Time for bed, near 2am here, I'm no Lark but a unrepentant Owl 🦉

I will be carrying this on Tuesday- shot is poor but midnight sun and all that just to give you the idea. Many thanks to @Oldy for doing a trade over this and very.
big hand to pat9198 pat9198 for helping out in a vital fashion 🏆

Never say never. I don't have any blue knives as don't like the colour too much on knives...and...not seen the sense in single Spey knives. Here we have the 39 in a very nice cobalt blue Micarta with long graceful Sway ( a graceful Gelding blade???:eek:o_O ) Superb finish and an interesting and different knife, where I do stay stick in the mud is that I prefer the single blade. If it has 2 blades ,then I greatly prefer them each end not same end.For if it has 2 springs then I want 3 blades as Whittler or Stockman.

It’s funny how well that one worked out, Will. Happy to help! 😁

Your photo looks good to me. Great example, blue looks good on you. 👍

I hate to hear that :( We have a lot of ash trees in Missouri. I remember the seventies in Detroit. There were all these streets with big, beautiful elm trees lining them, and then within a couple of years Dutch Elm Disease killed them all. And then when the Pine Bark beetle came through the Cumberland Plateau and killed all the pine trees. Mother Nature is ruthless 👹

Vernors! I remember the factory in, IIRC, Hamtramck, Michigan had these large, street facing windows where you could watch it being made. That was when they were a small, local company before they got swallowed up by a conglomerate. It was the only ginger ale I thought was fit to drink. In fact it was my favorite soda when I drank soda 👍👍👍
The quesadillas don't look to shabby either

Allow me to be succinct: No
😛

I hope you're upwind. Stay safe 🙏🤞

They grew a lot of hemp in western Missouri to be used as rope by the Navy in WWII. When I worked out there, you would occasionally see it growing in roadside ditches. It became known as "ditch weed".

Thanks for helping out my memory. It was indeed the west/n.west part of the state where I saw all the ditchweed. Missouri River bottoms, not Mississippi River…

I was through there quite a bit when I was hauling propane.
My one trip to the other side, the super flat fields and straight ditches was a much different and somber trip when my son and I had to go down and retrieve his late brother’s Buell.

Stag/Horn Knife of the Week is a Rough Rider stag medium trapper.
(Interesting coincidence in my rotation schedule this week - yesterday I posted a RR stag medium stockman and today this RR stag medium trapper, both of which black mamba black mamba agreed to sell me, along with a RR stag sowbelly stockman, several years ago. :thumbsup::cool:)



Work Knife of the Week is a Camillus civilian TL-29:

I'm finally giving this another shot today. I hammered the pivot tight enough where it won't open in my pocket, which is why it's been sitting the bench forever.

The lock is definitely not needed. It would be nice if it had a catch to help keep the blade closed, but it's a friction folder and there's not much danger of it closing on me.

Other than that it's a great size and shape. Very slicey.
