Good to see somebody doing it properly and maintaining tradition and occasionI did it properly this morning proper strong tea,I brewed it for 5 minutes see lable.
I also took the strainer out of the tea pot so I could use the tea strainer (details make it).
I like plain and simple with everything except tea cups they have to be a bit dainty for the tea to taste correct (though anything is better than the plastic mugs we had in the Army).
They also remind you of days gone by as a child.

Fantastic pic Jake
Yep. Gotta go with Texas home team. Boston is the "Evil Empire"!Bold prediction, Vince!When you made it, I was still rooting for the Braves and Astros (or maybe more accurately, rooting against the Dodgers and Red Sox). I'll bet we're both glad you turned out to be wrong about Boston.

So am I lots of 71s here today,love em all.
That's a bit special.Carried the forum Barlow until the mail arrived, then this pocket worn Case Barlow came, ran it over the ceramic rods to knock down the toothy edge it came with, a drop of rem oil in each joint and VIOLA!!! I never cared for stainless until a few years back, that said, I have an appreciation for Case Tru Sharp
The fit and finish is very good, zero play in either blade and both centered nicely. I enjoy the pocket worn knives that Case offers and this has a nice dark red to the covers.

I play records at home,kids nowadays wouldn't want to get up off the sofa and turn it over every 25 minutes.Good to see somebody doing it properly and maintaining tradition and occasionI was shocked by how many people in Britain just dunk some tea-bag in a dull mug, such slovenly behaviour, but then I saw Boris Johnson doing it so the lazy aspect made sense
The Bullnose is a fine pattern, very sturdy but not weighty in the pocket, well finished and versatile too.
Thanks, Will
