Have a nice day :)
 
+ ing to RFP. KA-BAR 1081 Stockman (3 3/16 inch closed - Barlow size.) after cleaning/sharpening/lubing.
There were a couple looked like active rust spots on the clip point and Spey. WEN multi speed "Dremel" with polishing wheel loaded with green rouge got rid of the spots, lighter blade scratches and all but the deepest bolster scratches. Did a pretty decent job of cleaning back springs and brass liners, too.

ink converter eye dropper gives tiny drops of oil, so less mess. 😁👍

Sneaky Saturday with a bit of a confession... I own a CobraTec😱 I've got to say, this new bolster release "Trapper" auto is a huge departure from their normal stuff and definitely will have me keeping more of an eye on them in the future...it's THAT good🤯

Baby, it's cold outside! The 3 amigos are visiting my bird feeders this morning. I tossed a couple of scoops of birdseed on the snow for them.
I'm carrying my Ron Lake - Paul Chen Interframe tail lock collaboration today. It gets used gingerly and carried in a shearling-lined slip from Beard and Owl.

I suspect the Imperial Frontier Double Eagle, and the Swing Blade due to arrive 02-20-24 are going to give this and the Case 10375 a run for the title, despite having stainless blades ... 🙄

Might be another year of "can't choose just 1" (per the rules) so no crowned winner possible. 🤔🤨
