Betcha can't guess what I'm doing today while I'm carrying my old reliable # 73 Scout Trapper

It's been snowing every day since Christmas Eve almost all day every day. The trip to town yesterday was a bit arduous what with the snow on the roads. They had been plowed a couple of times but at the rate the snow is/was falling, it is hard for the road crews to keep up. Oh well, Navy Bean soup for dinner last night with spaghetti coming tonight.

Wish I had my old tractor but alas, I sold it a couple/three years ago. Boy oh boy!!!! Don't I wish the place looked like this today.

Wow, nice Texas Jack Paul, stay warm!

Sleety/Slushy today, so I'll be sticking close to home. Calls for something easy in the pocket... ;)

That’s a pretty 62 Jim, snakewood and a leaf shield, nice combo. 😎👍

I was sure you where going to say you went to the Wagon Wheel café.😁


Navy Bean soup,I am intrigued I have a feeling that may well be tasty,whats in it besides beans of course?😂
 
Still & still undecided what to start the new year with. Pair of GEC? What I carried back in '62? (Not the same knife; it's long gone. However I do have one of the same model.) GEC and Buck stag? ...

I was watching a Norwegian woodsman in a YouTube video last night.

He got one of those dinky little neck knives out to eat his boiled egg.

Which he had cooked over a open fire encased in sphagnum moss.

I have been thinking of getting a hand forged one for myself.


Coming to the point do you find it useful and what do you use it for?

I do find it useful.
I've used it to cut pork chops, turkey breast, roast beef, or chicken sharpen a pencil, scrape a decal off, open a Amazon box and padded envelope ... just minor things. I haven't started whittlin' yet. I need to get some suitable wood/wood scraps. However, I imagine it would work for that, as well.
