Thank you kindly Bart. Must say, that's one of the nicest modern barlows around.

Those Boker Barlows really turned out nice.

Thanks guys. I’ve been very impressed with it.

Happy plinking, Jack!
Your slingshot reminds of an old memory I have. When I was about twelve years old I'd head up into the woods behind our house. I'd have my Old Timer, Prince Albert in a can stockman (a gift from my dad), some BBs and my slingshot. I'd plink at most anything I saw.
One day I spotted a Chipmunk sitting on a limb maybe 20 feet away. I took my shot, he dropped to the ground, jerked a few times and passed. A head shot. Total dumb luck. I dug a hole and buried him. I felt pretty bad for days. Some things you never forget. That was my first lesson in "don't aim at anything you don't want to kill".
Sixty years later, I still have the stockman but the slingshot is long gone. I put birdseed out for the chipmunks.

It’s funny you bring that up. This past weekend my son and I were in back yard skating. As we were sitting on the deck of the half pipe, a rat kept coming under the fence from the neighbor’s and would just sit there staring at us about six feet away. Any sudden movement and it would run under the fence and come back a minute later. I was sitting there the whole time thinking “I really need a sling shot right now”. I’m pretty sure I would not have felt bad killing that rat. Also pretty sure I would have missed it if I had a slingshot.

Eureka today.

Thought this end view of my usual Case is a good view of Case’s nice work. The end is flush and smooth, no sharp edges, just very clean, well done workmanship. Nice to see America still turn out quality. We’ve got some good left in us yet.

A new arrival( waboom wood)....so into the pocket it goes, after a sharpening. A round of golf and yard work today.

I may have to get into this plinking activity. Plenty of time on my hands and over a million acres of pine barrens.( most of Southern New Jersey is in the national pine reserve).

It's a cheap hobby Bob, and a lot of fun!

Hmmm .............. that might be a good alternative for use on Toolman's hind quarters Mr. Jack.
Looks like your pockets are filled with fine cutlery this day !

The least he deserves! Thank you my friend

I'm still packin' this pair.

Colourful combination Jeff

Thanks, first time I tried this polish its worth a try as they make good products.

Thanks for the tip

That looks like a very nice slingshot, fun too!

Thanks JJ, it was inexpensive

Two stupendous stag covered slicers for your Tuesday, Jack! I can certainly relate to your work on plinking platforms, looks like a very handy addition!

Thanks again my friend

Congrats on the new alluring Albers!

Case Knife of the Week is a red bone half congress with a 1940-1964 CASE XX tang stamp (thanks for the GAW, Bill):


Colonial/Imperial/Schrade of the Week is a Chinese 61OT; I think they call it "Slim Premium Stockman" (not a very creative name, but a lot more informative than many Old Timer model names like Blazer, Wrangler, and Landshark):

Happy to see one made its way to you Mr. Jack !
It's quite a bit scary though.

Slim Premium Stockman" (not a very creative name, but a lot more informative than many Old Timer model names like Blazer, Wrangler, and Landshark):

Landshark always reminds me of the SNL sketch in the aftermath of JAWS. First year, I think.
And by a small leap, social worker Vicki Lawrence hiring Harvey Korman to lash himself to a toilet seat and fight a shark in a tenement's plumbing system.

Back to the farm this morning at last. I'll have my Chinese genuine Japanese hori hori on me, too. (The Japanese original genuine Japanese hori hori I was looking at at the same time had a half tang and a smaller discount, as I recall.)

Oh, and I'll have to show off my new Marttiini lumberjackin' lynx.
Did I tell you guys that my bat exclusion guarantee doesn't guarantee the exclusion of bats? That's where I was at last Wednesday morning.
