All About Pocket Knives

Howdy folks. Long time, no see. I have a new knife that I want to carry, because it was a gift from a good friend. It is a Moore Maker trapper, with pretty white bone scales. The problem is the edge. It is as dull as a putty knife and no matter what I do I can't seem to get an edge on it at all. Now...

Like Mumbleypeg, I was stopped at a Fort Worth football stadium before a high school ball game. I had to take my Case trapper back to the truck I drove. Now, that posed a problem for me. You see, I am a football coach, and my job in the press box each Friday night is to log and chart offensive forma...

Oh no!!

Looks like something I would do ...

Laffin cuz it's funny but crying cuz it's so true

She is awesome! Very Bonnie Raitt-ish but in a good, non-imitating sort of way. If that makes any sense.

Jethro all of these songs and artists you are sharing are fantastic. Much better than the junk I hear on the radio these days.

I had a cousin who got carted off to North Carolina when she was married in college and when they came back to visit her husband brought back a dulcimer. He played some old timey songs like these. He wound up going to numerous festivals over the next few years and unfortunately some of the women tho...

Now I wanna go home and watch "A River Runs Through It."

Flat out awesome!

Well, I love them NOW, TJ! It's like one of those situations where you say to yourself, 'Where have they been all my life, and how come nobody told me about them before now???'

Anyway ...

Just stumbled across Emmylou Harris, Red Dirt Girl. awesome song.

about two dozen versions on youtube, but one of the most moving is the illustrated, or animated one.

Awesome video. That kid was not the only one having to wipe his eyes.

I sent that link to our history department chairman.

I think I remember reading a Reader's Digest Condensed version of his book. Amazing that he went through that and survived.

Great topic, great stories. What do I do for my bread and beans? First of all, let's talk about my unpaid job: Well, now, I started out working in the garden with Mama and Granny when I was just a little shaver. Then I started working with Daddy and Papa down at the cattle lots. Pretty soon I was a ...

Howdy, boys. How're y'all?

Strong black coffee in a thermos to go ... and some HotPockets for breakfast ... I really gotta get up earlier ...

Howdy, Y'all ...

Here I am with a few of my female admirers.

Prayers and best wishes sent your way.

Good morning, gentleman. Thankful for a thermos full of strong black coffee as I settle in at my desk for the day.

Yep I see the two 93s now and the one 97. These doggone bifocals! ::dang:: :oops: I almost made the same mistake once when I was in the market for a 97 for myself. Luckily the owner of the pawn shop was kind enough to inform me that I did NOT have a 97 in my hands but a 93. Even more luckily he had ...

I cannot begin to describe the jealousy, envy, greed, avarice and all-around case of the "I-want-em and I gotta have em" that that collection of guns just gave me. ::drool:: ::drool:: ::drool:: ::drool:: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: ::drool:: ::drool:: ::drool:: ::drool:: ::dang:: ::dan...
