JohnDF JohnDF finally, our musical debut with take me out to the ballgame
Very good :) :) :thumbsup:
I'm very sorry to hear your back pain has flared up. :confused:
Thanks mate, just one of those things unfortunately :( :thumbsup:

Yes I was, thanks a lot Jack!!! :)

Love the pastoral photo of your Random Tuesday Boker, a wonderful companion to your sweet Hartshead Barlow! 😁 ;) :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Many thanks JJ :) :thumbsup:

I've only seen that knife unused in photos here.
Great to seeing you put it to work 👍
o_O I'm afraid you've been asleep at the wheel...:D closer attention needed!

One of my big favourites too and despite its outlandish looks...very practical. This Creek gets a great deal of outdoor use as does a Camelbone Tidioute. However, I confess to having a couple of other Farmer's Jacks locked away for idol worshipping purposes too. If I could afford them I'd buy more , store more and use more :cool:

Hoping for a better day today.

Well yesterday I had my pockets stuffed with good luck charms, as well as a pair of old Barlows. I had a grand day planned to celebrate my winning the Hartshead Barlow in Mr. Jack's GAW, which I figured might be counting my chickens before they Hatched, but, I was confident in my good luck charms. 🍀 🍀

Early a.m. - I was on my way to breakfast at Granny's Diner and my tire sensor lamp on my Wrangler lit up the dashboard and alerted me that I only had 14 p.s.i. in my R.R. tire. Not to be side tracked from my breakfast, I went ahead as planned. After my breakfast, I stopped by a shop on the way home and learned I had run over a inch and a half long bolt, which was quickly repaired. After I returned home, Elijah was feeling poor and after a while I figured out he had a hair ball problem and gave him some medicine.

I took off on my walk and it had become quite windy. About half way through my walk, a gust of wind occurred and I felt a splat-splat. Did not take long to find I had fresh bird droppings in two places on my freshly ironed shirt and two more droppings on my britches. Changed my clothes when I got home and consoled my poor feeling Maine Coon.

Had a dinner planned with my close friends in Lexington, only after Elijah seemed to be feeling better.

Late afternoon and on my way to Lexington, not feeling at all deterred by my stunning GAW loss and determined to make the day a better day, I was off on my 45 mile journey. I arrived to meet my friends at Olive Garden and as I arrived, severe storm warning sirens were blaring. My trusty Frog Toggs jacket kept some of the driving rain off of me, as I ran across the parking lot.

One of my friends had followed her husband in her car and I learned that he went straight at a traffic light when she turned left and he did not have a phone with him. He arrived some two hours later, as we were all leaving the restaurant and after, surprisingly, enjoying a fine dinner, amid the discussions of possibly requesting a Golden Alert for the lost husband.

So my lucky charms have all been discarded and I will tote a single knife today, to remind me not to count my chickens before they Hatch. Fun GAW Mr. Jack, even though you didn't dig deep enough in that old English hat ! 😇🤣

Not going to win any beauty contests but it's one solid knife.

I think it’s beautiful. Sure wish we had voted for a spiral punch on that Buck 301 Forum Knife!
Didn't really need it for anything today, but it came along for the ride and did a fine job nonetheless.

I feel all hollow inside if at the end of the day, I realize that I had not used my knives!
Bought this a couple of days ago while on vacation in Reno. Today we were at Lake Tahoe...

The knife is now at the Post Office beginning it's trip home since it can't fly with me. 😩

Which is why I always fork over the extra $ to take a checked bag. I graciously leave room for my wife and daughter’s paraphernalia as an excuse.
Last time, we went to Denver, but my big suitcase took a three day side trip to Houston.
I survived the wait for the airline to deliver it by borrowing one of my son’s knives, but Mrs Fleshwund had a harder time without her war paint and other beauty supplies.
