What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[JJ Cahill]

Thanks for the info, JJ; very interesting bone!
Wow, I always have trouble handling the "politics and personalities" of just ONE department!

Thanks Gary! It seems the Professorial world is punctuated by "P's." The first set is "publish or perish" followed shortly thereafter by "politics and personalities;" possibly my brother decided to circumvent the latter possibilities by proliferating the probability between 3 departments?
Btw, you have quite the excellent array of totes today with a sowbelly, 2 canoes (1 gunboat),2 muskrats, a cannitler, and a Spanish beauty; quite a cool eyeful!!!

walnut for wednesday

Now that's quite a robust pair; I love the spear on your Pal, outstanding totes Jeff!

We call this cactus mother-in-law's cushion

Not only a great image, but a hilarious epithet as well!!!

Wow Harvey, these two fabulous beauties were certainly made for each other; wonderful images as well!

A couple of Utica Kutmasters today

Those are most certainly a couple of very cool Kutmasters, Steve; great shot too!

Here's to a Wonderful Wednesday*for all. I'm totin' an Aerial senator (1912-1944) and a Miller Bros. barehead jack (1872-1926) today.

If it weren't for your latrine duty, toting those 2 would make for a perfect morning; amazing Miller Bros jack!!!

Beautiful stuff, JJ. My Pavlovian response to the mention or smell of juniper is to mix a Martini (well, maybe later).

Thanks Stuart!!! I can see your Pavlovian response certainly took hold helping you ease through the night!

I recently learned the history of how important the invention of a "safety can opener" was. It addressed the many injuries Soldiers and Marines were incurring during WWII from the old "claw style" opener. In 1944 an employee of Imperial invented the new safety can opener which occurred at the Camillus factory, during a meeting with the War Dept. It was patented by Imperial and debuted to the public in their first Official Boy Scout knife of 1946; my scout tote today along with a favorite Case Barlow from the 1940-64 period.

Chris, I liked your Peanut so much that I swapped out my woodies for some smaller totes to end the evening: a Queen #42 (an 1/8" shorter than the Peanut) and a Schrade 108OT (the same size as the "Nut). Easing through the night.

Nice way to end the evening. I just don't think I could have taken that Aerial or the Miller Bros. out of my pocket
