I randomly found this while looking for the hearing aid I'd dropped. (Found that, too.)
 
A 1980 two-springed '47. The springs are carbon.

I've gone further off church meals. There was a breakfast a couple weeks ago, I managed to get to it, there was plenty of food left, and all the food looked good.
But there was a geezer in front of me leaning over all the food as he chatted about it with the server. I didn't get this old by eating random geezer spume.

Thanks!
I have two toolboxes full of old carbon kitchen/butcher knives, so the choice of toolbox was random, too. I still buy such knives when I see them reasonably priced and respectably conditioned, but that doesn't happen as often as it used to. Maybe most of the people who inherited them have died.
I was surprised to find two Chinese cleavers in the bottom of this toolbox, one of them showing real hammer marks.

Just the same here, I used to be able to pick up butcher/kitchen knives, carving sets, and kitchen cutlery, readily, and inexpensively. That has really changed in the last decade, but then there are barely any fleamarkets left here 🙄

Yes, and I'm expecting the antique malls to be replaced by unaffordable thrift shops.
Just another example of why they call me Sunbeam.
