Traditional Knives on Desks

Been exactly one year in our new office after being in a trailer for 20 + years. Still trying to get used to being in such a nice place.

I keep two knives on my desk at work, very unconventional and nothing special to anyone other then me. I’m the type of person that just can’t throw a broken knife away, it’s just not in my heart. The two knives I have had for many many years now. The top one is a Barlow from Imperial Prov RI, when I was younger I snapped the main blade off and I was devastated. This knife using the Pen blade now opens my mail. The other knife is the 1st knife that I bought myself, it is a Case Hornet that I carried everywhere and used it foe everything. I broke the tip off cleaning a deer, tried to get Case to repair it but it was long out of stock and the extra blades had all been used up. This knife I keep sharp and is a mean box cutter.

Hey Chuck - you could fashion that tipped Case lockblade into a wharncliffe really easy. If you have access to a grinder , belt sander ... I've even done it with a file - doesn't take long, just some elbow grease. Would make for a cool looking little box cutter (just about like a GEC carver blade) ...

From today at my desk...
Brought the Mudbug in to show a coworker.
Shhhhh.... Not supposed to have big locking knives at work. ;)
I kept the Mudbug in the box, "Mr. Simple" was out for apple cutting duties.
