All About Pocket Knives

bladecollector. I was referring to the frog's taste in mice. Certainly not to your interests. When I was in grade school my mother gave me a book on ornithology it began my life long interest in birds. We all develop different interests in different things sometimes not even fully understanding why we find something of interest.

My main encounter with frogs was in first-year highschool. We had to go to a nearby swamp, collect a frog and bring it to science class where we dissected it. After opening up the frog, it's heart stopped beating. I began gently pushing on it and, lo and behold, it resumed beating. Sewed back up he continued to live. But there was a major problem. One of his legs stood straight out at about a 60 degree angle. Probably somewhere along the way a nerve was cut or damaged. I found the poor frog a very interesting subject but realized even then that I would not become a surgeon.

You nailed that one Ken.
He is the most high strung dog I've ever had.
He must burn 10,000 calories a day.

My niece’s family had a Jack Russell. That dog never stopped from sunup to sundown. They live in the country on a farm and the dog was always chasing squirrels, catching mice, rats, frogs and snakes. It was bitten several times by cottonmouths but it never learned to leave them alone. We used to laugh because at the same time they also had a Labrador Retriever that was the total opposite. Completely laid back - slept on the porch all day.

Mark, It's my daughter and my favorite pattern.
We said once we hit 50 barlows we would stop with them.
Almost 200 now and still going. Of course, we have hundreds of other knives also, but there is just something about the barlow.

Fella, thanks for the kind words regarding our pets.

Always watching dad...

Pretty pup, Ryan

Thanks Steve

Your beautiful dog looks like it may be an Irish Setter. But the lighting may be deceiving me.

Beautiful dog.

Beautiful Irish Setter. I had one for a brief time when I was a teenager. I loved that girl.

Thanks guys !

She’s my baby… You should be able to claim your pets as dependents… Had her at the vet today for her shots and got 4 flea and tick pills—$200, But she’s worth it…I don’t like giving her those pills but last year everything else quit working —I mean everything… The expensive drops, the cheap drops, the Soresto collars— everything… It’s like the fleas and ticks around here became immune to everything..I use a little food grade diatomaceous earth on her dog bed and a little on her chair and I’ll even rub a little bit on her belly and hind quarters but I don’t like doing that too often because it dries her skin out…she is an Irish setter ssk..

My mom and her boyfriend with my Layla.. The ones where she is sitting on the couch with Tom she is watching me cook from the living room at my sister’s house.. she sat there for three hours watching me because she knows she’s not allowed in the kitchen when I’m cooking! Anyway – – I’m getting a collage made of these 4 pictures and having it framed to give them as a gift… They love and spoil her as much as I do

Some great pics, Ryan.
They'll make a beautiful gift.

Thanks my friend!

They are indeed great pictures. Your dog is too beautiful for words.

Thank you QS! I appreciate that.. she’s my sidekick...
