I like that photo, Barrett! Is that a CV chestnut jigged bone mini trapper? I think that's next on my list of purchases from that Case series.

Thanks for sharing the knives you got for your offspring, Anthony; lots of variety! And thanks for the reading suggestions.I don't think I've ever read a "grown-up" version of Homer (i.e., an actual translation), and hope I can look up Lattimore this summer. Coincidentally, the past couple of meetings of a history/philosophy of math. class I'm teaching were devoted to Archimedes, and I ran across a quote from Voltaire (consider the source): There is an astonishing imagination, even in the science of mathematics. ... We repeat, there was far more imagination in the head of Archimedes than in that of Homer.

Thanks Gary; I actually do have a decision coin, and it goes well with the Wall Street model.

Jack, Your mention of Bernard S. Mason made me dig out one of his books.
That's a fine looking old knife, Jack!
