Thanks! I have to treat my Math mistakes like my spelling mistakes in literature and mispronounced words in speech—when a student notices you praise them for finding the Easter egg you left for themHope it goes by fat for ya.
I'm always afraid I'll do something stupid and get caught pulling it out of my pocket or something.
No you're not.
Welcome to the math teaching club.
Excellent point!
Willie’s Roadhouse is one of my favorite stations. Such great music! Your knives are just as good!Just got back from taking some mail to the P.O. and was listening to Willie's Roadhouse which was playing a Tom T. Hall song . Do you folks remember Old Dogs and Children and Watermelon Wine ? One of my all time favorites . It reminded me of the many old dogs that we have had , our children , and Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren and my 2 favorite GEC knives . It just so happens that I had them , and still do , in my pockets . My first GEC and my first 73 . Pictured below on another 2022 Calendar photo of Grandfather Mountain , N.C.

That's a fantastic pic JJ, I love the way the BSA shield pops!
Fabulous pair of knives my friend 
Have a good day everyone 
The little one is a Boker plus, which I think means China, even though it's 440C instead of 440A. Very good fir and finish, though strange proportions with the large shield and tangs.
(Otherwise, Kutmaster, Camillus, Case.)
Beauty reclines.
Well, the pattern is none too ugly either....
No complaints here, even if it weren't an un-birthday gift horse.A lot of the Boker Plus knives are 440C Jer. I've been very pleased with the ones I've had (mainly FBs), apart from a Barlow, which had poor fit and finish
Looks good JerNo complaints here, even if it weren't an un-birthday gift horse.
Qualifies for what a now sadly defunct manufacturer used to call Our Very Best

organized a deeply impressive SFO for which I'll be eternally grateful. I use the Jigged Bone version and worship the Ivory Bone at home 
Hear! Hear!Certainly one of GEC's finest efforts: all steel. Rat-Tail, Ivory Bone, resurrected pattern, right shield. Lyle @wlfryjr organized a deeply impressive SFO for which I'll be eternally grateful. I use the Jigged Bone version and worship the Ivory Bone at home
