ER seemed to be stretched pretty thin, poor things. They didn't have much patience for my merry banter. That never happens.
Thanks a lot GaryThanks for the interesting info about the Black Angus sodbuster, Jack.
Phenomenal pair of knives for you; I always enjoy your Jack/Charlie pairings!

Glad it's all gone OK Jer, and that those shots aren't like they used to beER seemed to be stretched pretty thin, poor things. They didn't have much patience for my merry banter. That never happens.
The rest of the shots are at the infusion center. I'm not sure what goes on there in general, but I think I'll be the least suffering patient there.
So....can we still call you 'Mad Dog'?! 
This one is an Outdoorsman from the Marlboro series. No clue if they ever made it without the Marlboro scales. Yesterday I swapped out the scales for some green Micarta ones I had lying around. Add another layer to the Explorer with a fish scaler and saw, and a small flathead screwdriver/chisel on the backside and you end up with this. The lanyard is a short one so it wasn’t connected to me at the time.Cool photo!
Absolutely. That's how I'll introduce myself at the infusion center this morning, and it's not entirely inapt, because I expect to be mowing the lawn in the midday sun later.Thanks a lot Gary

... Streaking never ends well.Yes, Silver Lake, Red Lake, Blue Lakes, and Caples Lake... all beautiful. I hope they remain that way.
Nothing more classic than a Rosewood Lambsfoot.
I made it to Life. I regret that I didn’t push to get Eagle. But, there were girls cars and music…
Thank you GT. They don't list the natural bone anymore and list the black delrin as discontinued, so I think you're right. They still have some brown jigged bone in stock. I liked the white bone enough that I also bought one of the brown ones. Both of mine are seconds which made them a good buy. Very well built knives. I really like the blade shape.Those AG Russell spearpoint lockback Barlows are pretty sweet, Mike!

Congrats on your new gunstock and Bullet, Steve!

Thanks Greg! So far so good, yesterday we went to the Rainforest Zoo, rode around the mountains and visited two covered bridges, ate late lunch/early dinner at the Old Mill in Pigeon Forge, and finally attended a Country Music show last night. Going to Dollywood today, riding around in the mountains tomorrow (before the rain reaches us) and going to a Motown music show tomorrow night. One day I will take a vacation where you just sit and sip coffee in the morning and beer at night - but not this time! The 6318 has been my only carry so far. OHHave a safe and enjoyable vacation, Bruce; mighty fine collection of knives you're taking with you!
Thank you, my friend.
Looks pretty weak for coffee. Are you sure it’s not tea?Sunday Night: Coffee and Indian River Jack
You noticed that, eh? My Dad~a born rebel and prankster.Boys? Those are clearly men, can’t you see they have mustaches?!
Never was a Boy Scout myself. Instead, we had R.A.’s, which was sort of like the Southern Baptist version of Boy Scouts. I’ve probably had this knife longer than any other. Always makes me think of my dad.
I’m glad you like my Sodbuster!Your big stag clip point looks fantastic by the stony squirrel, Jeff!
Maybe not entirely innocent, but it's complicated. She usually has a list of 4-6 quilt/knitting/fabric stores she wants to visit on the trip out or the trip home. But we started so late on the first day that all but one of her shops were already closed by the time we got to them, and many weren't open yet when we passed them on our race home (still managed to stop at one quilt store on the way home, though).

They have a slick little vacuum device that just sucks the money right out of your pocket. Bet you’ll need a vacation when you get home!
Swiss Army Knives are fun, but with so many choices, where do you stop? You can carry a big one that has everything, but when the day’s over, and you take it out of your pocket, how many things did you use?
Your Laguioles are such slender, elegant knives when open!
(I wish they didn't have such a tall, sharp tang corner sticking out when closed.)
