Made my day!

Post by upnorth »

Today it was a 35 minute drive to the P.O, each way. But it was worth it!! One from Ebay, and a Barlow "off the Wall", the last one this fellow had. I bought about 6 or 7 from him, when I had the money.
Two beauties, unmolested by time. Simple patterns, but nicely designed. I feel lucky.

WTG Charlie, nice PO trip Plunder fer shure !
I found some USA Schrades after stopping in
a store about 25 miles away on Friday.
Didn't have much money with me, so I thought about it overnight.
Drove back up there Saturday a.m. to pick them up.
I'm not sure which 'day was made' perxactly, but one of them was!

One each 705UH 706UH both with simulated wood box and outer sleeve.
One 93OT Jack in plastic bag only-no box. ::ds::
