I don't know where the "penny" part came from. Probably intended to indicate a smaller "lap dog" size. I just heard that term when I was a kid growing up.


This is the USMC Tartan. Properly registered and everything. Betcha didn't know we have our own tartan.

Nice pick up on the tools and 'yapa'. Feisty is a phrase I grew up with so the noun became an adjective and well describes the behavior.

Jerryd what is your kilt size?

When a Marine wears a kilt, the phrase "pitching a tent" can have two very different meanings...

My size? That's kind of personal but just for you, it's Extra They Don't Make 'Em That Big.

Thanks Dogleg and Wade; it's been staying with me as an EDC since it arrived. OH

Here's some new stuff I found in the mail basket today.

Kissing Crane I believe Floyd.
That OLD CUTLER I believe is made by Bob Paolantonio (rest his soul) of Colonial fame.

Thanks Scott, Kissing Crane would have been my last guess.

Forgot to mention I got some new display cases. One to finish up my Empires, One for my Northwoods and 2 for my GEC's.

Thanks Paul and Jerry . They are quite nice.

Congratulations Greg that quite a score! Nice display cases as well!

Really nice Greg, display cases and the tested xx!!!

Threw the bait out there and just waited for the bite. "I believe I did find these...…" I believe you got ahold of the one leg I have that already had not been pulled. Congratulations and thanks for sharing with us poor gullible masses.

AH HAH!!

Now I remember. There's the culprit. Greg, thank you very much for the display cases. They're not only beautiful, they're as slick as a greasy door knob. I really appreciate them. I've thought so much about what to put in them, my brain hurts. Don't worry, I'll decide who has the honor. I'm leaning towards GECs in one and Camillus 72s & clones in the other.

You are most welcome Jerryd. I knew as many of those Mini-trappers as you 've been showing off Something would be overflowing somewhere.

You've already seen it Greg but for everyone else, I decided to fill one with my stag GECs. They fill it quite nicely. I may do some adjustments and rearrangements later but for now, this is what it is. I'm thinking Case Mini-Trappers in the other one but haven't done anything about it yet. Please excuse the crappy cell phone picture. Edit: An even worse crappy cell phone picture but tomorrow's another day. I'll get better pics then.
