That Thin Finn is patinaing (word?) nicely.
I think that’s from my sweat where it’s getting warmer haha. I’m digging it though!

Thank you, I really enjoy the size and the fact that if I want to tell time I need to remember to wind it.
One of these days I'm going to get a Speedmaster.Even though I have other knives and watches, these two somehow became my go to pieces

new watch chain with 'Tree of Life' center charm, and "T" bar for button whole.
Elgin H.H. Taylor Grade 79 key whined/set size 18S, from 1885.
(Current) watch chain knife is an SAC Evo Grip 14.
The can opener and scissors are handy to have. Tho to be honest, I could put a different knife on the chain, since I have a SAK Hercules on my belt loop, which has a can opener and scissors ... (along with saw, several screwdrivers, pliers ...)
Isle probably change out the Evo Grip for a 1 or 2 blade pen knife with a bail, eventually.

Fountain pen is a circa 1947~1948 Waterman's "Ideal" lever fill with a 14K Number 2 semi-flex EF/F nib.
My only FP with a real gold nib.

celebrating that which is common,
a workhorse wrist watch, a multi-use pocket knife and a give away lighted ball point pen,
all ordinary, all reliable, all useful

I mite be retired, however, I been using "military time" for over 35 years. "Retirement" don't seem like a valid excuse to stop.
