Great pair for traveling. Enjoy your trip, Todd.

Got it in the mail saturday, from my god-daughter. A marbles " sailor knife". Don't know the model number, but it has sheepsfoot blade, can opener, and a bail. Made out of stainless steel( china). Reminds me of a demo knife. Quality seems ok, time will tell. Definitely adds some weight to the pocket. Probably get a belt pouch for it sometime soon.

Thank you!

The plant is a low growing variety of Sedum.

Thank you

This pruner holds the vaunted distinction of giving me the worst (traditional!) knife cut I've ever had. I've been keeping that in mind while pruning around the house here lately.

Thank you Mr P, it's desert ironwood Lucy carries a couple of 'puncture marks'!

She's OK now thankfully

Lucy Westenra sure kept her lace tidy.

I'm liking the patina on this one.

A biter you say. Take it out back and give it a thrashing and it might behave itself !
Nice pruner, BTW !

You ain't fooling me Mr. Jack ! That is ketchup.
Kind of hilarious though.
I guess what someone sees depends on the beholder, but, the more I look at those covers, the more it looks like a Wolverine (like Predator Wolverine ) peering out the handle of your lamb.
You better get to guarding all your lambs closer, is what I thought !

Usefulness is never a flaw, nor goes out of style
And this neglected but otherwise well put together little knife fights well above its weight
I like it WAY more than I should for an inexpensive often denigrated tool
Éirinn go Brách ...

That one's plumb dangerous, I tell ya! I'm exercising caution, though, and striving to limit the pruning to vegetation only. I've still got all my digits and I'm resolving to keep them.

Big boy today.

Just caught up on about 80 pages in this thread. Sorry for all the like/replies to weeks-old posts! I need to do a better job keeping up!



So sorry for your loss, Taylor. Thank you, too, for your kind words about our Maggie in the knives and dogs thread, which I don’t think I ever actually replied to.



Might be one of the best looking Opinels I’ve seen. Very cool!



They did end up a nice shade of green, didn’t they?



Very nice, Will. I have a similar knife, can’t remember the brand off the top of my head, but I think mine might have been made somewhere a bit east of Spain. Still a nice pattern and handy little knife.



Great photo!



That’s a cool hobo knife, GT!



Awesome photo! I like that #65, but wish they’d done that one in 1095.



That’s something that’s been interesting for me here in Minnesota. Last year there was a big hubbub about Lake Minnetonka being several inches low, and they closed the dam, and Minnehaha Falls (which are part of the creek that flows out of Minnetonka) temporarily dried up.

The (man-made) lake I grew up on in Arkansas could fluctuate several feet. There’s a highway bridge over the part of the lake near where we lived, and the lake surface could be 15 feet or more from the bottom of the bridge, but when the water’s high it can get to where you can’t make it under the bridge in a boat.



Beautiful knives, Jim.



I know we have the eye-roll emoji but I feel like there should be an eye-roll “reaction.”



So that’s how they keep her going!



Always thought the Muslin Micarta looked great on the #71; one of my favorite versions of one of my favorite patterns.



Perhaps one of the most convincing English accents by an American actor, eh?



Wait, you mean it wasn’t a good accent?!



That looks tasty! Are those potatoes in there?

I’ve enjoyed your posts from your continental adventure.



Cool photo, Jack.



They're cool knives, but not really the best designed fork, is it?



Love that pic (and knife)!!

I’ve been carrying these two a lot lately. I should probably switch it up soon.

Yes patatas in a tortilla absolutely delicious.

It's been touch and go at times John!

Another great working knife

Lucy Westenra sure kept her lace tidy.

Until Van Helsing went and messed it up!

A biter you say. Take it out back and give it a thrashing and it might behave itself !

Shhh,,,Lucy is still around!

Oh no, I hope she's not morphing!
