What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[screened porch]

Glad you managed to get it fixed! They still make that pattern in Sheffield, not sure why it was named, maybe good for cutting rubber hoses?

Or for de-burring cut copper pipe?

Maybe? Easier with a file though, and hard on a knife edge. I guess, originally, the pipe would have been lead (hence the name plumber, from the Latin plumbum), which would have been more easily cut with a knife I don't know if they still sell to plumber's or not, but Plumber's Knives are still among the few pocket-knife patterns made by A.Wright & Sons. Certainly nothing fancy.

In my case, that would be most useful for cutting the stupid little plastic bags they sell the little washers and fittings in.

Anyway, I'm ready for anything today:

That better!

Better than better, it's beautiful!

Humppa, that gawith apricot used to be my go to snuff years ago. Used to snuff toque too. It's a shame snuff isn't popular in the USA anymore.
48 stag today. 98 cattle being shy and staying in my pocket.

How is it used? Like chewing baccy?

It's nasal snuff. The really old way of using tobacco. You sniff it lightly to coat the inside of your nostrils but you don't inhale. It's a pretty strong nicotine hit too. I found an old tin of it. Very fine powder.

That better!

Wonderful Jack. I always like to see that Davison.

This is what I like in a knife, single-spring two blades. If I lost this, I'd be lost!
Black Box Swell Centre Pen. Enjoy the rest of the w-end.

Wonderful knife @Will Power

Ah yes, that's the stuff from the old movies, I'm picturing some French Lord taking a sniff (snuff?) from a small box. And sometimes you sneeze, or is that just the movies?

My Case/ Bose has the weekend off:


Off to do some weeding!

Cheers Jack. Btw I saw those plumbers knives in Barnitts in York last week, for not many groats. I just thought they were some variation of a pruner.
