Got the porch painted yesterday. Today is a casual day and will spend the day carrying this single blade Case CV Sowbelly with Bunny #525 as backup. Sausage and eggs for breakfast.

Have a great Sunday everyone

Hope you have a great day Jack. WaBoom and the Remington Jack make a good pair. That old man in the Remington pic looks like hes lost in time and space contemplating eternity.

Rain and lolligagging today.
Time to brew some java.View attachment 2316409

Good pair and pic!

Sweet pairing David.

Interesting how some horsewrights, like mine, do not have a stamp imprint.

Thank you Bob. My Cowboy Toothick with Sheep Horn doesnt have a tang stamp either. I have no idea why.

Great-looking pair David, really nice lines on your Horse Wright

Thank you Jack. I'm liking that knife a lot more than I thought I would.

Going with a little but very capable Schrade today

Thanks David....fortunately Dave's style is unique and easy to recognize. So a lack of stamp is not too upsetting.

Been carrying this pair a lot lately and probably will for a while to come. One seems to pick up right where the other leaves off. Last night's chimichanga did wonders for The Rider's burgeoning patina.

Very nice.
Are Schrader Walden and Schrader NY the same?
The shields look the same to me.
Thank you

Yes, same Schrade, but a long complicated history. In the late 1800s, Geo Schrade contracted with Walden Knife Co to make one of his designs. Then, a century+ of mergers, and selling/acquisitions…
I think there were two different eras where they were stamped Schrade Walden, as well as Scrade Cut Co, and just Schrade.

Thanks for the further explain, makes me understand more, you look so professional.
I searched a lot in the internet, though I haven't find any photos of mushroom knife from FP show same issue, but Much appreciate Amir!

I am no professional, but I do look around on the internet.
I did find this interesting info about ‘shroom knives ~ https://foragerchef.com/the-best-mushroom-knives/

I have to chuckle when I read about a knives battening capabilities, I have used this to disconnect a power supply through 10mm sq armoured cable. It wasnt easy and I had to use a 3lb sledge hammer to beat it through,View attachment 2316371 but it did it.

Yeah the Bushcrafter folks do like to whack the spine of their blade when a hatchet would be more…prudent

At least you were working. But next time, try not to whack the handle.
No worries ~ a little duct tape will fix it!

If it leaks, do like that Phil guy on teevee, and cover it with Flex Seal!

I may coat the whole kayak with Flex Seal before going to the lake just to make sure it won't leak.l

Might want to make sure you have some ShamWow on hand as well!

Another foggy start to the day in the City by the Bay! The white house down the street was gutted and remodeled and has been staged and up for sale. Asking price is 1.8 million. If it goes for that it will only increase my property value. 49rs play this morning . Keeping me company today is the Modoc Special and Sundays fancy lamb.

Looking forward to photos of finished kayak

Thank you. I have a small Schrade Walden I picked up a few years back at a flea market in York Pa.

Feeling a little "vintage" this morning, so I brought out the Schrade 175.
If all goes well, I've have another one of these "tuned-up" to match my coral micarta 50T.
Not a die-hard Ford fan, but I can't bring myself to have this particular blade polished.
Turning pruners into swooners... one blade at a time.

It’s a sad day in the McMasters’ household. Shattered in two, just like my hopes and dreams! Have an awesome Sunday, y’all!

I don't know why otherwise intellegent(?) "people" (or "humans"?) "think" putting on a parachute, or attaching a bunch of bungie cords to their ankles, and jumping off the bridge is a "good" idea.

The spot Eval Knieval (dum azz ...) attempted (he failed ) to jump the Snake River canyon in 1974, is seen under the arch.
(yes. the Snake River is currently considerably narrower. About 1/2 as wide, last I saw at this point in the canyon.)

View attachment 2316504

Parachutes and bungee cords seem relatively sane compared to strapping yourself to a homemade rocket and pulling the trigger

IMHO, it would REALLY suck to be taking a shower at a truck stop, have your laundry in the washer while taking the shower ... JUST lathering the shampoo ... to have the fire alarm and lights go off ... Especially during the cold winter months in the mid-west and mountain states when there is white stuff on the ground ... with inches more an hour falling.
I "lucked out". None of the truckstops I was visiting burned down when I was in the shower after parking the truck for no less than 10 hours 5 minutes to reset my daily drive clock. (the minutes over 10 hours was a "safety" measure to make sure I got a full 10 hour reset. 9 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds did NOT "count" as 10 hours, resetting the 24 hour clock. Electronic logs. No way to cheat on the times.

The trucker's version of a baker's dozen. "Trucker's 24"

IIRC Flying J merged/got bought out by Pilot a few years ago.

Thanks Jack. “Souper” well played!

Cool video Mike.

Thanks Todd
Good to see you posting more
