Day 27

Tightened another pair of sunglasses. More knife-mail opening...

Also, I'm making a giveaway too:
The prize is *something* that I've added a little touch to.
The winner is *someone* who participated in this challenge.
The package already left this morning. It will probably arrive a few days after this challenge ends.
I ask that the winner post about it here but only when he or she receives the package.
I'm not kidding :D

Cool pic Syem! :like: :tu: :tu:

It will be fun to see who gets the surprise package. :cheers:

Day 28

Here goes my first submission in the "longer Swiss blades" category.

Here's an officer dagger 1943 model (with sub-officer "lanyard") from Elsener.
These are blunt pieces meant as "parade gear" (or whatever that's called)



Quite often the price of these is defined by the type of lanyard (the Officer's lanyard making the piece way more expensive) and the condition of the lanyard. Mine being a sub-Officer's lanyard in not-so-great condition, the price was reasonable :D I've seen some officer lanyards (without any dagger) in very good condition go for more than I paid the whole thing xD

Bought myself a brushed aluminum PTC since I have a small PTC collection, maybe 5, but I didn't have this style.

Good effort with the scale swap there FoBo. Impressive   :hatsoff:

I don't have any spinners, and yes I could post a watch or two, but I'm certainly guilty of collecting Fisher Bullet pens. They're very good for fiddle/distraction factor in meetings.

Day 28.

To bad most of my A&W Root Beer mugs are in storage. Here's one that I haven't been able to put a date on yet. I believe it's from the late 50's early 60's.

Jeep the SAK of the auto world or is it SAK the Jeep of the Knife world?

This stainless steel spinner is considered by some to have started the spinning revolution, it's called a Torqbar.

Nice ones GS!  A friend of mine told me about a root beer freeze.  I'd never heard of it.  It starts off as a float and then they blend it, very tasty!  :tu:
