Old Engineer ~ Yessir, the Japanese beetles are trying to eat my pole beans

Time to spray with a mild soap solution yet ????? Just finished the day by spraying my beetles on Roses and a vine with some .

Rain or shine, it's rhubarb cutting time,
While oh so sublime,
This Muskrat of mine,
Is more then fine...

Smooth Bone Saturday

 

[JJ Cahill]

Many thanks my friend, it's great to see that classic pair of fragrant slicers again

Thank you very kindly, Jack!!! They are certainly easier to locate with the added scent bonus!

Wishing everyone a great weekend

Your styling for Saturday with those two lovely stag slicers; a great weekend kickoff pairing!

 

[JJ Cahill]

Thank you kindly JJ. I agree, lightning is no fun especially around water. Surfing and golfing gives you a chance to find shelter....when racing sailboats, well just don't grab the rigging.
You chose two classic Frenchman today, that reminds me not to neglect mine.

Thank you very much, Bob!!! Yes, uber high voltage and water (especially saline) are a hazardous mix!
Love your Continental flair today, as well!

 

[JJ Cahill]

Similar but different for today.

Those Case 55's are nice!

Thanks David, I agree. So many cool Case patterns that they don’t make anymore.

Nice custom! And gotta comment on the Fender pick. I don’t use picks anymore, but if I did, I’d look for a medium in that color!
A lot of the old Fender colors were Dupont Automotive colors that Ford and Gm were using in the ‘50s. When I put together a Strat from parts, used a torch and scraper to get the poly off, and mixed up my best imitation of Seafoam Green in nitrecellulose lacquer. And my next scratch built Tele will be Seafoam Green, too..Love that color on guitars, old Ford pickups, and Chevy Bel Airs.

I agree with your seafoam green thoughts, Jeff. I don’t have a seafoam guitar but I do have a seafoam green ‘61 Bel Air.

I don’t have a decent picture handy but you get the idea.

Boring hotel picture of my SAK today.

Similar but different for today.

Thank you much. There is so much flair and style in your horned lamb today JJ. Having the unique bolsters, makes your trapper a beauty in my eyes.

 

[mitch13]

Out & about shopping, so just the recruit for most of the day & DB when I got home.

Simplicity and function.

 

[RLB0414]

I appreciate that, my friend!

The amp could, but it will not.
I’m the new guy, who doesn’t want to freak anyone out. NEVER play over or louder than the vocals!
But there are interludes and fills where I can dig in a bit

Thank you!
That’s dill weed.

Thank you

I had hoped to post my final pair of knives from last week on palindromic page 13031, but I missed it!
Then I got busy with something else and forgot to post them at all. This morning, before I switched to my new set of knives for the week, I thought I should give this pair their "turn in the spotlight."
Miscellaneous knife for last week is a Rough Rider ram's horn bone cotton sampler:


Lambsfoot of the Week is Lam Jack, my 2017 horn Guardians lambsfoot (thanks, mrknife ):

Maybe just this Bruckmann for church.

 

[joeradza]

In an ode to the “who still carries a Case” thread. I will.

 

[Jack Black]

Thank you JJ, your Straight-edge Saturday pair look great together

Terrific twosome Gary

Think this Albers Lamb will be enough for me today Have a great Sunday everyone

 

[5K Qs]

Here's some quotes left over from the middle of last week, I think.

Really enjoying the photos lately, mother nature and knives, nothing wrong with that.
A bit of a heatwave here, so outside early in the garden and mowing some lawn.
Harry, my roses have been cursed with beetles too.
Good health to everyone.View attachment 2248267

Couple of stunners, Bob; really like the shield and blade shape on that Jennings!

Stag stockman day..

Stellar stag pair! My favorite is the round-bolstered one!

Well done Gary. Poet emeritus of the forum
Nice canoes too.

Canoes I could paddle!

Thanks, Bob & Jeff.

These 2 champions today. Both USA made, just a little over 100 years apart.
View attachment 2248374

Champs, indeed! I'll vote for the 2-blade jack!

I must find the slimline thread.
View attachment 2248378
I thought public pools were a thing of the distant past. Glad to see some are still open.

I'm really not a full-sized trapper fan, and I tend to prefer knives with more than one blade, and clip blades are not even close to my favorite blade shape. Despite all of that, I LOVE the Case slimline trapper!

Ok, those both deserve a rimshot

Buck 303, jigged water buffalo.

Thanks for your musical support, Mike!
I like the horn on your Buck! I have a RR pen knife with finger grooves like that in buffalo horn.

Thanks Gary....funny, I went from teaching to an iron worker at my friend's business for 3 years. I'm not a person that finds an idle life enjoyable.

That's quite a career change, Bob!

Hopefully, he's just busy fishing The last time Mr P went fishing, he was gone for 5 years!
....
Two princely Canoes Gary
...

That's my recollection, too, Jack. Primble took some time off to catch some fish, and instead, the fish apparently caught him!
Thanks for the monarchical compliment for my canoes.

Amoebas.
No, cat tracks!
No, cat eyes!
Wait...turtles, yeah turtles
Its harder than it looks

Mr.P is a trained professional, do not try this at home!

Mike & Bob, you guys are more entertaining than the television!

Yes, it is an automatic. She knew I’d want it when she saw the candy stripe celluloid handle wrapping, and she knows I have a soft spot for Imperial/Hammer Brand anyway.

Thanks for the confirmation; really cool finds she brought back for you!

I am flying to Bradford, PA tomorrow and will have a chance to tour the Case factory. I am going to tote one of these, probably the Texas Jack.

Hope you had a safe and enjoyable trip, LT; that's a quality quartet of Cases you posted!

Shew. Done for the day. Wednesday’s knife companions were…

View attachment 2249837

Those Case sawcut Barlows from a few years ago are splendid knives!
I bought one at a hardware store that was also a Case Master Dealer in Mackinaw City MI; I think it's the only Case I've purchased in a brick-and-mortar store.

...
Got this Klaas 4" closed stag whittler out for this evening and to carry tomorrow. Hummingbirds have been visiting the wife flowers this past week but I've been unable to capture a pic with my cellphone camera. Tiny little buggers and hard to approach.
View attachment 2249147View attachment 2249148

Always a treat to see that stag whittler, Greg!

Thanks a lot, Gary!!! Not much, though I believe he goes by Jean Pierre Le Chapeau (or Chappy.)

Thanks for the info, JJ!

A couple of shadows today.

Bone bonanza on your pair of shadow patterns!

In my dafter moments, I think about running with the bulls in Pamplona.

View attachment 2249246

Running with the bulls in Pamplona seems ill-advised, Vince, but running with the bull on the blade of your Laguiole seems illustrious!

...

Well that doesn’t sound very enjoyable. I think all the “new” stadiums are designed to make the fan experience better.

Thanks Gary. How will I know if it needs more paint if I don’t try it out?

Exactly!

I see you posting pics of the Beer Scout occasionally, and I had to get mine out. I've carried a pocket knife since I was a little kid, (60-some years), but the Beer Scout was my first GEC.
