Sunday, and the blue bone MCH is the knife of choice today:

Beautiful Ed. Every time I see it I wonder why I sold mine.
 
Scored the wood scaled sodbuster at the gunshow this morning. Had to give it a try on this beautiful springlike afternoon.

Play clothes and dress clothes:

(A metaphor; no dress clothes were required today, fortunately.)

I had "help" outside this time, starting with someone's bumping my camera hand with his head...

... then quickly escalating when I evidently did not divert my attentions to his satisfaction:

One cannot make these things up:

Paul, I meant to comment on your knife in my previous post, but lost my concentration and didn't get it in there, but that is probably the best looking Case trapper I have ever seen. If I've seen a better one, I can't remember it; superb, just superb!

Precisely what I was thinking. A stunningly beautiful old Case.

ED and Doug, Thank you!!! It's role is more of a seasonal EDC as it resides in my Carhartt. See's more use in the Fall/Winter months :)

GEC Eureka today. Yesterday I pulled out my stones and reprofiled the blades by hand. I typically do this with my Edge Pro but I'm getting better on stones since I've been doing all my kitchen knife sharpening on water stones. Took very little time to fix the primary bevel to <40 degrees inclusive. Now it is very easy to touch up on my Sharpmaker.

Got this old 4-Line Camillus Coke Bottle Jack 3-3/4. Has a nice clip blade with a saber grind. It's a nice
old knife to carry and use...imho
