America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.
Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!
Hum…looks like Mr. Case will be joined by Mr. 56 today.

A classy carry sir, I really dig it! I always called that one the Balzac shield
I agree, it’s a great little pattern!I had never seen in reality a #26. I love this pattern, another which in not produced for a looooooonnng time

Yeah, when we lived in the Ozarks, I could always find persimmons when they were in a grove, kind of close to each other.Thanks Jeff
I sort of guessed that was the case, but never looked it up View attachment 2211728 When I bought the place, there was another persimmon in the back yard, but it must have been a male also, because neither one produced fruit. Or maybe it was just sick, because it died within 4 or 5 years. Cottonwoods are the same way. There were two in the front yard and the male didn't produce cotton, but the female would turn the yard white.
I have an EL34 based stereo amp. NOS were mucho dinero. I've had good luck with Russian tubes vs Chinese, but wonder what supply is like given the current state of affairs. Its been a while since I bought a set.
Wow, that’s a winner, Mike. Veryuseful set ifblades.
Hope it turns out ok, Ed!
It is. There’s a farm nearby and he’s got a good acre in knee high garlic. Obviously growing for market, and probably quite valuable acre for acre.Really in need of some cheer today, grabbed a favorite carry pair.
Hopefully it helps.
Amir Fleschwund Glad you're feeling a bit better. Dig that Walden linesman, a step up from the loose bakelite scales on my TL29. Jealous of your garlic especially, we eat tons of organic garlic and it's really expensive here.
Well, what makes it worse is remembering that we’ve already had this discussion.Yes, it’s Paul and … I do have a signature.
But to be fair, my signature says
“they call me Ed G … because I am”
in hopes of tipping people off that Ed G was intended to be the phonetic spelling of “edgy”.
But now they just called me Ed.
… or Frank
Appreciate your compliments, Bart.
I also felt the pull of a cheerful yellow Delrin Stockman, Jer.
Those are beautiful ~ art used to create art.
Yer gonna like it! I love mine, which I bought on the Forum Exchange. It was very tight and gritty when I got it, and oiling didn’t help, so I packed the joint with lapping compound, and worked it several hundred times. After a thourough scrub out, flush, and oiling, it’s silky smooth.Did you get a belt sheath with it?Just got this 125OT in the mail today, it needs a good cleaning at some light taps on the bolster since there is a little side-to-side wiggle, but nothing that can’t be fixed. This is a big one!
I expect we’ll see a bunch of those soon. Glad you like it!Toting this new 72, and couldn't be more pleased with myself for it!
Yeah I got a big brown leather belt sheath in fine condition also. Washed the knife out in mild soap water and dried it off, it was pretty dirty inside. When my daughter sleeps, it’s round two with ballistol, Flitz, fine sandpaper and toothpicks. What better way to spend a Friday evening
