What will really be scary is if Q finds Vicent Price when he goes to return the Idol. We need to stop it’s showing our age. That is heavy and not humorous at all.

Steve, I know when I look at recent pictures of myself, ... I can see that I do in fact, look a little bit older... But I still feel that I have a few good years left .... before I completely turn into dust...

Gettin' old ain't for sissies. I used to hate putting my pants on in a pup-tent because I had to do it sitting down. Now sit down to put my pants on because I fall over when I try it standing up.

Giving up my age - I went to see Vincent Price in the original House On Haunted Hill move at a drive-in. I had nightmares for a long time after that of the scene where the old hag floats down the hall. It was a double feature with Caltiki the Immortal Monster. FYI GSP, that was at the Indian Head Drive-in in Phoenix.

... the Indian Head Drive-in in Phoenix...? You must have taken the 'ol wagon or buckboard to the theater back then in those times Sas... I think they call them "moving-pictures" back in the day.....

Sanibel shells and Moki Silver Feather. I’m headed back there in a few weeks and will hopefully bring back some new examples, shells not knives.

Another fond memory, they used to have "Dollar A Carload" nights. My Dad would borrow my Granddad's 1953 Chevy pick-up and get every kid in the neighborhood in or on that truck and pay one dollar to get us into the movies. The two drive-ins I remember that did that were the Indian Head and the Silver Dollar. Those were some great times, kids today have no idea what they missed sitting under the stars watching a huge screen instead of playing a video game on a screen the size of a post card.

Just so I don't get accused of hijacking the thread with my reminiscing here are a couple of shots from the archive in keeping with the subject.

My favorite light, bright overcast. -1/3 stop exposure

Great pics and knives, Fingers and Charlie!

Sas.... That must have been a heck of a trick fitting everybody into the back of a pickup truck ... Considering how big y'all are, even if 'en you was kids*....

Nice shots Fingers. The light worked well for you. I like the dandelions too.

A Parker Little Bandit which is a smaller (like) version of a Case clasp knife and a Hubertus lockback

I don’t know whether I got lucky or Frost has an undeserved bad reputation because this lockback is a fine pocketknife

I was the one who started the high jacking of the thread and no pictures did I post.
Yesterday morning I was laughing about the high jacking and opened a new bag of coffee. Needless to say I now have a picture for the thread. I definitely would not call it photography. A snap shot and possibly stupidity. Take a good look at the bag of coffee I opened. I didn’t really need a knife if I would have opened the correct side of the bag. But then I would have truly highjacked the thread.
ENJOY
Steve

Thank you for making me laugh.

Giving The Wife the gift of a sharp edge on her kitchen knives this Mother’s Day morning.

Nice shots Fingers, Steve & Coley

T-Dog, I really like that turquoise lock back with the colorful inlays. Beauuuuutay!!!

Neighbors trimmed some coconut palms yesterday and the trimmings provided the setting for my Case 107W pic today.

There are a lot of cool photos on this page. Very nice to see, fellows.
Here are a couple of photos of Schrade 65th Anniversary knives from 2011. This year would be the 80th Anniversary. I was doing some stuff in my herb garden and decided to do a photo with elements evoking time and remembrance.
