Ah, good work Thanks buddy

Thanks, Todd. I'll bet yours has a little more patina on it.

It came Pre-patinaed, in order words, perfect.

More awesome pics here. That breakfast, yum, and the IRJ continues to impress.

Thanks Jeremy.

I have to admit, Todd -- this photo really struck my funny bone this morning. I think we all become so accustomed to taking photos of our knives that we get to the point where we don't even think about it. Still, I had to wonder what your fellow diners were thinking when you laid your knife down on top of your breakfast and started snapping photos!

Well Jim, if I drew any attention at all it was when I was swiveling around in all directions to see if anyone was watching BEFORE I pulled out my knife for the picture.

Great picture and amazing looking breakfast.

Harry eats there... they're probably used to it.

Exactly!

Happy Monday Everybody
This pair just felt right today

Looks right also.

Late to the party Todd but much congrats to your Daughter and of course Dad
Beautiful pictures also my friend!

Thanks a lot Ed.

Fantastic pics Todd I'd have shelled out $125 for the double-bit axe, why did anyone have to make it into 'art', that's quite a price tag?!


That's a shame, but it looks like you ate well I'd have had to take in The Car On The Ice!

It was tempting, especially since our car has almost 200,000 miles on it.

What's the SAK John? I'm carrying my Hartshead Barlow and my Electrician today

That picture of your HHB looks really striking Jack, is it a different camera or just the light?

 

[JohnDF]

Looks right also.

Thank you, my friend.
Be safe driving home today, and stay off the ice.

Speaking of the “Wise One,” Harry and I weren’t able to meet for breakfast before we headed home this morning, bummed about that, but we did take his advice about driving on the ice and a breakfast place. Thanks Harry, Egg Harbor was fantastic! View attachment 1747956View attachment 1747958
I’m a sucker for Carnitas, and with eggs, yummy! Kinda surprised you didn’t recommend your own place Harry. View attachment 1747957

All the years I lived in Michigan I never drove a car on a frozen lake. I don't know if it still happens, but when I was growing up there'd be two or three end up in the bottom of Lake St. Clair every year. And ice shanties. And snowmobiles

Probably nobody noticed. I was in an auto repair shop today scheduling a mandatory safety inspection for my truck. There were half dozen customers in the place and when I looked around, to a man, they were absorbed with their phones and oblivious to their surroundings. I could have pulled a parrot out of my pocket and took a pic and I don't think they would have noticed

Found these old grass shears at my dads house. Had fallen back behind a shelf and sat there for the last 40+ years. Cleaned them up & ready to go. Pretty sure they are same ones I used when I was a teenager. Have a great week.

They don't make them like that anymore

I really love the actions on these little gerbers, the half stop they have just gives them a nice feel.
I also like how they left off the nail nick since it doesn't need one, too often is there a nail nick on lockbacks that don't really need one.

You are very lucky to see those bears,I expect you have to keep well away from the cubs for safety?

We just kind of stayed where we were and they walked by on the other side of the street. We were definitely cognizant of the fact that she might act different with the cubs.

Nope. Enviro greenies might not want to watch, but if Yogi and it’s brood break down my door and start rummaging through my leftovers, I’m getting a new bearskin rug.

I’m with you, although I don’t generally bring guns on ski vacations. Fortunately we haven’t had to deal with that situation yet.

What about some snowboarding Bart?

The place we usually go burned in that fire last summer and hasn’t opened up this winter.

Looks fun, last time I went ice skating I only lasted 30 minutes because my feet hurt so bad.

We went for a couple hours and my legs were like jello at the end. I’m way too tense.

Very cool pictures, such beautiful animals, it breaks my heart to see them digging through trash and breaking into houses for food.

Thanks, Todd. It was very cool to see the cubs climbing trees and wrestling in the grass, but disappointing to see them reliant on breaking into houses and dumpster diving and no one seems to try to solve the problem. Both side gates on the house we rent are broken down from the bears passing through.

Remove the wheels and strap the boards to your feet... I'm sure that's how snowboarding got started.

Next time!

Glad to see you're having a good time in Tahoe. We were in Truckee yesterday and there's not a whole lot of snow.
The Bear League has really done the bears a disservice in Tahoe.

Thanks, John. Not nearly enough snow for February.
The whole bear situation here is a mess, and it’s only made worse by people that think they’re helping.

One more shot of the soda scout before we head home.

Looks like your old school bat signal is going off.

Thank you, Jack.

You both look like you're having a fun time.
I'm with Harry, I wouldn't drive on it... heck, you'd have to talk me into walking on it.

They've always been a problem, it's just getting worse.

Very true John

But years from now you kids won’t know that, still to this day my kids remind me that I quit after 30 minutes.

I know, to me digging through our garage is beneath them, but then I don’t have to deal with Bear issues so I’m sure others feel differently.

Great knife Bart, have a safe trip home.
