That is plain KOOL!!

No, Farm & Fleet is a Midwest chain with 47 locations in Wisconsin & N. Illinois. There are 5 in eastern Iowa and 5 more in Michigan.

Then you have Fleet Farm which except for the name is the same thing and they are located here:

This came in yesterday's mail. Did a music favor for a friend's funeral and his wife sent me this 4-dot "Lightning" 6392. It has a great patina and the blades are clean and full. Big boy at 4" and heavily built. Might carry it a while. J.O'.

Nice one Jerry. Another Wharncliff for the stash is never a bad thing!

Maybe I should stop by one of the Farm & Fleet's here in town and see if they have any.

That one sent me looking. Farm Fleet not available ship to home, so went to the zon and have 2 coming. Paid a little more, but oh well........

Beautiful David, simply beautiful.

I got in a few recently. The Case “pot o gold” lucky clover with brilliant green bone with gold filled jigging. Along with the brilliant green bone with black filled jigging. The gold one is one of 100 and the green and black are one of 500.
I also bought a Paul Henckels BMW keychain knife. I miss this old style keychain. My fat remotes for my cars are so big that I can’t get the key rings to separate far enough to take my key fobs off and on without a screwdriver. I think this will work just fine. These were made in Solingen Germany between 1945 and 1955. I use to own a BMW 5 series and miss it dearly so this is nostalgia for me on two levels. The knife blade is surprisingly sharp.

Treefarmer: You bet. Art was a great guy, almost made 90. Wife is 63 and a looker. I'll keep that one in a special place.

Lovely green canoe's Mark!

You may want to consider

one of those keyrings that have 2 separate rings on a short chain that separate in the middle by a little "snap-in" thingy so you could put remotes on one ring and fobs on the other, and when you needed a fob just press the snap and the 2 sides will separate. They're very handy in the winter when you want to go in somewhere but want to leave the car running, you cut a duplicate car key and keep a copy on each ring so you can lock the door behind you! Jus' a suggestion!

That’s a simply gorgeous Puma. Wouldn’t mind having one of those myself.

Thanks Mark, I will check those out. Looking forward to trying this one out first to see if it fits the bill. Reminds me of my first keychain I had back in 1975.

I certainly understand your nostalgia Mark. You can usually find the one I'm referring to on cards on the counter in Service Stations/Gas bars for about $3. last time I saw them.

Love that American Elk...not seen too often (at least not as often as Sambar Stag and other types of antler)...and the covers on your 110 are absolutely gorgeous. You certainly have good reason to be proud. Nice score!

Nice pick up, KTK. Love the big game animals carved on the handle...very unique.

BTW: I used to live in Upstate NY and every time I drove through Naples I always tried to pick up a grape pie (which is where I first discovered them and really the only place I've ever seen them). Been many, many years since I had one, but the memories of that delicious pie have never faded. My mouth is watering right now just thinking about grape pie! Mmmmmmm!!!
