Howdy, Porcheteers! Did I miss anything?

I went up to NYC at the beginning of December for Mom's 90 birthday. Had a great time. Picked up my first case of Covid for a souvenir. 🤒🤬 Feeling better now.

I'm carrying a set of piano key covers today:

Oh, man, gotta get on that. Lambsfoots (lambsfeet?) really are a great pattern.

Yep. My KOTY - as I said in that thread, I acquired some other great knives this year (including the pictured mini copperlock), but the HHB was easily the KOTY for me this year.

Great job on that rehandle. I made some guitar pics out of Buffalo horn years back.




Great pics of your '19 Gary !

When I realized you has been AWOL, I just figured you were visiting Mom for Hanukkah. Hope it was a blessed holiday for you and Mom! My own Dad just hit 90 late last month ~ let’s hope their longevity can be inherited.

Some Budding/Grafting knives were made of Elephant tooth, or Walrus tusk. Does yours have a file-worked spring?

Synthetics were also used as on table-knives.

Morning Will.
No filework on the spring, what is interesting is that the liner appears to be a "pocket" of brass one piece. The handle is also one piece, it is not two separate scales. It looks like they have made a slot in the handle material and then put in a drawn or folded piece of brass. pins look like silver.

Hi Oldy,

I use a machine auction near where I live. I have found out that one of the old farmers was a knife collector. he sometimes puts for sale individual knives but the reserves are high so I don't bid, this was in a box of "junk knives" that I bought for $50. He seems to have a lot of pruners. The antler handled ones go for 6-700 dollars. I will be going again next week, I just got a nice old Diana Mod 24, and I will have a fondle of a few while I am there.

Resin handle PALLARES with "leaf" blade. No "INOX" stamp anywhere.
I'm not sure if that means carbono or not.
