[Rufus1949]

Hey Porch friends.
Two of our grandchilluns, the Colorado ones are here for the week. Eight and four 1/2. Love it, but I am tired. Very tired.

Schrade Walden Serpentine Jack, and Victorinox 7/Harvester, but my Hori-Hori and garden fork were the tools of the day.

Great "garden tools" Jeff.
If we could only harness their energy...rest up for tomorrow.

Anyone else think the #39 looks like a #74 that’s been washed then dried in a hot dryer?

Hoping to have the same matching set myself in a week or so, just gotta track down one of those beaver 39s

Second thought...looks like a toasted Tomato .

Toast is extra !

OK ..... I just gotta ask ....... what did you do to that bone ? I haven't ever seen the Chestnut look like that from the factory.
Fantastic Case Bose WT !

Glad you and your big cat made it through the storms; seems like you're getting more than your share of dicey weather this spring. Sorry you lost your redbud. We used to have an unattractive mulberry tree in our side yard, but we got rid of it and I rented a Rototiller to make the hill from our house to the alley on that side less steep. Then we replaced the mulberry with a redbud, and put in some other plants. But an ice storm took out the redbud one spring. We replaced it with a Juneberry tree, which is nice, but we still miss the redbud.

Thank you GT !

I've been thinking the same thing about more than our share of dicey weather. I put a flag pole where the redbud use to be. Fortunately, I have two remaining redbuds in my back yard. Tore down on Memorial Day ........ I'm hoping the pole and flag helps Mother Nature behave.

That Belknap!!!!!

Thank you ........ it's a really nice one, IMO.

Looks pretty nice from where I sit. Stain or dye can sometimes be a solution, but, even I'm a bit squeamish about doing that to a new knife.

This slicer was a kind gift from Mitch. What an edge it takes!!

It says "Friction draft gear" on the other side. Apparently a bumper for railroad cars, invented by Cardwell around 1960.

One of my favorites of the "Big Toe" folders with purty wood and one critter.
I would enjoy seeing a picture with that whale upright and the knife in a closed position.
