That looks like a good start, Todd.
Forget what you carried....
Mr.P I'm glad you made it through unscathed. I hope those affected will recover quickly.
Holy smokes, Rob -- that's a pretty intense set of weather comin' through! Glad to hear you and your family are OK.
Safe to say the rest of your day has been pleasantly boring?
Glad yer ok, Rob.
Glad there were no injuries, and you all came through OK.
I hate tornados. Especially at night.
I'm so glad I don't have to worry about them where I am these days.
Glad everyone is okay![]()
Since they're not allowed on our knives I put it on the sheath. Thank you sir!!
I'm glad to hear you, your family, and property are safe. Tornadoes are seriously scary and that photo you captured is absolutely unreal!!! Thank you for sharing and stay safe Mr. P!!

You had quite a day Mr P!!Yesterday morning, around 3:00 a.m., there was a minor earthquake, which originated about five miles from where I live. Six hours later and about my usual time to post my daily tote(s), I had just finished dressing and was in the process of making the very important decision of what knives to tote, which was interrupted by the loud weather sirens down the street. I looked on the NWS weather page and noticed that we were under a tornado warning, seeing the visible proof of a very scary looking blob of red, in the shape of a backward C, bearing down on my little town. Having my talent or affliction for recognizing shapes (depending on how you look at it), I deduced that shape to indeed be a tornado.
The sirens repeated and lasted a longer time the second warning. I took it more serious and hollered for Elijah J., grabbed my Primble Barlow and phone off the sideboard, and proceeded to the basement. I settled on an old bench, where I could see out the basement door. Kitty boy sat out the storm with me on the bench and while the wind got high (looked to be gusting to maybe 50 mph) it didn't last very long. Right after that, I could hear sirens from emergency vehicles. My daughter-in-law texted me around that time and said that a tornado hit downtown and did damage to buildings.
I wonder how many places are lucky enough to experience an earthquake and a tornado in a six hour span ?
To make an already long story a bit shorter, I will just say that there were no injuries reported and my family's property was spared this time. Some barns and roofs damaged, as well as a few homes that got quite a bit more hard hit. The weather service survey said it was a 2.9 magnitude earthquake and an EF-1 tornado, pushing 110 mph winds, on the ground for 2.25 miles.
Back to knives, since I grabbed my Primble Barlow to save yesterday, I will make it up to one of my favorite Catt's to tote, by toting it today. It was left behind on the sideboard yesterday morning and being a Catt, might have got its feelings hurt.

Many thanks JJ, that pair of aces pair beautifully
Ugly is in the eye of the beholder.I carrying my case yeller mini trapper
Again
This little guy is growing on me
He rides very well in the pocket, but the handle shape is very good for only a 3 1/2"
The blades are thin and have some flex without being flimsy and it's one of the knives that I don't really care if I break it or lose it
So I feel free to actually use it
Edit**
But lawd I think she's an ugly knife
