Going lightweight today. This bugger will be plenty, Sawcut green bone SS Peanut.

Heading out to bury my father.
There will be a lot weight on me today regardless.

Grace and peace to you and your family during this difficult time.

This one is actually a Cuban cattle knife. However, I agree with your take on the 53E lineman. It is very useful, with the two sheepsfoot blades it's the blue collar muskrat.

Oops. I guess the wood fooled me.

As today goes by, I’ll be thinking of you.
Got to say, your photo is well done. I immediately thought funeral.

Stag/Horn Knife of the Week is a Colt stag muskrat:




Work Knife of the Week is a no-name SAK clone that belonged to Julian, across the street. His widow gave it to me about a year ago.

This should do it.

I guess I can cut up that shoe-box pretty soon.

The kind of specimen that would make me feel more like a museum curator than a knife owner.
That one is special

This should do it.

You’re not going to save it for the next eclipse?

I'm impressed with how close they got the nail nick to the spine of the blade on the electrician's knife. These are classics.

You can see in the first picture that there is a check/crack running through the center pin at the well so I sanded the check/crack to see if it was indeed a crack that went all the way through the cover slab or just a shallow check. Turns out that it was just a shallow check in the wood slab. As a result, the shield sat just a hair proud so rather than mess with it I just removed the shield. It's turned out to be a solid knife and I use it quite a bit for rugged tasks. I like the contrast of the black ebony against the bright metal so I polish out the blade patina after use. It's the only knife I do this to.

Ah, us boys and our knives, we just can’t leave well enough alone. I probably would have done the same thing. All in all, still a beautiful knife.

Busy morning. Errands to do in town - post office, bank, fuel depot, and a 100 pound bag of cracked corn for the sister-in-law for her bird feeders.

The box, no. I'll probably still have the shoes.

Isn't cracked corn also used for Hominy and/or Grits, among other things?

Sis-In-Law must have the best fed birds, squirrels, deer, turkey, and pheasants in the area.

Sunny day chasing the clouds away in the City by the Bay! Not much on the agenda for today. Keeping me company the usual lamb and Cattlemen. Have a great day folks!

I went to the glamorous supermarket cafe in a retail park for Shakshuka and eggs again today.

It was even better that the first time I tried it,along with a good strong pot of tea,great value.



Its not from Spain as I thought though.

"Shakshuka is a savoury one-pan vegetarian dish, originating from North Africa. It typically consists of gently poached eggs in a spiced tomato sauce, with vegetables and warming spices such as paprika and cumin".



To balance up the glamour of the retail park cafe I took a photo on my Canadian Case at the back of a furniture shop nearby.

As I dont want you thinking I am one of the false, everything is great in life FB/IG influencers (as if you did).


I also bought 4 packets of these biscuits.

French biscuits with English tea is the perfect combination (if you tell the French I said that I will deny everything).
