Very cool Peanut. :cool:
You trying to get used to small knives again? ;)

That Runt is a stunner, John! I've got a soft spot for little fixed blades, and that looks like one I'd like.

Thanks, Gary. :)
I've been wanting a small pocket-able fixed blade and jumped at this one when I saw it.
Peregrin said:
Is that a pocket sheath you made for it? Very nice,

That's an early prototype pocket slip that didn't work out... but amazingly it works well with the Runt after a little wet molding.

Gorgeous knife, Jack. 🤠:thumbsup:
I always thought one day I'd grab one of those Speaker Jacks or an Irish Jack... guess I waited too long. ;)

Thanks buddy, there aren't too many knives I regret getting, since I reckon I have more than enough as it is! :D ;) :thumbsup:

Starting off with these two as I enjoy my morning coffee...

Yup, the non-bleeding was a mistake so I have to go back tomorrow. Non-fasting, though. I'd better take a walk today and bring down that A1c.😁

I'll be prepared: Norlund, Gerber, Western, and Uncle Bill's Army sewing kit.

Except the leather case was made in England expressly for B. Altman and Co of NY, so maybe that wasn't government issue.

Sentimental favorites~ Siberian Iris. Brought a sackfull of tubers to this house thirty something years ago from Grandma’s place. She’d had them untold years, through three different locations. Just like the Bearded Iris in my first picture, I have them scattered all over the property. Three different perennial borders/gardens, and naturalized in the edges of the woods, and in the wildflowers. Everywhere I stick them, they seem to thrive and multiply.View attachment 1570318Wild buttercups that inadvertently came along with some Norway Maples I dug out of the ditch at a family place in Wisconsin.

Oh. Were we talking about knives? #23 Oregon Trapper which nails both Trapper Tuesday, and Tidiute Tuesday.
And a Camillus TL-29 I rehandled in cow bone.

Nice job on the TL-29.

I'm not much of a social media guy (other than BF ;)), and don't know exactly what "trending" means, but I think those handsome Case medium jacks were trending last week on The Porch! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:

I meant to get one of those Case Medium jacks for some time before I finally bought that one a few years ago. It's a good knife.

A nice group of knives again today, Gary. I like the nautical theme.

I see you are a Vonnegut fan; I read Slaughtehouse-Five many years ago and then proceeded to read every one of his books I could get my hands on. I may read some of them again sometime. :thumbsup: :D

Thank you very much Dean, you're very kind :) :thumbsup:

I was thinking the same about GT's Vonnegut collection :) I should also start re-reading, most of the Vonnegut I read was in my late teens! :D I just have so many books to read though! :rolleyes: :D :thumbsup:
