...a stone, a leaf, an unfound treasure. And all the forgotten faces.
Which of us knows our brother's heart? Which of us has looked into the lost faces of time ? O waste of lost that can be found. Remembering speechlessly we seek the great forgotten language, the lost lane-end into heaven, a stone, a leaf, an unfound treasure. Where? When
O lost, and by the winds of fortune found. To speak, to glory, to live.
Ghost, come back again, before, o lost, into the nakedness and night again

I have my Shuffler with me today and she got a workout. When I came out of my apartment this morning our maintenance guy was down by the dumpster trying to cut up an old mattress with a cheap gas station type modern folder that was dull and had been sawing 1 corner for a while with no luck. I handed him my Shuffler and the job was done in just a few minutes.
For Tuesday, I'm totin' two that I haven't toted before: an Edward Weck & Sons sleeveboard pen (1892-1943) and a Robeson SHUREDGE Pocket Eze dogleg jack (1922-1946). The Pocket Eze gets its moniker from the fully sunken joints (Weck's are semi-sunk).

Sporting a French knife today. Sheath by Gary Graley. Nice knife.
Edited to add: nice sheath too!
Very nice indeed Gary
In light of the Spring green-up, I'm totin' some green bone today: a Needham swell center jack in smooth bone and a Case pattern 45 cattle knife in jigged bone. All that I can see on the Needham tang is EEDHAM over HILL ST over SHEFFIELD on the pen and SHEFFIELD over ENGLAND on the spear main. I take that to be Needham Brothers (1860-1900), but I'm unsure....
Very nice Stuart, William Rodgers did similar knives of the same pattern
Needham Brothers certainly went on much later than 1900 Cheers gents, had a great 11 days

. Jack just thought I'd tell you about a programme this morning on BBC Radio 4 at 11.00hrs. "A River of Steel" about the Sheffield steel industry. I'm sure you know more about it than the programme makers but it may be of mild interest. I guess it'll be on iplayer.

I posted earlier today, including comments on posts going back to Saturday, I think.
But I forgot to post any of the knives I'm carrying this week.Here are some of them.
Alox of the Week is Vic Electrician (thanks, Greg):
non-Alox SAK of the Week is a Vic Huntsman:
Stockman of the Week is actually a Kingston cattle knife (thanks, Mark):
Canoe of the Week is a Colt with G-10 covers and Ti-coated carbon steel blades:
- GT
I still can't believe G2 let that little whittler go!
Looks like you are prepared for just about anything. The Vic Electrician is a favorite and that Cattle knife looks like winner.

Due to circumstances beyond my control I started off knife naked this morning!
That has now been remedied by a 77 Yankee Jack in Kingwood.

Thanks Dean! Awesome looking Case !! My Case sodbuster came out to bust a pallet of tile for a remodel. My sister did most of the heavy lifting
Thanks, Gev! Sorry to hear about your sternum (surgery?). But it is good that your sodbuster and sister can do the remodeling.

Now that is a beauty, Gary! I don't think I have seen that BF knife displayed open, but then that was made 11 years ago.
I'm carrying the latest BF forum knife because it is TC Tuesday.
