What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Hatchet_Jack]

Good and bad moments, we’re sitting down having a cheese and fruit platter so I figured I’d bring out one of my favourite knives.

Managed to get one ok photo with some blue cheese and my Celeste fig. I sat the knife down and was chatting to my wife when she noticed one of my boys was dragging it across the concrete. Not overly happy!

Jack, nothing that some 1000 grit sandpaper can’t fix with some elbow grease!

Ahead of you on that mate.

Started at 400 and worked up to 1500 just now. All but a few of the deepest ones are gone. I’ll buff the bolster up at some point to match the other side.

I suppose 10,000 was a wee exaggeration, but I’ve got it down under 5K now. Deleting mid 2019 right now. Paying the price for posting nonsense and gobbledygook every day!

Nothing else to do, because I’ve got the ‘Vid. My 90 yr old Dad got hauled off to the emergency room Sunday. I spent the entire day with him down there in Aurora, in close contact ~ moving him, helping him pee, etc. pretty much like a nurse, Then the ER doc came in and said “guess who’s got covid?” His covid is pretty much under control, but it seems to have triggered some kind of mental break or dementia. So I was hoping in vain to be there when his doctor popped in on rounds. Not sure Mom absorbs everything, or asks the right questions.
Then I spent all day Tuesday with him and Mom in his room, so I guess I was asking for it. Not as bad as the first time I had it, really just a slammin’ flu, and I got hold of my doc early enough to get started on Paxlovid.

The good news is that I got out of cleaning house. We had planned on having a bunch of family out for Easter, but that aint happenin now. And I guess I’ll just have to smoke that 20lb turkey for just the three of us

Wow, a lot has happened since I saw you last week. Good of you to be there for your dad and mom. I hope everyone is feeling better and back to your normal routines soon.
Easter is such a great time for family gatherings but sometimes the best plans get shot down due to illness. Sorry your family's Easter plans got side smacked.

Thank you Jeff. It's cocobolo
Too bad it darkens with age and the vibrant colors fade.
I still love cocobolo though!

A cocobolo feast !!!

Glowing in the sunlight ... that will eventually make it fade

I think you've outdone the chickadees, friend!!! Fantastic job!!!

I hope you and your dad make a full recovery. Tough way to get out of house cleaning.
