What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Prester John]

ha ha not a misprint it's not unusual to even see -40 Although with global warming the winters have been a little warmer the past decade or so.

If I ever go to Canada, it will be in July! Saw Canada once, from Niagara Falls. May have been May or June. Weather was nice. Lot cooler than Texas, though.

@Duckdog Thanks Stuart,
Unfortunately that particular screw has devoted itself to a team of like minded screws who have committed to supporting an exterior door So in its place I submit a photo of the Imperial electrician performing surgery upon another classic traditional knife I often use (GRAPHIC CONTENT WARNING: Some viewers may find the following image disturbing, due to visible "guts")

Very disturbing, David. But I've seen worse!

What a beauty, Nick!

So very nice, Nick. You, Jack Black , @Gevonovich, and @SteveC keep my nostalgia appreciation at a high level

Thanks Stuart! You guys do the same for me too.

I really should get me a higonokami, since I have (as a former practitioner of japanese martial arts) some love of japanese aesthetics, knives included. It's nice that this knife comes with a pocket pouch. I also love friction folders, so this knife combines some of my favourite things. It is modern with traditional touches. I would not use for anything hard, but as a food prep and office knife it works well.

Have a fantastic day, my friend.

Thanks pal By coincidence, I have slipped one of those in my pocket today too

Thanks for the canoe comments, Jack. Your heraldic horn lambsfoot is high-class, but that Kelly pen is a real dreamboat!

My Lambsfoot of the Week is my rosewood Union Jack:

Thank you very much GT, nice to see your Union Jack

Beautiful knife Nick

And Ukulele Aerobics.

A little overloaded today, with A Wright and three Uticas.

Nicely filled pockets Jer

What a beautiful sleeveboard, Jack! Blades, covers - all make a great piece.

Thank you my kind friend I'll try to show some more of my penknives next week

I'm having a problem with my connection again today, so I'll hopefully upload some pics later, but I'm carrying my BF Drover and my ebony Guardians 2018 Lambsfoot. Have a good Friday folks, the weekend is nearly here

What a bewitching knife, Senhor Pinto!

It's really, thank you very much.

 

[Pt-Luso]

That knife makes me so happy. I smile every time that I look at it. Thank you for sharing it

I am glad that this knife contributes to make you happy, thank you very much for your kindness!

Thanks for the uke info, Jer. With the way the wind was blowing today, being overloaded was a fortunate safety decision, I'd claim!

Yes, a good day for good ballast.

The e-authorities are actually split on whether you can lower your G and play the same chords the same way.
Maybe the simplest thing is to put a low G on one of my ukes and see if the class freaks out.

Thanks, Jack.
I thought the schizoid jack had plastic handles, but my recent pictures seem to show a very fine grain, on the red side at least.

The first thing I grabbed this morning:

My wife & I will be heading over to the annual three day county flea market & tractor show today. Her radar can pick out a vendor's table with Pyrex on it from a mile away, while I'm always drawn to vendors with old knives, tools, etc. I'll have this & an Alox Cadet with me.

Other than the food & seeing friends, I don't know why we bother. We're 70 years old & almost all the stuff we find at those places looks exactly like the junk we've stuffed in the attic or got tired of looking at & already donated to Good Will.

 

[screened porch]

I see stuff I'm still using at the antique stalls.

Food and friends is reason enough.

 

[Ironbut]

Food and friends is reason enough.

There are a few events like it around here every year. People come up here from the flatlands & suburbs to see us old farts show off vintage tractors, old craft making, & demos on how things were done in the old days. We pretty much sit around like that banjo playing kid from Deliverance & watch the city slickers & hippies. It's entertainment.
