Does your wife know about this honeymoon?
yes ma’am!I’m definitely starting to bond!!!Two great choices!
Really lovin’ the 33 … hard to kick out of your pocket, isn’t it?
Sweet collection and always love your photos. Growing up less than an hour from Bradford, I’m very fond of Case knives and I’m sure they will make it right. As a ceramic engineer/materials scientist, I keep looking at your fractured Stockman. A break that clean and severe points to a heat treating issue combined with a microstructural flaw that created a stress riser. The fracture looks like the brittle failure of a ceramic!! Enough nerd talk …I'm not overly worried about it, I expect Case to turn that around quickly, until then, these seem to be doing just fine

I always save those annoying dessicant canisters that come in vitamin and rx bottles, and put them in my knife cigar boxes. I don’t really know if they actually help…For the first time in weeks I don't have a knife in my pocket
But it's Sunday and I am merely wearing sleep pants anyways
But I am oiling and cleaning knives while watching YouTube videos about the Prussian/Austrian war because I am a weird history nerd.
It's amazing how rusty my carbon steel knives get just sitting in the house. I can only assume it's because my sweat is so caustic it starts rusting when I touch my knives
And just Mississippi humidity in general

If I’m not mistaken, is that a pic of Malcolm Reynolds from the TV/Movie series Firefly?I'm not overly worried about it, I expect Case to turn that around quickly, until then, these seem to be doing just fine

Looks like the satin finished bolsters and wood have become polished with use.
Have you tried vacationing in soothing, relaxing Miranda yet?Indeed it is, one of my favorite shows, a shame that it ended way too soon. The wood is actually a couple of pieces of pine I glued together, routed two grooves on the underside which then allows it to rest across my desk drawer when opened, giving me another area to work on, very handy. The way I put the image on there was to print the image in reverse on some wax paper and then carefully layed it down and pressed it evenly so the ink transfered into the wood and then coated the wood with a clear finish.

I love your jigged bone 85. Who did the work on this one? I tried to have one recovered with jigged bone, but the slabs of jigged bone we ordered from Culpeper’s had cracks in them. We went with Black Ash burl. This one was done by David Valdivieso.
The Brazilian Cherry takes on a fine luster doesn't it.
Great way to spend an afternoonEnglish Jack. After church today, Mrs. Crappie and I went up on the mountain and caught these rainbow trout.
I thought so. One of my favorites as well. Another was “Defiance”.
