Nice GAW Charlie. Some ideas for you.

Backslide Bone
Busted Rump Bone
Grinder Cut Bone
Pulp Bone
 
Thanks for the opportunity! Not sure what my currents posts are here in traditionals but I am here nearly every day! Sure feels like home, even as just an observer.

What about these? I do apologize of any were mentioned prior.

Shin sawn bone
Trash bone
Backwoods bone
Last chance bone
Po'boy bone

Thanks for the opportunity!
 
We have a winner!!
After reading through them several times, and agonizing with various family members and fellow BF denizens, I have decided to go with XBXB's suggestion in post #81, rag bone. I added a second G to give the name some symmetry, and harken to an old-time song (more later*).
So, Ragg Bone it is, (although, it was hard to resist Boney McBoneface!!)!!:D
Thanks one and all for the Ragg Bone pictures!:thumbup:
:)

*can you guess the old-time song??:D
 
Well, congrats to XBXB!!

Now we are all waiting earnestly for the date when these are going to start hitting our favorite dealers so the rest of us can buy one :D :D Any news Charlie?

I like "Ragg Bone", the spelling will make people wonder for decades where the name came from.

But the name really is perfect as most of our rags are garments that could have been thrown out for their imperfections but instead are used for a very utilitarian purpose. Looking around my garage I could make the argument that some pieces of cloth were FAR MORE useful in their role as a rag than their role as a garment!

Great job XBXB! Great choice Charlie!
 
BYCRACKYBONE <<<<<<<< I have one just like the one pictured & it is retired because a scale somehow got a crack in the left scale all the way
through ~~ so I figured ""BYCRACKYBONE"" ~~~~ well it fits..!*****
 
Hey Wolf-man! Read the original post (#1)! Cool name though!
 
Charlie, I was actually thinking ragtime girls, something along those lines. Google helped. Youtube proved it to be a catchy tune as well. I'm 32, so yes just as young as you! I enjoy the soup variants. Keep them coming and I'll maybe be able to find one in the future. Rage bone rolls nicely off the tongue.

Congratulations to the winner! This was a really neat giveaway Charlie.

I'm WAY out of the loop on this one! Got some catching up to do! :D

When I was a boy, Britain was still a poor country recovering from World War 2, and nothing was wasted. Bones went in the soup pot or fed the dog, and the gnarliest old bones went to the rag and bone man. The stretched-out cry of “raganbohhne” was a familiar cry in every British town and city, called out at regular intervals by old men in flat caps and dirty coats, pushing hand-carts or riding on the seat of a horse-drawn trap. Kids would hear the cry of the rag ‘n’ bone man, and come running out of their houses carrying old clothes and broken pans, jam-jars, or a sack of old bones, anything they could trade the old man for a couple of balloons, which were the ragman’s standard currency. At the end of his round (for there were many competing rag ‘n’ bone men), the old man would drag his barrow back to the rag-yard, where everything was sorted out. Rags would be sorted out into piles, scrap metal also, and the bones went into a pile, in an old tea-chest perhaps, to be sold to the glue-man when there was sufficient quantity. As a kid, I went in a rag-yard a few times, and it felt like going back a hundred years. The rag ‘n’ bone man was a common feature in English jokes, and even in one long-running and much-loved comedy series ‘Steptoe & Son’

:cool:;)

Whooooo Hooooo!!! I just got home from work this morning and much to my surprise ----- Look what happened!!! So thank you all soo much and Charlie you are always so generous. Just to let you know I have not purchased a knife for 3 yrs. My 40 yr. old son became ill and my wife and I have been caring for him during this period of time and money has been tight. It's hard to justify purchasing a knife when you are spending dollars caring for someone you love. So words can't express how happy I am and so very grateful for this knife. Thank you Thank you very much. To celebrate lets all listen to the Andrew Sisters sing Alexander's Rag Time Band. Whoo Hoo!!!!
Charlie I will PM you. Thanks again.

Sounds like you could do with a break Jim, hope your son is on the mend soon :thumbup: I listen to the Bessie Smith version regularly, it always reminds me of my favourite (long-deceased) Uncle Alec, who gave me first knife :) :thumbup:
