Was the blade replacement difficult?Possum says “what bells?”
You need a dog like Manny. The other day, he was frantically rooting around a brush pile in my woods. Little bit later, he’s trotting around with a “dead” possum. He left it laying out in the grass, and then discovered that the “dead” possum had sought refuge under the deck. Well, he rooted him out, and again left him out in the yard. Of course, as soon as he left, that “dead” possum escaped over the back fence. Learned it’s lesson? We’ll see.
A lot to like in this big post, Frederick!
First, I am so glad you like the Camillus TL-29, and have found it useful! I am the same when it comes to tools. I have had too many import hand tools break or bend ~ no more. If I need another tool, I buy second hand Made In USA. (Or England)
Great knives, as usual. I really like that first Jack with the big spear!
And thanks for supporting the practical wonders of Dupont’s Delrin!
Back to the wonderful Schrade 804 Whittler, and my Scrimshaw on which I replaced the blade I broke. The blade is stamped New York Knife Co, and I got it from one of the auction site sellers who has a bunch of parts from the big Schrade End Of Days sell-off.
Back to working on the guitar I’m building for my son, Josh.

There’s no day of the week starting with D, well, there is in Spanish, but that was yesterday. And I can’t wait for Delrin December, so today is gonna be Delrin Monday!
We saw something amazing yesterday. Driving by corn and bean fields, we saw millions of big dragonflies madly swooping and diving. It was like a locust plague, but these were obviously preying on something. I took a video, but can’t figure out how to post it.
Thank you Wayne. Hope all is well.Loving the bolsters on that Shapleigh, understated elegance.
Rosie, and a queen, nice. Royal court.

That will certainly look nice over time with some green hues, etc.Just got the Barlow. Should be fun to watch the copper patina
Nice win! It was a tough Sunday for me as a Titans and Bears fan. 0-1 (x2)
Being both a KC fan and a Lions fan, last Thursday was problematic. I was pulling for KC, because, KC is good. Thursday's play notwithstanding. KC could win another Superbowl. The Lions, OTOH...sigh. The Lions played good, and they appear to have a good team this year, and I always root for them, but being a Lions fan is a lot like this:Thanks! Not sure we’ll have many this year so I’m happy with the “W”. Bummer for the Bears and Titans,good looking dogleg though.
