Here it is almost bedtime and I haven't done my Monday BF posts yet! o_O

Cleaning back porch and basement stairs, waiting around for the annual furnace check, paying bills on the bank's new "improved" website, reading 6 weeks' worth of news emails from where I used to work (found a 50% off coupon for Wolverine and/or Merrell boots), ordered new license tabs for the car and took wife's absentee ballot to the post office, and turned that post office trip into a 6-mile walk. My wife took our dog in for a check-up on an eye ulcer he's had for a couple of months, and found out his cornea has perforated sometime over the past 2 days. So he has to have the eye removed tomorrow morning. Eventful day...

SAK of the Week is a Top Ten SAK for me, a silver Alox Farmer (thanks, Tom):

Stockman of the Week is a Black Box Winchester Sowbelly (that didn't even make my Top Ten stockman list - that's crazy :rolleyes:):

Sorry to hear about your dog's eye! Hope he recovers quickly.

Give that dog a hug from us.
 
Same.

Tho I improved the Huntsman with "PLUS" scales with both pin and pen slots, replaced the original "sore thumb white" toothpick and tweezers with red (also replaced the white toothpick on the Mini Champ with red.) and added the pen. (The Red side tools look much better, IMHO. They no longer stick out like a sore thumb.) The faded to pink ball head pin was replaced with an orange ball head. New sewing kit lacked a pin with an red ball. 😢
For the time being I removed the home made fob in the above photo, in favor of a VIC red & black Swiss Cross fob/zipper pull.

The "PLUS" scales were 3D printed and sent to me by G ghostguy6 . (Thank You, again.😁👍)
The Mini Champ remains on my Nite-Ize "big foot" keyring, clipped to the 09:00/21:00 belt loop.

I've never carried this old TL-29. I bought for less than the shipping fee planning on re-scaling it. May still do that/may not. For some reason, it reminds me of r8shell r8shell . And I don't feel the broken cocobolo in my hand. Looks like hell, but I hate to lose the TL-29 stamp. I will file down the sharp ends of the broken shackle (bail in some parts of the country). I do feel those.
Springs seem factory fresh, snap is great.
I like how Schrade stamped both blades.

Bonus point if you can tell me where I bought that hat!
