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. :thumbsup: 🤠

Good pair and pic! 😎

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

Thank you Jack. I'm liking that knife a lot more than I thought I would. 😁
Thank you my friend, kind of hot here for Yorkshire, but I'm coping ;) :D :thumbsup:
 
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. 😄
As a current F150 guy and a former Mustang guy, please don’t desecrate the oval 😂😂😂. Definitely a cool knife.
 
For the second week in a row, my rotation schedule has given me the usual 2 canoes PLUS a bonus canoe in the Stag/Horn category!! :thumbsup:🤓:thumbsup::cool:
Canoes of the Week are two Rough Riders, one a synthetic yellow carbon steel canoe and the other a completely mistimed over-sized Christmas canoe:

Three beautiful examples of Ford "getting it right". 👍🏻 What year is the eldest?

I was actually a technician at the local Ford store when that last Lightning came out.

"Grandpa Bill" opened a body shop in 1954, so you can imagine I've seen almost one of everything at some point. We worked on and/or painted everything from muscle cars to dump trucks. The last car we painted before he retired was an antique Bentley that left for the Barrett-Jackson auction.

Oh, boy! These pictures have caused a flood of memories. The walls in the waiting area at his shop were absolutely covered with pictures just like this. I couldn't stand spending my summers at the shop back then. Looking back, I wouldn't trade all those Bondo-buggers for nothin'. 🥹

Thanks for sharing these! I mean that. 👍🏻

Thanks, I know the feeling.
The oldest is a '56 with a 460 Cid.
The Bentley must have been a labor of love...lots of detail.
 
Rain and lolligagging today.
Time to brew some java.View attachment 2316409
Fine pairing but even nicer to see coffee beans. :cool: Just don't understand WHY more people don't grind their own? The freshness & flavour without parallel. I hope you're using 'Traditional ' methods to grind them ? None of that electricity witchcraft:eek::D

Beautiful mill Will. You are correct, one cannot beat the freshness and flavor.
I hate to disappoint but I use an electric burr mill.
I might have to search for a manual mill.
