What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Ironbut]

No Brakes and no freewheel. I ride in town and out in the countryside. It takes some practice (near misses) but I can skid it if its a panic situation. Going back and forth between the rode bike and track bike makes it interesting.

I'd hurt myself. No doubt in my mind.

Took the old Italian track bike on a 12 miler last night. Carried the 301 and still carrying this morning at work.

Nice Viner! I never had the nuts to try riding with no brakes. The New Yorker magazine just featured an illustration of the legendary Major Taylor on the cover.

Can’t see past the cypress tree here in the City by the Bay! There are times when I can’t see the end of the block but not today…yet. Naw I’m pretty sure it’s going to clear up later. In the meantime here’s to Wooden Wednesday! Have a great day folks!

Cosimo lamb paired with the River Town Jack I won in the GAW Fixall hosted a while back.

That lamb! Cosimo is so darn good! I really love my lamb from him. And his jigging!!

I’m glad the River Jack is being used!

Wonderful antique dominoes, must have some age to them and a great sound when in use Somehow always prefer black on white dominoes -age well, irrational I know but prefer brown or coloured eggs to white

Douk-Douk a knife of Gallic genius and simplicity , that must be an oldy. No knife collection/accumulation/hoard/dump is complete without one

You’re right those dominoes are quite old and make great “music” on the table!

As for the Douk Douk in the picture, it’s actually the current model, I just use it a lot and modded the blade for fun.

Now here’s a quite old and rare one…A new old stock model from 1932. Looking good for 90+ years! Can you spot the differences?

Thanks, that guy was ahead of his time.

I never rode a track bike. I can see that being a fixed gear would give more control. Freewheel with no brakes =
