Absolutely! The WB&P had a slight blade wobble, so I clamped and peened the pivot pin. I'm insufferably pleased with myself that it worked.I agree, and it’s very satisfying when you put a little work into them, really makes them your own.![]()
Thanks, Jack!Look good though Rachel![]()

I like the Staglon on that Uncle Henry version of the 5OT!
Our peonies aren't in full bloom yet, but they're swelled up and ready to go any day; as with many of our perennials, they seem early this year. Is that true for you, or are most of your plants pretty much on the normal schedule?Two for fun, View attachment 2204321View attachment 2204322 Siberian Irises are blooming
One for workView attachment 2204323 Maybe I should get my initials engraved on this thing. There’s a jeweler who did a nice job engraving our son’s name on a locket I gave my wife. In case one ‘o youse guys tries ta swipe it.View attachment 2204324

That old sawcut Case Barlow is a treasure, Todd!This one’s been a constant companion since I got it. Have a great day everyone.View attachment 2204396
Thanks for the confirmation, Bob.Quite correct on the #38 GT.
Thanks for the info on SF trash bins.Ours are for for compostables green, recycling blue and landfill brown.
Man, a bone lump sounds less than ideal!Thanks. Gravel rash and general pain healing, the lump on the bone doesn't seem to be getting smaller. Doc wrote an XRay order and told me to get one if it didn't show signs of improvement by the end of the week, so I'll likely be going to get an XRay Friday.
Glad you could use Big Rose to cut down thistles, Jack!...
Me too GaryThanks, I used her to hack down some hefty thistles the other day!

You've stumped me, Mike!
Appealing pair of knives, Steve, especially that stag lambsfoot!
Cool trio of knives, David.
Combined blade length is pretty impressive for that pair of knives, Paul!
That's a really desirable old Imperial pattern!
Pristine pair of vintage Hammer Brand patterns, JJ!
So there aren't many demolition derby type situations at the skate park?...
Good point, Gary. Athough when I’m skating, it’s generally up to me if I fall and get hurt, not someone else slamming into me…generally.
Thanks, Gary.
Couple of "instant classic" Barlows, Jack!I haven't carried a TC Barlow in a while, so today, I'm carrying one Duncan @Campbellclanman very kindly gifted me in Sheffield, some years back, along with my regular Hartshead BarlowHave a good Friday everyone

Well done with that combo Paul.nice cool morning … trying to play catch-up on the forums, which we all know is a futile effort … work has been keeping me away during the week due to some shifts in the organization, and I suspect that may not change any time soon … just know I’m on the Porch in spirit, and posting when I can … !

Oooof you’re tugging at my advertising knife heartstrings! So cool
Here's my CS Pinch for today. Found out all the CS Pinch knives were made by Eric Albers, which means they are special to me. He told me it was quite a discussion to get Wally to agree on these scales, but AGE jumped on them right off the bat.Its a Canal Street Pinch lockback, Gary. IIRC the handles are called "Ribbon Candy Mica Pearl" It was an SFO for A.G. Russell.
