I've had this NYK Co. jack for a while but I don't think I've posted it before. It's in the Biddle Hardware catalog.

That would be a cool pattern for GEC to revisit. Better than farting around with gimmicky stuff like a beard comb.

I was just thinking along the same lines! I had a Sperry and Alexander that was similar that I regret not keeping and using.

As to political knives and I have probably already mentioned this, I bought a pearl handled serpentine candle end lobster iff Ebay that was almost mint and clearly etched HERBERT HOOVER on the main blade.

I was the only bidder, got it cheap and sold it high.

Camillus, as I recall.
