John Primble India Steel Works Pillbuster (c.1890-1940) for Monday. Measures 3 & 7/8ths" closed. I took this out of the Primble Display Case last week for a while, just to give it some love. It is normally the center piece of that collection. It is a stout knife, but, won't get any hard use today.

That Chief whittle just makes me smile as I look out the window on a horrible,non stop rainy, grey day.
That's a nice idea Jeff, I have a couple of haggis in the freezer!When the kids lived over there, they used to do a “Friendsgiving”, where they’d invite a bunch of friends and co-workers over, both Scots and Americans, for a big Thanksgiving style meal.
How about a turkey with haggis on the side?
I might say the pile side stag on your HHB is best, but since it’s impossible to see both at the same time, I can’t be sure.![]()
Cool composition Jon
Yes, the drive-belts were everywhere! Cutlery hulls were dangerous placesVery interesting that those cutlers would make safety modifications to their work clothes; makes sense with all the belts and wheels I've seen in photos.![]()
