Two fine knives for the berry pickin' Jeff !Just a part of the plant. The stems of blackberries, raspberries, and black raspberries are called canes. Leaves, berries, and THORNS all grow on the canes. Berries are born on second year canes, this year’s new canes will bear fruit next year. After that the cane dies.
I’ve been pruning dead canes, clearing competing weeds, and mulching heavily with woodchips in my little patch of woods, and I think it’s paying off. Here’s my purple lipped berry pickin partner. Here’s today’s harvest for which I gave bloodView attachment 1861483

Thanks Mr PAll of the right stuff for the celebration, including the old bottle opener !
I found it a little odd that the cake was missing.![]()
I can only judge from what folks post here, but Goins seems to be an absolute mine of misinformation!It is an old stag pruning knife, with iron bolsters and liners. The maker was T. Turner & Co., Sheffield, England.
According to Goins, the Encore and Cutlers to his Majesty stamp was used from 1830-1837. Deciphering the way the Turner information was listed by Goins is about as clear as mud.![]()
Thomas Turner were one of Sheffield's best-known cutlers Mr P, they made a good knifeI can say that it is a knife of very high quality and still functions admirably. The blade and bolster patina on this knife are as found.
LOL!Thank you my friend, it was a little more trouble than I expected to get it outside and set up.![]()
Thanks, Jack!Nice pairing Rachel![]()
