Took advantage of being in Orlando and grabbed some white castles
I like how the color and speckling on the rail compliments the knife. Great composition and perspective too. And really like the Farmer Lock!Happy Friday![]()

Thanks Ross, that kind of youThank you, Jack! I hope you are feeling better.
Good luck EdHeaded to town for yet another doctors appointment for Cindy and then on to the usual stops except for the Post Office. It looks like cod fish at the Brass Rail Restaurant for lunch and then a short ride around town and home. It's back to a Sowbelly today. Coffee only this morning.

Nice! I would love to track down a decent deal on one of those. I have a green one, but the amber just gets me.

Thank you very much, Jack!!! I was digging through a knife drawer and ran across them.Delightful pairing JJ, I don't recall seeing it before? Two outstanding vintage beauties![]()

What makes it OK for school out of interest?I usually carry this one to work, then swap to my Lambsfoot when I get home.
The lil' Rattler fits the legal requirements for working at a school.
We are going to a HS football game, so I have to swap out my Lambsfoot.
Might as well carry my work knife to the game, should be a nice night for some football.

I get more satisfaction using them as well.Carried the 86 yesterday and added a Remington for todays pairing. Last night I decided to quit babying the 86 and started some blade patina on grilled chicken & limes. Gonna give more pocket time from here on. Its a damn sturdy knife and deserving of use.
