What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Excellent idea. I think someone said the box was at 17 pounds, not too long ago?

I think I'm going to stay out.
I see a lot of teensy tiny knives in the picture I'd never carry.
With my "luck" (note quotes) those would be in the box I won, along with a note saying "Congratulations! Keep them all!" or words to that effect.

If I won the send it on box, I wouldn't be able to send it out until January 02, 2022 which is way NOT timely. (presuming I could get a staff member to go to the postal, get a flat rate box, take it back to postal after I filled it, in the first place.)

Also, I'd rather not take a chance I would be able to get a member of staff to help me send it on.
We're still under the Covid's lockdown. With that new edition that recently came out, I don't see the Governor Little lifting his assisted living lockdown in the foreseeable future, residents vaccinated or not. ☹️
Why take a chance on getting one of the staff to get what I need at the postal, and sending it out, since I can't do it myself?

Since I'm almost as old as rocks today (and still a little younger than dirt), I decided to carry my only knife with rock covers (RR1419 Stoneworx "large" (only/just 4 inch closed) Stockman) to commemorate the event.
Don't know what I'm going to carry if I get as old as dirt. I don't have a knife with dirt covers.
The SAK Evo Grip 14, Mini Champ, the Toferner Celtic Pocket/Neck Knife, and Leatherman Charge+ TTI are also helping commemorate or celebrate my waking up alive every morning for the last 67 years. 😊👍
(No doubt my ex and a few others will have a bigger celebrate when I quit waking up alive. In the mean time, it kinda sorta fun ticking them off that I am.😁)

Beautiful pictures Ed. 😎👍

…and man they snap open with authority.
😎👍

Thanks Bart. They are pretty cool, I’m hoping for some little ones again. It’s been 10 years since we had a hatch. 😊


That knife looks good in Ebony Mark. 😎👍

Such a cool shot. 😊👍

I spend 16 hours dreaming about the next knife I can’t live without! 🤣🤣🤣

Very cool shot Jim. I’ve seen them snag a fish on our lake too. And to think that they were almost extinct when I was a kid, it’s amazing to see them.

Happy birthday! 🎉

Thank you Todd :)
 
I carried this one again today. I made a couple horn beads this week, so I swapped the antler bead for one of those.

Jinhao 992 fountain pens. The black has a Jinhao cartridge black ink. The gray has Noodlers 54th MA., in the included with the pen ink converter, which is a "Union" blue. Supposed to "fade to gray over time". I don't know how long that "over time" is. I do know it isn't the drying time.
They are acrylic pens, so are nowhere close to the tonnage of the Brass barrel and cap X450's.
I like the classic fatter "Cigar"/"Torpedo" shape over the skinny and square end pens.

Congrats on the new home Tyson. Nice case companion, did you bring along a special pen for signing too?

Awesome colors on those covers Todd, and the bead and slip are top notch too. Have turtles came out of hibernation yet? We have a local pond near by that I haven’t visited in about 6 weeks, I’ll have to visit it soon and keep an eye out for turtles, I’ve seen them before, it was warmer weather from what I recall. We had some snow this morning on the foot hills of the benches… I guess spring has not fully sprung yet.

The beads you’re making are really nice Bart, they look great with that old Case.

Thanks Ralph. I don’t think they have completely come out yet. We’ve had a few warmer days and they may have dug out but they will dig back in if it gets cold again. I leave the leaves in the enclosure until about mid April for that reason.

I don’t think it has either, they have flurries in the forecast for tomorrow. 🙄

"Too soon" whenever it is. 👎
Almost as exciting as watching paint dry and/or watching the weeds growing in the sidewalk cracks ...☹️
