Yeah she will be ok, has to wear a splint bit of physio, mri & see how it is in a month.
Probably should have been seen to sooner but as Lorna has autism & is 19 takes a bit od negotiating to get things done that aren't routine

Miscellaneous Knife of the Week is a Japanese Sabre Daddy Barlow that a former work colleague gave me after finding it while cleaning out his late father-in-law's garage. I've cleaned it up some, but it still could use more TLC.

Make it a good day, eh?
Yes, they came out of the Richards of Sheffield factory, Richards having previous acquired Rodgers-Wostenholm, and then being sold to Imperial. They were very much a secret project in Sheffield, but I knew some of the Rodgers cutlers who worked there then. Some of the parts were actually made by Camillus, as you can see by comparing the lock-backs. A couple of years before he died, Stan Shaw, who worked for Wostenholm at one time, made me a knife, from old parts, supplied by Mrs Slater of Slater Brothers/H.M. Slater. I'm not sure how Mrs Slater got hold of the parts, but things move around in SheffieldAgreed, Jack, they were in the 1980 Schrade catalogs.
