Your critter Lamb looks really nice all lit up Mr. R.:thumbsup:😍

Back when I was a young golfer, occasionally a Circuit Judge would join our foursome. He never scored worse than a bogey. Not much anybody would object ...... everyone knew he was a poor golfer and had considerable influence ................ or worse ..... could jail them.

When he got to bogey ..... he picked his ball up and put it in his pocket. One day ...... when I feeling a bit courageous, I mentioned to him that he hadn't even made the green before he picked his ball up. He replied "That's my handicap ..... shut up !" 🤬😖 He usually finished 18 holes about 17 over par ....... according to his score card.🤣

Great photo of a fantastic knife, Mike! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:
Electrician is probably my favorite Alox model - I think of it as a SAK "cattle knife" pattern. ;)

Thanks Gary :) I hadn't thought of it, but yeah, a cattle knife with a screwdriver/bottle opener and a wire stripper. A Cattleman's De-Lux :D:thumbsup::thumbsup:

I gave up golfing quite a few years ago, but when I used to play regularly and would occasionally have a horrible hole, I'd often say, "Put me down for a 9; you can't fit double digits in that little space on the scorecard."

That sounds scary! :eek: I'm glad I've never lived anywhere that wild boars were a possibility.

We have feral hogs here in Missouri. The Department of Conservation (DOC) considers them a pest and invasive so they want them gone. At one point it was open season -shoot them if you see them. DOC now doesn't want anybody hunting them, apparently because the hogs get so smart nobody (i.e. DOC) can find them to eradicate them. Every other species gets hunted to the brink of extinction without controlled hunting seasons, but apparently the hogs thrive o_O
Pretty wily hogs 🐷

I personally don't know anybody that's ever seen one, although the damage done by them has been documented.

I'm glad to have an iconic old Buck 110 from the 1960s, but I almost never carry it, in part because I think the original clip blade is one of the ugliest traditional blades I've ever seen, and I'm not very fond of the brass bolsters, either. But your drop point version with the nickel silver (?) bolsters looks fantastic! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:

Thanks GT, I feel the same way. I love my classic 110 but I’m really enjoying the fresh releases Buck has been doing on all of their classic knives. This one with nickel silver bolsters and S30V steel is no exception!

We came home about 1:30 this afternoon to find Coco at the bottom of the back porch steps laying on the sidewalk. Her haunches being what they are, she could barely get up and couldn't stand for more than a few seconds. I told Cindy; "that's it, I'm calling the vet. The vet took us in right away and we had her put Coco down. No more pain or suffering. She was looking Cindy and I in our eyes as she passed over the Rainbow Bridge. I'm sure you guys/gals/youngsters won't mind if I don't include a picture of a knife in this post.

A splendid pair you have there Jon.

Cool setup Jeremy! How do you end up carrying that? Front pocket/back pocket, backpack?

All of the above 😆! Back pocket for the most part but I plopped it in the console when driving or the front if I really needed to for sitting elsewhere. It was in the diaper bag/backback pack today when we went out for my eldests’ birthday bowling party as well.

Coco is in Doggie Heaven. I know she got the best care possible. I still miss our last doggies. Sometimes ending pain and suffering is best. (Wish we could to it for two legged critters)
