt than their own regular breads. I guess the marketers think people only look at the sugars.

Good for you Mitch :thumbsup: You're right, I remember when my eldest was a baby, looking at the sugar and salt content of rusks. The sugar content of the lowest 'Low Sugar' rusks here was 13%! :eek: I think the salt content was 5%. In both cases, this was greater than standard English biscuits, like Digestives :rolleyes: We decided to make our own rusks :thumbsup:

From what I've heard of your dentist the tongue depressor is not the only thing that's 19th century. :rolleyes:

Jack I will echo Jeff's opinion of your AC. Stag doesn't get any better. That little lamb is a dream.

I'm afraid she left me Pete! :eek:🤣🤣Says a lot about the firm who bought the practice, my dentist left, her dental nurse left, and the practice manager left! :eek: I'm sure some of the other dentists will have left too :( It doesn't bode well for the future, a lot of folks here can't even find a dental practice! 😠

Yep Jack, you have to check the labels on everything with the marketing BS.
People are that jumpy, we have strict laws & it's up to you to justify a legitimate reason. Like your neck of the woods there is always a media beat up & gang violence. I don't think they are interested in middle-aged guys with a Lambsfoot or a sak. You still see the occasional folder pouch on belts. As you know common sense approach, where there is not much common sense left😉😉

New phone camera takes good photos 👍
Have a good day Jack!

Sorry to hear you and your missus are under the weather Bill, wishing you a speedy recovery :thumbsup: Carrying your Hartshead Barlow should definitely help :thumbsup:

I haven't seen any flavoured sunflower seeds on sale here yet. Good idea, they're a healthy snack, but they benefit from a bit more flavour I think :thumbsup:

I think I could probably find them somewhere else a lot cheaper, and they're far from my ideal storage solution, but they've saved me at least 2 shelves worth of space Barrett :thumbsup:

He's on there, buying, all the time, but not only does he not right-click, he doesn't do email! 😖


Don't make him angry Paul! :D Great pic buddy :) :thumbsup:

Thanks Jack. Every day and in every way I'm getting better and better😁. Missus is too:thumbsup:.
