The comb is so slim you hardly notice it’s there, but I get that it’s hard to overlook the weirdness of a comb. I like it even with the comb, and it keeps my ‘stache tamedI also like the jigged bone and color on the Urban Jacks.
If it wasn't for the comb, I'd still have one in both cover options.
It would have been one of their best knives ever with two blades.
You’re gonna have to carry that lighter a little more if you want them to match.These two are becoming fast friends. View attachment 1850804
I hope you get to feeling better soon, Ed. I can see from the picture, at least you’ve still got your sense of humorFighting a head-cold that came on evening before last that I got weed whacking in the cold wind and then getting caught out in the rain so, it's a blank board today. Just too sluggish to get motivated to do anything.

Looks great, John. It will look even better with a little patina.
Sincere thanks JJ, Merle will be setting off on a short journey to Scotland today, to stay withThank you for your very kind comment, Jack!!!![]()

Wow!
Nice choice John, I'm looking forward to carrying mine again
Should this one be the this one today ... so be it
I'll find it if I have to tear this house apart
But twice first I'll check my pocket

What species is the evergreen? I have not seen cones like those before?
Thanks
Love the Ichthys on that stag!
I am currently on the sunshine and rainbows end…. But I know there’s a pile of the latter when I return to work

More 'mature'.That's a lot more 'bruised' than my 66 which is just 'ripe'

Great to see that one out and about John. I think it would look good with patina.
Yeah, unfortunately times like that seem to be too short and the mess we return to at work is often very unpleasant. Thankfully, it is only temporary but does usually require a large amount of work to restore order. Happy (early) anniversary, that 88 is awesome!Love the Ichthys on that stag!

An anniversary/weight loss-progress gift ‘from the Mrs.’ (not until the 28th but celebrated Tuesday) - went to a very nice restaurant; with three little ones we take what we can get when we can get it.
It’s already putting in some food work

Thank you for digging into this and the additional photos. Unique the cones grow up instead of hanging down to allow the wind to carry the seed. Also the cone color is unique.RLB0414 according to the plant identifier app I tried it's a type of Fir
Her family remembers it being called a Korean fir. After further web surfing we unanimously agreed it must be a Silverlock Korean Fir.
