Knives and Spirits

That's cool, Rick. My wife's brother has a drill bit for glass and he makes lighted bottles for display. We have a Tullamore Dew and a Jamieson, I'll have to take some pictures.

Thanks, John. I would love to see those pics when time permits.

I really like the rum; it has a great flavor and mixes well with orange juice (of all things ).

Rum and orange juice.

it turned out to be not too bad.... especially with a spicey rum....

I remembered to take a picture of them last night. One plugs in and the other is battery operated. The Lucky Irish Black Cat came from Ireland.

*edit- I forgot to throw in a knife.

Very cool! Thanks for the pic. I like that he saves the caps. I throw the caps away before I give the bottles to my wife. I hadn’t considered saving the caps but I like it. I’ll start doing that too.

You're welcome! BTW- we (I) supplied the empty bottles.

But of course. How did I not know that?!

I won’t drink any of this until tomorrow night but I just drove a 90 mile round trip to pick this up. It was the only place around here that had it. If it had been much farther, I would have either ordered it online or done without.

It was a pleasant drive. Mostly sunny and about 55 degrees.

Looks refreshing. Have you tried Tin Cup Rye? I found it to be really smooth.

I have not tried Tin Cup Rye yet but I haven’t forgotten your post about it. I saw it today but the Dark Arts Rye (and the “Fatty” beef stick I bought while there) were a bit on the expensive side. As a result, I only bought those two things but Tin Cup is still on my list.

Chattanooga Malted Rye tonight.

what’s smoother Rick, the Rye or the Reate?

I’m gonna have to go with the Reate on that one. Rye tends to have a bit of spice. Sometimes a lot of spice and I like spicy stuff.

I haven’t had a Rye yet that I would consider smooth and that’s what I like about Rye. I am mostly a Bourbon guy but I like all whiskies and Rye is a good change of pace when I’m in the mood for it. Sometimes I like a drink that kicks me right in the ole’ keester.

The Reate on the other hand, will drop shut under the blade’s weight when I push the button lock. Pretty smooth.

Cool knife and the rye sounds nice.


I was doing some coon fingering with some Johnnie Black. Hopefully this makes up for my previous picture without a knife.

Nice layout, John. I like that Elephant Toe.

All is forgiven

Enjoying one of the Barrell Bourbon blends again tonight. The knife is my newest acquisition. A Case 6345 made for the NKCA in 1987 and my brother picked up the plaque for me while vacationing in Memphis.

'Tis the season! The train knife was a Christmas gift from my wife last year.

Thanks, Rick! The eggnog was pretty warming, just what I needed.

Had a couple glasses of wine at a local Winery today. I usually have 2 glasses when we go there. If one or both of them is their 24% alcohol wine, my wife has to drive home. Needless to say, my wife ALWAYS drives home.

It's good to have a DD wife, Rick. If we go to wineries, I'm the DD. But any where else, it's the wife.

This past weekend, we met up with the wife's long time friend and her family at Three Foxes in Delaplane. So I was the DD. They have a great, cozy fireplace there, and the college 21+ kids were getting their kicks rolling down a hill behind the winery. Oh to be 21 again!

I took this picture about an hour and a half ago and I have a few more sips left in this pour. The Smoke Wagon is a brand new bottle that I just opened up tonight.

Something on another forum reminded me of this Elk handled Schatt & Morgan so I pulled it out of storage for this picture. Can’t remember the model number without looking it up on my desktop computer. There was a time not so long ago when I knew it by heart.
