Out of the drawer containing some of my favorite old knives, my stag T. Turner Encore Pruner (c. 1830-1837), gets the call for duty for the fourth. Featuring all iron construction, flush joints, and some fine old stag, it has a loud ka-chink on the half stop, and a thunderous bear trap snap upon closing. "ENCORE" deeply stamped on the blade. I've never done much to this old knife other than rub the stag with some Dawn detergent on a damp rag and then dry it ...... then a drop of oil on the joint. I guess you could say I maintain it, but it easily sharpens up and I use it for light duty cutting when I need to. The patina is all natural, pitted on the end cap, but, not rusted. I think it is the oldest knife I own, by a fairly large margin. Also will be toting an American made jack made by Camillus during the WWII era.

Have a happy and safe Fourth of July everyone ! 😊🇺🇸💥
