My one and only Lloyd for New Year’s Eve, with yet another of my hobbies, for awhile I was thinking of being a watchmaker and modded this Seiko with a MKII dial and hands Sinn style.
I built a handful of watches from parts but bending over was just a little too tough on the neck! I’ll stick with electronics for fun.

It has often been stated how unwise it is to partially open multiple blades on the same spring. The risk is said to be a broken spring
Yet, that is precisely how I received this knife and likely it had been stored in this manner for decades
Perhaps a testament to the steel, either composition, heat treat, dimensions, or combination thereof used in the spring and pattern construction
Unlike perhaps that found in some Camillus and Queen knives for example that have been known to experience broken springs
However, a feature of the presentation packaging provides for storage with the blades in a closed position. So there is that.

Hail, Porch dwellers … I’ve been under the weather (waaay under) for the past week, but here’s today’s carry (recycled pic).
Still not feeling up to much, but here’s wishing all a happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year!

Glad you’ve partially resurfaced.
Maybe something shared by family at Christmas?
I’ve just gotten over the galloping crud, with help from antibiotics, that I always seem to catch from my Colorado grandkids.
