All About Pocket Knives

WB, I know nothing about guitars, but I can see that those are beautiful!

I agre with Brett, those are sweeet WB!

Here is a nail clipper I picked up this weekend, I have about a dozen of these now and just like them because they are old, ornate and made in the USA.

Thanks guys.
Gino, I used to have a pair of those old clippers around here somewhere. They weren't quite as fancy as those, but ornate by most standards. If I come across 'em, i'll get your addy and send 'em to ya. Someone told me once that they would have been part of a set with other pieces that matched. They do make a neat little collectable.

The redbuds are now blooming in Kentucky. Here's one in my back yard. Ahhhhh spring!!!

Trees and bushes are blooming here too. I hope they don't get a nasty surprise. It can easily happen in this neck of the woods.

Beautiful tree, Phil. I'm cultivating and training a small one in my back yard. It's coming along.

But, is that truly a "red-bud"? I know we call them that, but they aren't red, they're lavender.

There's another tree blooming along the Interstates here and they truly have red buds.

Not a botanist.

So what's what?

Still beautiful.

The true reds in this neck of the woods are crabapples. They get to about the size of a small redbud. I noticed the other day that the Dogwoods are startin' to bloom here. It's actually a bit early. Good lookin' Redbud, Phil. Always one of the early signs of spring here too. That and me puttin' new fishin' line on my poles.

That’s beautiful, Phil. .....all that green is making me homesick.

be sure you have plenty of free time over 5,000 pics of knives, guns, bows, airguns, tools, critters, the outdoors, repairs, project sequences and other not so interesting stuff.

I got one question, where do you get mini snappin' turtles? They're all pretty big 'round these parts!

WB

the only thing mini about them is the pizzas the turtles come in all sizes

this lil bugger just bored his last tunnel in my yard

I used to have a black lab X boxer that was a good mole dog. The problem was the 150 foot trench across the yard in the morning.

Oh yeah Kaleb, them things work good on moles!
So my wife has been on the road since last Tuesday, spending my hard earned money on gas and hotel bills.
She and her sister were all over the place lookin for antiques and maybe knives for me.
She comes back with this! What the?? A lock??
Anyway, I think she may have gone round the bend. It works and has the key but really? A lock?

Our wives must breath the same fumes, Perry! Mine went on a road trip like that a couple of years ago and brought me back a China made Lava Lamp.
Oh well, I guess it's the thought that counts.

LMAO! ROTF, LMAO! Sorry for laughin Perry, its just the way you said it.

lmao, I know Gino, it feels better knowin that it happened to you too WB, LMAO!

That's actually a very nice lock. It's exactly like the ones provided by the self storage facility we use.

Difficult to saw, difficult to break.

Put it to good use, preferably somewhere your sweet wife will see it on a regular basis.

You're a very man, a lot smarter than me Charlie. I actually discovered this last night while searchin for them.
Seem to be very sturdy and strong. At the rate I keep buyin knives and other stuff, I may need to rent me storage unit! Thanks Charlie for the info.

You're most welcomed to the info............................, but, please heed the advice, too.

Yes Charlie, after 30 years maybe I can still learn but I doubt it.

Not gonna happen Perry. Maybe if the rules didn't keep changing but it always comes down to "She who owns the gold mine, makes the rules".
