That's a shame, Skol was at his best when new I think. I would have done the same though I think

I usually erase all the pictures of a knife once I've given it away.
I never want to look back at pictures and realize how dumb I was for getting rid of a good knife. 🤣

Technically not totin but on the desk beside me. Jeff Amir Fleschwund Amir Fleschwund I figured you would like this one, since you like the 25OT and Schrade knives. It needs a little TLC and an edge touch up but still has plenty of snap when opening and closing.View attachment 1868761

You figured right, my friend! And I realized that my Craftsman version of the 250OT needs some action, so I think I will let the Opi off the hook, and slip this in my pocket instead.395AD373-1505-4DFD-8391-E73B29422937.jpeg
And since that makes the blades of the bug Case Trapper redundant, I’ll complete the switcheroo and use a TL-29 instead🤪07B63418-48C1-40C0-9E13-1CA6B09F3CF4.jpeg
 
Gonna be a hot one today. On the way home from town yesterday, I turned on the truck's air conditioning for the first time this year. Promptly went from 15 miles per gallon to 14 miles per gallon. Decided on another Bull Nose for today. All I'm gonna do today is put the soaker hose on the tree we had trimmed back to give it plenty of water to help it recover from shock. Yep, that's right. The guy that trimmed the tree said, trimming back a tree drastically will put the tree in shock and water is the best thing to help it recover.

For Tuesday, a couple of old knives I recently acquired and spent time cleaning up and then forcing a patina back on them. An old Camillus 4 line bare-head Jack in Cocobolo and a Schrade Walden 186 Pruning knife. The Schrade had a broken tip (about a quarter inch) and I corrected that a bit, among other things. ☺️

I had a revelation on my recent trip from Illinois to Colorado in my Crosstrek. It has a gas mileage program that’s dead on accurate ~ I can see what I’m getting in the moment, or average.
All kinds ‘o whizbang features!🤪
I like to drive with the windows down, but to get a break from the wind noise and heat, I used the AC. My mileage average went from 39 with the windows open, to over 42 with the windows closed, and the AC on. I guess the drag of open windows has more effect on mpg than the AC compressor.
