Yer dog says “ Quit Maserin around with your knife, and take me for a walk!”
I need SOME in my life...;)

Beautiful knives, Barehead is best for this material. There was some Brown Snakeskin Acrylic a few years ago that looked somehow similar? Or are the delusions overtaking me....o_O:D

Thanks, Will
“Delusions overtaking me”...
1656510180564.jpegI can relate. I play guitar for a singer/songwritee, and we’re working on a new set list of all originals. She says “here, let me play my CD for you so you can hear how it goes. When I hear the guitar woek of the hotshot guitarist she had in the studio, the Delusions Overtake me when I say “I can play that”.
Lucky for me, she says “you sound great!”, so I just play, and don’t try to sound like the pro.🤪
For Wooden Wednesday. Today is Wednesday, isn't it ? 🤔 ☺️

Nice to see you’re bonding with the old girl.
Much history there.
What is the closed length?
 
“… Nice to see you’re bonding with the old girl.

Thanks! Bonding indeed … I am impressed by how much pep she still has - not snapping like a gator but there is a crisp little snap to all blades and zero wobble all around … not sure if I got lucky or they were just making them that well?
Closed she comes in at 3-5/16” … works for me.

Mosquito Creek, Boone County, Illinois, and Schrade Walden 294 and Victorinox 7.
On my way to Twin Lakes, Wisconsin to get seaweed🤪. The lakehouse denizens rake it up off their beaches and pile it up on the road where the town crews pick it up. Since we’re coming up on a holiday weekend when they’ll be getting their beaches cleaned up so their grandkids can swim, I should make a good haul. I use it for mulch in my garden. It keeps the weeds down, keeps the soil moist, and ir must be high in nitrogen, because the plants love it. Otherwise, I use hay and straw, but that’s full of oat and grass seed. Plus, you have to grill the farmers about their use of herbicides. There’s one horrible chemical concoction called Grazon that will kill your garden for decades. It’s hard and expensive to find organic hay and oat straw, so no matter what the farmers say, I always compost the bales before using them in my gardenn. At leadt that kills the seeds, and if there are herbicides, most will break down after composting. I know they don’t use chemicals in the lake because the Wisconsin Dept of Natural Resources fornids it. That makes the seaweed pure organic goodness.72E1597E-669A-4A19-BDE0-0970E955D674.jpeg651649CE-5A96-4118-B07F-8D6D403C8C93.jpegI hope all my prochist friends have a fine day!
 
If I remember correctly, that creek is aptly named.
Least wise it was the last time I was there back in the late 60's with family.
Yep, the little bloodsuckers had a hatch a couple of weeks ago. I should go down to the Kishwaukes River, which muddy little Mosquito Creek flows into, and go wading for smallmouth, but I have chores...

Are you from this area?
