Another beautiful day at the lake. I may get the boat out for a quick bit of fishing before the ‘Ohio Navy’ descends on the lake for the holiday weekend!!🤪🤔 Still toting the 31 and Huntsman and they are capably handling and cutting duties that come my way. If you look closely at the photo (see arrow), you can see the ‘panfish predators’ … no fish is too small … length limits be damned!!

Turns out we didn't have to go to Reno. They stabilized our niece and hopefully she'll be home Saturday the doctors say. Cindy has a dental appointment later today. I'll be carrying this CV 6235 1/2 Swell End/Capped Jack. It's only 3 1/4" long closed - makes for an easy carry. Sausage and eggs for breakfast.

Good news about your niece. Hopefully, she continues to improve. Love that 35, which looks very much like what I posted above. Mine is unmarked and I had thought it was a 31, but I guess they’re similar? I agree that these make for an easy carry. My favorite carry.

The 6231 1/2 is 3 3/4" long closed. The 6235 1/2 is 3 1/4" long closed.

Carrying this nice Brother 1512 folder that just arrived today, nice inexpensive knife that is well made.

Here you can see how the whipping knot prevents the lanyard from sliding around the end of the handle

and normal position it falls down along the spine of the handle

Interesting slogan on the blade, Gary!! "One Knife One Life"!!
Where was it made???
 
Yes it is, for what these cost, I think around the low $20 which kinda tells where it is made, it doesn't say so on the knife but my guess is China is the source. Very smooth opening, solid lockup and centered blade. Blade is ground down fairly thin so it cuts very well.

I leave the lanyard a little longer so it drapes out of the pocket for easier retrieval

My house has a garden from a club on the other side of my fence its poorly maintained (like a rubbish tip).

Its overgrown and pulled my fence down before, I noticed more growth coming though so gathered some tools to go and see whats what.

I have to go a long way around, so guessed what tools I might need, so I dont go back and forth.

I am looking for old shears to replace my modern tools,as you would expect.



I love this big old Opinel no9,it cracks me up when people say they dont like Opinel.

The opinel saw is very aggressive (I lock it in the shed when it doesent behave 🤣 ) its very easy to fold and carry safely.

Then I just fancied taking my old Barlow as no one had bought it from my sales add,I thought it fitted in with and made a good trio for a working party.

When I got around the back it was so overgrown with brambles and the like I couldnt get anywhere near my fence to cut the rubbish off.

Still it was a nice little walk. 😅

Ive called the council as they lease the land (a whole new meaning to "grass"). 😁

This one resides quietly near the bed & breakfast we stay at during our annual trip to the island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea. I passed it while going with my daughter to say good evening to the cows, and figured it could make a nice background for a knife pic 😉

I bet the milk,butter and cheese is nice in that area. 😍
