Toting my pocket reds today.

I found this Klein TL-29 in an old toolbox recently.
It's a work in progress right now, it's cleaning up nice though. It was missing the bail, so I drilled out the previous hole to clean it up & installed a brass insert made from an old fitting. Then added the bail back on.
A perfect candidate for Thrifty Thursday!

I love seeing old tools brought back to life so they can keep on working & being enjoyed.
Dang it holo07 , you're just putting fuel on the fire for new tinkering projects!


P.S. As an example see my previous post

P.P.S. I enjoy seeing what you find & clean up, keep them coming

Interesting celluloid. How is it holding up? I don't see any obvious signs of offgassing.

Yes I enjoy these little projects, they keep me off the couch when I get home after work.

Recycled picture but this old 18 today. I always forget how nice the 18 carries.

Case Knife of the Week is a brown Delrin stainless Peanut I won in a GAW here (thanks, Cory). It's the first Case knife I ever touched!

Colonial/Imperial/Schrade Knife of the Week is an Imperial serpentine clip/pen jack that lost its cover material (thanks, Dave):

So far I don't detect any sign of off-gassing or deterioration. I have a few celluloid handled folders and I keep them out in the open and away from my other knives, I've heard the horror stories about aging cell. I picked this one up a couple years ago specifically because I like the look of waterfall celluloid, and I like copperheads.
Thanks for the interest, friend.

Is that the blue agate ESPL? Great looking. Mine was way darker.

Yup, I like this material for a knife handle way more than I thought I would. It does look pretty light in this picture but it’s a few shades darker in most lighting.
