Johnny, glad you were able to spend time with your Dad today. My Dad lives in a nursing home 2000 miles away so we were only able to FaceTime him on an iPad I left there. He is not technically savvy at all so it only took 3 phone calls and about 10 minutes to get him to answer the call๐Ÿ‘. He was able to see his Great Grandson and namesake, Papa Bear and Baby Bear. According to my Dad the two of them are very much alike, both bald and they both drool a lot๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ. Enjoy your Christmas with your Dad!!
 
Merry Christmas to all. I am enjoying good company amongst loved ones, nice food and fondling my last knife purchase of 2025, this little darling.

I like those old time Whittlers, Cal. In fact, a Schrade Cut Co version just like yours might be my most recent knife purchase as well. Except mine has a couple of scale cracks.
Sweet lookin canine companion, my friend.

Not the finest of fine cuisine, Johnny. But visiting your Dad for Christmas? I'd be willing to bet that was very special for him๐Ÿค™
Well done, Buddy ~ love the smile on his mug.

Stag and Ivory Allen & Son for a Christmas tote. I thought it would be fitting to bring out the good stuff for this special day.

Excellent selections. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘
A very nice key wind watch you have there. ๐Ÿ˜ป
Do you know the year the watch was made?
I'm guessing 1860's to 1880's.

My key wind (1885 Elgin H.H. Taylor) needs work.
I think it had a wrong replacement hair spring (too short) installed sometime in its history, (it runs 5 minutes fast per day.) when new it was rated at +/-5 minutes a week.) and the main spring may have taken a set, since it only runs around 22 hours per wind instead of 36+ hours.
