A fine peck of peppers there!

Ceiling tiles have been going up in my living room. The call of duty was answered by the Buck 112 (opening caulk tubes, cutting the tiles) and my new Ka-Bar (cutting the plastic wrap off bundles of tiles). In the second photo, the Buck is parallel to an edge I cut with it.

1978 Cases are of great interest to me. Naturally, I'd like to see more pictures! The tomato looks pretty dang good, too.

Dan, the tomato was very good. I don’t have any really good pics, but here’s a bad one from my living room. It came to me all pristine, but after packing and using for a few years it now has patina and some spots, but i still think she’s purty. It was my first 047, and got me hooked on the pattern. I don’t know what’s wrong with me but it seems all my favorite patterns are discontinued!

If I might be so bold, why does ‘78 mash your buttons?

You lucky dog. I was board in 76 and CASE knives from 76 are a lot harder to find!

My little brother was born in September of 78.

Bouncing Betty (refer to the gardening thread for details) had a bunch of weeds and some roll bale twine wrapped around the tines. I couldn't bring myself to use my Hinderer, so my RR Ladyleg rose into action. I had just used a pull-through sharpener to touch it up and the edge lasted just long enough to get the job done. Lots of mud and dirt wrapped in with the weeds, but it worked!

A "before" and "after" shot, boy was that stuff really wrapped tightly in there, almost like sisal rope with dirt and some decaying plant matter.

A tree in the neighboring yard has branches that periodically encroach onto my driveway. I needed little more excuse to break out the Victorinox SwissChamp! Maybe I need to find a serviceable hawkbill, too.

I did just that.

Today I used one of my Marlin Spikes to undo a very tight knot in some 3/4" flat nylon straps. I started picking up these nylon straps while I was working, when material was delivered to a job site, I would pick up the straps and use the again on the job or on the farm. It's amazing the strength of the 3/4" straps. I keep one on the zero-turn so if I get in a too slick spot, all I need to do is hook it to the trailer ball on the golf cart and a little tug will pull it to high ground. The other day I was towing the mower on the trailer with the golf cart when we experienced an electrical problem with the cart, (too many amps drawn pulling the trailer through a mud hole or two). Got a tractor and pulled the cart and trailer back to the barn with two pieces of the nylon in the hitch along with a chain. I had tied a unintentional slip knot and it got so tight, I found out how well a Marlin Spike will undo a mess.

It took several minutes but I got 'er done!

: Camillus used to undo similar knots unintentional knots.
