What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

We had an inch or two of snow this morning, which unfortunately will ruin the illusion that these pics of the girls in their Halloween costumes were actually taken today, on Halloween. 😁 Truth is we’ve learned that with school and everything else, if we want decent pics of the kids in their costumes, it’s easier to take them the weekend before Halloween.

Eleanor chose to dress up as Coraline this year. She’s been really into the movie lately (we even got to see a special screening at the theater recently), and she’s been reading the book as well.

Scout’s costume was a bit more… imaginative. I honestly still don’t know how exactly we landed on this as a costume. A while back she asked me, “What kind of penguin is a bat?” and somehow that evolved into her being a penguin-bat for Halloween.

Although it was a bit cold out, we had a nice time trick-or-treating. I had these two with me today, an Albers Lambsfoot in Katalox and a #71 Bull Nose in Muslin Micarta.

Cute kids Barrett, love the Penguin bat costume ! 😁👍
 
Hi Porchsters,

An update, the knife performed flawlessly, as expected. There never was a doubt with that excellent strong spring and tough hard steel. They really are hard use knives. no chips or dings here.
Cut 40ft of tar mineral grit and never a doubt.
I am looking forward to giving at good clean and sharpen, one of knife ownership's great pleasures.

My trick or treat knives...double coffins.View attachment 2375216
Wonderful pair Bob, what you really need is a coffin handle with a skull and crossbones inlaid. :)
Ive been AWOL in the hospital A and E last week and still struggling. 😇

Bought a new car yesterday, yes Guv its a Skoda.

Not sure I checked it over properly as wasnt up to it,but its got manufacturers warranty and the stereos LOUD (very important) 😁

I keep pressing the wrong buttons and things go off or on by mistake, its to technical for me.🤭

I went out to the PO to register it in my name then did a massive food shop,only to find I had left my wallet at home.

They had to put it all back on the shelf,ooops.🤣

Then I remembered I had some change in the car for honesty tables and homeless people so went for a coffee in a garden centre.

I'm no spring chicken but was a youngster compared to all the blue rinse lady's and velcrow shoes old chaps in the cafe...😅

They had the biggest christmas section ive ever seen along with bunnys other pets and garden stuff.

Oh the excitement was to much it could have landed me back in the hospital...🤣🤣🤣

Got mixed up and took 2 SAKS.



































Hope its nothing to serious John, I missed your motorbike pictures.
Those rabbits look good enough to eat, and what better tool to take them to the pot.
Ellis, where is that pocket clip from, what a neat idea.
Not this year. I just kept picking, so there are hardly any left on the vines to dry.
I still have some from last year, anyway.

Have a good day…View attachment 2375557View attachment 2375556

Very sorry to hear about your hospital stay, John. Been recovering at home myself, the last week or so. No pockets on my pajamas, but, this one is sitting on my computer desk to do mail duty.
