Love that patch job, Rick!

You bought it at the sex shop and they came in sets of 2,I was fortunate my wife only bought the dare cap,but has since hidden it in the attick .so what do I win.

Some say a good BBQ joint is better than sex, so there's that.
What is a dare cap?

Did someone call me? That old TL-29 has lots of years left in it. If it gets uncomfortable to hold, you can always patch it with some epoxy.

Here's one I did, adding some brown powder pigment to somewhat match the bone:
Before:

After:

Anyway...here's what was in my pocket today (it also has a little bit of epoxy on it)

I think I know where the hat came from, but I admit I cheated by consulting Google.

I remember that knife, my friend
Next time you get down to Houston, be sure to put TRUTH BBQ into your phone's map app.

Truth or Consequences, NM??

Named after the '50s TV show, right?

The hat came from TRUTH BBQ in Houston. We had to fly down there for a nephew's wedding (sorry, but we spent your gift money on airfare, hotels, and car rental). My son's friend told him it was the best BBQ joint in Houston.
Got a tour of the smoke pit, and found out they exclusively use post oak. That was my step Grandad's wood of choice for his fireplace.

Whittler for Whittler Wednesday, and Tidiute 54 Jack.

A partly cloudy start to the day here in the City by the Bay! The sun is trying hard to peek through. Keeping me company with a nod to Wooden Wednesday a lamb and a Bell. Have a great day folks!

I'm dropping our Labrador off at the vet this morning for a minor surgical procedure. She's getting a small growth removed from her eyelid, and we should be able to pick her up this afternoon. She isn't allowed any food or water, and the poor thing thinks she's being punished for something.

Extra treats when she gets home will help her forgive you.

Case Knife of the Week is a blue jigged bone with red shield Wharncliffe/pen mini copperhead, maybe my most visually appealing knife and a member of my Case Top Ten:

Colonial/Imperial/Schrade Knife of the Week is an oriental "Imperial Schrade Work Knife" (AKA sodbuster jr, with 2.75" blade) that is still available for under $6 - it must be some kind of sorcery that they can sell a knife this good for that price!

Dan, your Bell has a beautifully proportioned clip blade. Looks like a good, large nail nick and some nice ironwood, too.

Decided to use some of my 'nicer' knifes this year. Why keep saving them? Let them get a little patina and form a 'use bond' with them I say! Here's an M&G I love that formerly was on the untouchable list...

47F when I got up a while ago. Up to 63F now. Sunny and pretty

As I slowly enter geezerdom the nail file has become preferable to the small blade

Calf Roper today. Sausage and eggs-up for breakfast. Staying home except for a short run up to the mailboxes this afternoon.



Wishing the best for Ironbut 's pup's dog surgery.
