I enjoy your flower shots, Joel.
It’s nice to see so many 71s being used. I used mine this morning to cut some dill and basil among other things to take to Mom.
But I switched to a Case Whittler to attend a memorial. Being well into their ‘80s, my parents are losing too many good friends. :(

Third one in a month ~ all, including my aunt, passed last year (not of the C-19, just oldness, so the memorials had to be postponed.

Thank you for the kind compliment Jeff.

Peace to you and yours…
 
Thanks Jeff. One of the reasons I like this thread is I get to see all these different knives and here their stories. I started obtaining some tl-29 or electrician knives after seeing alot of yours. Also the donor you gave me came out pretty good and is one of my favorites.
Being an enabler is often a bad thing, but being a TL-29 enabler is a noble calling.
Glad you got a Craftsman. I suspect, but don’t know for certain, that Schrade Walden made those for Sears.
Stuck with this Old Timer 58OT since Thursday. Funny thing, the Delrin was turning whitish when I pulled the knife out Thursday, but I used an old photo that showed the handles when they looked real nice and clean. I took a new photo but didn’t post it - now after three days in my pocket all the whitish haze on the Delrin is gone and the handles look like the old photo - real clean again! Carrying a knife may be the easiest way to clean white hazy Delrin. OH

That’s interesting, Bruce. That white haze on delrin is common.
Then there’s the other kind of white~ where you find a knife that sat in a store display or window sill for years, and one side is sun faded white, while the other looks factory fresh.

I’m sure you are a great caregiver, Jon!
Dan, if you scratch your wife’s dining room table, there will be trouble.
I have a story about re-wiring an electric guitar and how a mysterious soldering iron burn happened on our antique oak dining room table...

Great user Barrett :cool: :thumbsup:

Thanks, Jack. I haven’t used it for much yet, but it does seem like a decent little knife for the price.

Have a good Sunday folks :) :thumbsup: Got my 2019 Guardians Lambsfoot SFO, and the #85 Barrett gifted me in Sheffield :) :thumbsup:

Jack, I was going to ask if that was the Ironwood sample that you picked up at Wright’s that same day (which would make that pairing particularly excellent 🙂), but after a quick glance back in the Guardians thread (all the way back to page 504!) I saw that it was not. And then I remembered the ordeal with the Butter-Fingered Oaf… :oops: (Am I remembering correctly that you were at least able to get the Ironwood sample mended after that?)

Have a nice Sunday, my friend! 😀 :thumbsup:
