Very nice JJ. Looking forward to seeing that copper aging with a nice patina.

Thanks a lot, Bob!!!

Finally, a day without humidity!
I hope all have a good day. Etching delete on wabbit.

Great pair of 1095 sweet slicers for a nice dry Thursday!

I wish I’d bought the Wards Cattle I followed on the ‘bay a few years ago, the bone was gorgeous. Probably why the bidding went crazy.
Always like seeing yours…same for that Ulster Jack, and your sweet Camillus Trapper Jack!

Thanks Jeff, the Wards is one of my favorites

 

[JJ Cahill]

You have great taste my friend, those two are terrific

Thanks for your kind words, Jack!!!

Hope everyone is having a good day

Looks like you picked up some sweets at the market and put those two American Beauties to work on a tasty project, Jack!

Thank you JJ, that steel does take on a nice edge.

I needed to attack some cardboard today.

Your L.T. Wright looks more than capable JJ. A very useful combo.

Great pics Bart

Good look Soda Scout Bart. Your pictures are fantastic!

Great photos and good looking herd of cattle

Thanks for showing us some of the work of real life cattle ranching! Fine looking animals.

Thanks guys. Part of our cattle go up to southern Oregon for the summer. There’s someone up there that takes care of them but I go up to help with the gathering, processing, shipping, etc. Thought I would give you a glimpse of the less-urban side of our cattle operation.

Thanks Bart, but it's the way it is - my job is seasonal so I gotta make hay now, don't want to go all winter hungry. Speaking of, your cows are looking mighty fine, I'd love to have one in my freezer. You trade for fixed blades?

Thanks FC. I think shipping costs would kill our trade transaction There’s a custom knife maker in Sacramento and I’ve actually thought about offering to trade him beef for a knife but haven’t done it yet.

Glad to hear your boy's wrist ought to heal up. It would be cooler if he'd done it skating though.

Thanks. It’s a relief he won’t need surgery. The first thing everyone that knows us asks is “skating?”

Have a nice day

I love seeing that one. Such smooth lines

Finally, a day without humidity!

Hope the move of your herd went off without any trouble Bart.Always a great background to show off your trapper.

[Jack Black]

They finally named a knife after us Jack!!

LOL!

Oooh! The smallest Schrade Serpentine Jack! Capable little knife, JB!

Thanks buddy, it was a kind gift from r8shell a few years back

Sometimes you have to go big to get the job done, but in the case of a pocket knife it is not so.

Striking pair Paul

Haven't posted my carry for a bit due to being away but here's what's in my pockets now that I am back.

Those two go well together Jeremy

Thanks for your kind words, Jack!!!

Thanks JJ, that's Tool Man's favourite cake - probably because it is so big!

I needed to attack some cardboard today.

You picked the perfect tools for it my friend! Two great-looking knives too

Back in California today and carrying my wharncliffe trapper.

Stunning photo Bart

Just turned the page on my Northern California calendar. Starting September with my Hartshead Barlow, and an Old Friend (S & M Heritage Jack)

A rare bird I never thought I would add to my collection. Big shout out to everyone who has helped me to find these BF knives , it’s been a long and sometimes frustrating journey
Now I need to find a 2010 moose to complete the set
Hopefully I will score one from this year to keep the set complete

Same Eagle Jack, and Camillus 68 ~ hard to put these two away.

Okay,apologies in advance. Not trying to divert from the Totin theme, but i have some photos of the garden…
At least you know my knives are not safe queens.
First thing this morning, I took out the big jack, and chopped down the basil which was thriving in the sandy gravel by the front walk. Vik the Designer complained that talk stuff should be in back. It was time anyway, they would have begun to bolt soon. Hung up to dry…

So despite us eating tomatoes every day, they are now ripening en masse, and I cannot keep up. Some, like bushels full of cherry maters are getting shared.View attachment 2305714
It’s time to cook up and can a big batch of salsa.

Not pictured ~ the peaches and mangoes I bought. We like peach and mango salsas.

I’ll end up wth four different recipes down in the pantry.
Have a fine day!

Your garden must be a 9-5 job Jeff. Seems I always have a salad after your posts. Beautiful, and always tended with some great old knives.

Good morning all. Hope you had a great week.
