So who here samples cotton

[pertinux]

Indeed. Since I don't do that very often....

"Pardon me sir, may I please sample your cotton?"



Good luck getting even that far in these MidAtlantic states.

Er, maybe don't try.

Old school cotton sampling still goes on. We have a relative that a couple of generations ago that lost his mind and decided to quit cattle ranching and move to the Boot Heel to raise cotton. I have visited their operation over the years and learned all about the art of sampling cotton. While the buyers use more scientific methods you can still see the old method in use today. One of my cousins carries an old Remington handed down from his Father and Grandfather that looks very much like the Tony Bose pattern.

The picture I saw almost looks like a folding version of the Bark River Mini Canadian.

For some reason I want one, not sure if the blade would be useful for EDC tasks, but it's so cool
