Love the walking stick Harry, kudos on a job well done!

I know it's WW but I missed my Eureka Jack

Like those 2 knives a lot .
Thanks for the very kind words my friend , but it was not Done yet in that photo . It is now done and I took a photo of it with almost all of the others that I have made .

Had a Grandson do some lettering on this ( my first one made in 2017 )

I also made another one just like the 2nd from the left and gave it to a very good friend
Wood material for each one going left to right is :
A special 2.25 x 4 Oak / Broken Shovel handle / Limb from a downed Oak tree / A Mulberry stick that was found in a house that we bought in 1973
The brass hames or knobs left to right : Unused / Used / Used / New and Unused .
Lengths of the Sticks are all determined by what the stick gives and how and where the ends will fit .
What I have in my pockets today .

Jim, that’s why my phone is always on silent. Of course I’m retired so I don’t have to worry about it . I hope you got home soon there after .

Took a stroll along a wooded river bluff today with this small fixed blade knife, 6" OAL. It rides in a rawhide sheath with a deer skin leather neck strap.

Recognize this? I will not be taking it out in the snow! I will carry it and continue to work on it throughout the day. dont where it will end up to be honest.

Google translate isn't much help: 'Ihsan Rinay bor' is Bengali for 'Ihsan is older than Rina'.
I'm guessing it's a coincidence.

Bor is a town on the Anatolian plateau, Kind of like putting "Sheffield" on the blade, the first two words i did suspect were the maker name.

Since "Bor" is located in the birthplace of civilization "older than" could have some significance.

its situated quite close to the 4500 yr old Mound of Destival, and of course we all know the "relatively" recent discovery of Gobekli Tepi at 11 000 years old, judging by the intricacies of the stonework i find difficult to argue that iron tools where not present during its construction.

Bor is located in a part of the world where possibly the first knives ever created by human hands were made. Hence the simple design, possibly thousands of years old.

I might take it round the Kebab shop after to see what my Turkish friends make of it.
