Before the invention of Q Tips,(shows ya how old the knife is) they used earpicks to scoop wax out of your ear. I originally thought it was a coke spoon.

Q-Tips® were invented in the 1920's by a Polish-born American named Leo Gerstenzang.

:eek:

And mom always got on to me for using a key!
 
I think the spoon would be the way to go. Many folks pack the wax in their ears using q-tips. I have stuck pointy metal objects into peoples ears. :eek: As a medic in the Air National Guard. To clean the wax out. Nasty job. :barf:

Very nice knives. Beautiful. :)
 
ear wax? this is killing my appetite for lunch.

I did not know thats what the little "spoons" are for.

..is a knife with character! Really sweet! Looks like it's used - like it was meant to be.

I went to WalMart looking for a Schrade or two, and they didn't have any - especially one as nice as that trapper!

Lucky Dog.
