This well used stockman that belonged to my late grandfather has been finding itself in my pocket here recently as I've been packing around his namesake who is nearly two weeks old now.

When you ask for something accessible, if you don't get it, you're sad, if you get it, you are momentarily satisfied.
When you ask something unrealistic, if you don't get it , you're not sad, only player can win. But it you get it the joy is incredible.

The moral of the story : NEVER BE REALIST ! 🤣
Thanks so much Charlie @waynorth and @Rhidian

You hit the nail on the head. Thinking about that “momentarily satisfied” part, so true regarding acquiring and possessing “things”.

I am realistically certain that this new possession will provide a more lasting satisfaction for you. 🤙

The most excellent Boker is in the front pocket for all normal daily chores.

Work knife of the week in the side pocket is this English made Klein. Ibberson I assume. Very well made work knife for what it is. Smooth, centered, no blade play, well done! Glad to see Klein had sourced products from somewhere other than the far east.

The Made In England Klein is a new revelation to me, too. That is a solid work knife. 🤙
Interesting company that has found a lasting niche serving tradesmen, mainly electricians.

Thank you, Gary. It was a enjoyable trip spending time with family as well as finding a knife store to browse while there. :)
Your RR smooth tobacco bone knives are very nice, Rough Rider does smooth bone as well as any IMO.:thumbsup:

Today I'm pocketing another new one that I picked up on my travels, a case mini trapper in jigged brown bone. I'm not a big fan of this pattern but it could grow on me.
I really liked the bone on this one and that's what sold me the most. Also packing my GEC 56 dogleg today, one that has seen many days of solid use.
Gonna clean my shop today and maybe work on some hobby projects. Hope all you porchsters have a sunny Tuesday, even if it's bitter cold where you are like it is here. :)

Now I see why you left on your Thanksgiving trip with so few pocket knives. You had a little of what I call
“ Walkin’ Around Money”!

It is indeed a sunny Tuesday. But I’m hoping we get a thaw out tomorrow, so it melts off this white crap. I need to put some stuff away before winter really sets in!

Feeling cleansed and refreshed from your sabbatical? I tried that a few times. Made it a couple of hours!😎

Well, congratulations, Daddy!
 
Cindy is sleeping in this morning after her and her sister-in-law's exhausting trip to Klamath Falls, Oregon yesterday. Don't laugh. It took a lot of effort to tap and swipe credit cards while she was shopping. Thought I'd give this short bolster Barlow by A.Wright a go today. Very nice fit and finish and very nice Ebony. Cinnamon toast and coffee for breakfast.

Thanks Steve :) :thumbsup:

LOL! :D Yeah, me neither buddy :) I remember during one of our Covid lockdowns here, when you couldn't have folks in your house (unless you were running the country), me and my mate sat round the fire-pit in my back-garden, drinking beer all afternoon, with warm coats on, and umbrellas in our hands, as it was pouring with rain! :D We had a memorable time :D :thumbsup:

It is Tyson, it still needs a good edge putting on it :thumbsup:

🤣:thumbsup:

Great pics Jeff :) :thumbsup:

I've been wondering were you were John, was going to put a shout out this morning. Hope you're doing OK :thumbsup:

Nice set-up :cool: :thumbsup:

Have a good week everyone :thumbsup:

That’s an awesome Covid story!!!!
 
Another beautiful day here in the City by the Bay! Taking it easy today and still recovering from visit to the oral surgeon $$$. Take care of your teeth or it will cost you when you get into your golden years! Keeping me company today is the usual lamb and Mini Russell. I’m very pleased with the Russell the fit and finish is excellent, locks up tight and the only thing it needed was a little bit of time on the Sharpmaker. Have a great day folks! 😀

Well, did your better half bring you the Ronald McDonald stuff?

I figured you might have chosen oatmeal for the fiber this morning! 😁

Hope you and your family had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Brass all day! We did have a great Thanksgiving break. It was great to have some good family time. Hope you had a great one as well.

Yessir. It was fun to force my brain and other spaces for a little bit, but there’s nothing like the porch!
