I took my CJ out on a trip to the old railway today for Sunday lunch.

I didn’t expect to buy a heavy chunk of railway line.

Sold as a door stop I reckon it will make a handy little anvil.

That's not a doorstop. It's cutler's anvil.
So start modifying your knives

Love the cup

Thanks, I swiped it from the Farm Bureau's kirchen. The cabinets were full of coffee cups, as if the local garden club ladies dumped them there instead of throwing them away.
I'll shoot the logo on the other side tomorrow. I think it's from a garden club in England.

Is that the shrouded hammer model? If so I have always wanted one of those.

Yes, a '50s made Airweight Bodyguard. Later called Mod.38.
The shroud has a slot that allows you to cock the hammer for single action if you want, but really no need because the double action is nice and smooth.

Absolutely love those bolsters, Will!



That’s a quality pair, Paul! (You can tell I’m catching up on this thread, because I don’t think you even have that blade-swapped Bunny Knife anymore.)



Makes sense!




The dye job makes all the difference on those! Been loving mine ever since I got it back from @Travman and Nathan!

Wow! Are they charging by the gram?!



Belated congrats on the anniversary, Jeff. That’s a great story!



Looks refreshing!



That pair would cover about 99.9% of my daily cutting needs.



Great pic with the pups in the background!



That’s my go-to sharpening method. I’ve got two 8” x 3” Dia-Sharps in Fine and Extra Fine that easily handle most of the knives I need to sharpen.



Sorry to hear that, Mike. Best of luck with everything!



Seems like a belt and suspenders type of situation.




You must really like that one!

Here’s an extra pic I took yesterday of the Rosewood HHB I had with me.

Thanks, Barret. Nice to see you catching up.
The worst thing about the DiaSharps is I don't get out the oulstones as often.

Canoes of the Week are an amber jigged bone Rough Rider mini canoe and an oriental Queen winterbottom-ish bone canoe with single spring and 440C blades.

Thanks Barrett. Appreciate it

Unusually good stag for a rough rider.

This is quickly becoming a regular.

Thanks, but It’s actually “Cinnamon Stag Bone” on my Rough Ryder stockman. Lance

I’ve only recently started warming to acrylic covers and this DeadSkunk is my first..

 

[black mamba]

Neal, I just love that Russell stockman, a real treasure! This is my favorite oldie, a Robeson from the 1950s.

For what it is worth, I think you can still get that combo with black delrin, CS, and a punch. I am not sure if it is a distributor exclusive or not from a hill named big distributor, but you may be able to snag it there.

If it's the place I'm thinking of they don't have it listed anymore. I may have just waited too long. Priorities always get in the way

Seems like a belt and suspenders type of situation.

A quality belt makes a difference

I'm loving both of those!
The Imperial EZ open with the bail is just a cool piece
I've never seen anything like that U.S.N. Colonial before. Do you have any more info or history about it???

JTF. Great photos as usual. I really enjoy your postings and getting to see parts of England that otherwise I would not see. John

Personally modded Case single blade Trapper for some Micarta Monday action along with a well worn hat.




(EZ open added)

Have a great week y'all!

Lucky 13 today, Tidioute that is, not Heddon (an inside joke for the fellow fishermen.)

Thanks, friend. It's another one of mine that I gave a dye bath to mellow out the bone color. When new it was a very electric looking orange and yellow.

Well you did one excellent job. Well done. Thanks for telling me that so I didn’t spend the next 10 years searching and thinking “nope, that one is too electric.”
