Bonus weekend shots of grubby/nasty job. The TL-29 was my most faithful companion, along with the mosquitoes who were way less helpful. Thanks again Jeff, she's been pressed into indentured servitude and no time for a make-over currently. I really wanted that radiator core support, they are the first things to rust and it totals these vans which I am obsessed with. Wife has never been to Camdenton Missouri where I grew up, so I told her I was gonna bring it to her 🤣

You are experiencing the wisdom of putting the black synthetic scales on a hard working knive. And you’re most welcome my friend!
You can take the boy out of Camdenton, but you can’t take the Camdento out of the boy.
Started building a cedar strip kayak. With a Buck 389 and a few other tools.

Quite an undertaking. Please let us see how it turns out.
I've been carrying my dad's knife. He's been on my mind recently. As a kid, I saw him either using this or a pair of Vise Grip pliers for just about everything on the farm. Twine also. He used lots of twine.

I’m glad you have his knife and your memories, Franklin.
Nice jackknife, Will.

This large (over 4") congress is basically a folding machete but it disappears in the pocket! Its smooth, snappy, zero gaps, flush... It's perfect. Boker also does jigged Delrin better than any other knife I've had.

One spring, two blades... Nice and thin... Excellent. I just can't seem to find one in a medium size. 3 or 3.125" and 4.125" but nothing in the middle. The search continues.

If anyone has any old Boker catalogs with various half congress knives... Please give a shout if you don't mind sharing some photos.

The Sabre is just along for one day for nostalgic reasons.
