Lunch at the Ugly Dog in Highlands with my polished stag GEC 25.
My wife, "Put that away before you trigger someone!" LOL...
Ratbert please tell me hipsters haven't taken over Highlands/Cashiers.
Am going out tonight, so I need a carry knife to match my attire - Case equal end pen with imitation pearl scales. This one is from 1905-1920 and is 3 1/4" closed, but I'm not sure that it is a Pattern 30. Need to do some more research (and get debris out of the nail pull).

Thanks, Ratbert, I was lucky to get it that way.Wow, that Case is in beautiful shape!
The Old North State has a long history of the seasonal (pre-air conditioning) visitor traffic from NYC to Asheville/Blowing Rock to Miami and back. The Vanderbilts and Flagler were related in many ways. It explains the early over abundance of fine antique stores in Flat Rock, Blowing Rock, Grandfather Mountain, et al. Now, Portlandia has descended on As-ville.Nary a hipster...appears to be mostly over-tanned retirees from Boca and Miami.
