LOL :D
Your comments brought memories of tiny parrotlet I got as a baby in 2002 and lived with us for 18 years.
I trained Kokito to do several tricks. He learned to fetch, "guess" under which cup the bean was located, put rings in pegs, play dead, ride a scooter.
I had plenty of time before our daughters were born LOL

This video was taken many years later in 2012 I believe and he still remembered most of his tricks.

Tiki, on the other hand wants nothing to do with tricks however she likes a fine knife with some silver and gold

:cool: Way cool, dude!! I'm 98% certain you're related to Harry Potter. 🧙‍♂️ Think you could teach me how to put both socks in the hamper?? 😃

Woke up at 4:30, tossed and Turned for a couple of hours and decides to take a walk this morning accompanied by this good friend.

This knife has rarely had a day outside my pocket since it landed. I've not posted it yet as I was waiting for the perfect photo, alas I haven't had time for rabbit hunting since I've had it.

It may just be my favourite of all pocket knives.
Thanks Bob for the chance at this beauty.

Yessir, the Bunny is a fine knife.
When I first got it, I thought it was too small. I’ve come to feel that the TL-29 Electrican/Linesman Jack was the perfect size for me. But then, I realized that Mr.Bunny is the exact same size as some of the other Jacks I favor~

Voos
USN Utility Jack
Camillus Easy Open Jack (my Grandfather’s good knife)
And a TL-29.
Like the other GECs I’ve handled, the Bunny is superbly made, and has a sweet ring to the snap.

Just finished this Puzzle at 1:30 A.M. and I had to figure out what to do until the big game .

Decided to do some more removal of bark on the next walking stick and used the Puukko and 2019 BF knives with the Puukko doing most of the work .

It was a little tedious to get all of the bark off and not destroy the Worm or Bug trails .

Tedious, but well worth preserving, Harry! That is going to make a gorgeous stick.
Do you have a bit of scrap left laying around to test different finishes? I’m thinking a stain put on then wiped off might highlight the bug trails…

Spent my weekend up to this point in my shop tillering out a osage Cayuga replica bow that I've been making. Got it done and shooting. Showered up and heading to the other end of the block to my brother and sister in laws to watch the game. Carried these two yesterday and today during shop time.View attachment 2492096View attachment 2492097

They did change the upload process a little, basically adding an extra step. 😒

I can barely keep track of my own motley gaggle of knives, but I cannot remember ever seeing this E.Weck before.
Really great Jackknife, Rachel.

I still have the sowbelly. This might be the longest I've had one knife in my pocket since finding this forum. It's just an awesome knife. It was completely covered in funky old grease and sticky stuff last week and I tossed it in hot water with dish soap and scrubbed with a toothbrush and it came out brand new. Love the stainless and micarta.

The big ol' Queen lock back in the side pocket today. It needs to be broken in. Poor thing has never cut anything before. Turned a walnut bead for it and made a leather fob. Ready to roll.

I'm so glad you snagged that one! Mostly because I still get to see it without coming out of pocket. 😁 The lanyard/bead combo is 💪🏻 !!!

A bunch of fine looking sharp edged equipment that you are showing there Jeff . I have to agree with you on the Bunny being too short Jeff . I still have mine and never carry it anymore even though it is a well built and nice looking knife . I just prefer a little longer knife .
I do have some sample material to use but not much . I always wipe off the stain that I apply until I get the shade that I want . I expect that the worm and bug tracks will come out darker than the rest .

Beautiful ‘21, Pat. So happy you got one.
Modoc ED said:
The salsa is made (store bought actually - really good stuff (Tostitos) ) and Cindy will be making guacamole just before the game. I'm pretty much neutral but lean just a tad to Kansas City. Whoever (or is it whomever) wins the game I just hope it's a good game. This CV Trapper will make a good companion while watching the game. Sausage and waffles for breakfast.

A good game it was, Ed. One for the ages. Hope you had a good day my friend.

Nice easy carry Ed. I'm with you, let it be a good game and leave Taylor Swift out of it!!.

No..Taylor can stay 🤣🤣.
 
Rufus1949 said:
I'm really not upset, he is a new craftsman, so I knew there may be errors. The bones of the knife are good.
Sorry you are still suffering Jack. Do you have something like ambasol to numb it for temporary relief?

Thank you Bob, I've been taking 400mg Ibuprofen in the hope it'll reduce the swelling, as well as ease the pain. Got strong painkillers if I need them :thumbsup:

It is a custom, maker unknown from the Berea area, out of what id say is an old carbon band saw blade. It’s as sharp as a razor. The scales were crudely attached and had wood filler used to cover whatever is holding the otherwise very cool handles on. I made the leather friction fit scabbard. I’d like to find someone to put new scales on it, as I really like the shape of the blade.

It’s full tang and fairly rigid, not a lot of flex.

So ....... I'll make this an Albers Sunday. 😊🥾🏈

Thank you Mr. Jack !
I often wonder if your stag Hartshead Barlow feels lonely when you are totin' around some other knives.
Always a pleasure to see "the father of Hartsheads" re-appear ! :thumbsup:😍😊

Thank you kindly Mr P, your striking trio of Albers Jacks makes for a stunning image :cool: :thumbsup:

Bother. Looks like Imgur has muckled up their site and just wants people to post there. Guess I'll need to find a better, less politicized site. But in the meantime, let's see if this gets us anywhere.

Houston, we have a problem.

Looks like it's Goodbye Imgur.

Yeah, noticed a few days back Frank, very irritating. ImageShack, PB, now Imgur! 🤨 I've been uploading with BF :thumbsup:

No, but they tune into her more than the game Jack. She just dates one of the players.

Oh, really?! :rolleyes: It was a bit like that here with the Beckhams :rolleyes:

Taken me over 2 1/2 hours to catch up with 2 threads! :eek: I don't know how our hardworking mods do it! 🏅🏅🏅

Carrying this small stag SFO today :thumbsup:
