Day 7 Looks like an early fall. Lots of rain here and cooler. How about an outdoor photo? Best wishes. G [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ]
Day 6The Imperial Camper Knife didn't do a bad job cutting the cigar in spite of me.(Image removed from quote.)

Day 6: Two mail-calls. The Lledo RNLB Garside (Tyne-class Lifeboat) is tough to find in the States, though a few were brought back as tourist trinkets. I paid $2 shipped for this one off eBay from an eBay seller in CO. I think Garside was the debut. It was produced for Kimberly-Clark (who if I recall, paid for the boat to be built) on behalf of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution. The box still has a RNLI price tag of GBP 2.50. Over 2-3 years, Lledo did most of the Tyne-class--most of the time, with an ad for the sponsor of the boat on the plinth.

A neighbor of mine called on his way out from my place, saying he found a package with my name on it--a quarter-mile from my place on an old farm near no address whatsoever. We suspect the owners (my estranged Dad and his second wife I might add) of that property (who without our permission, blocked the driveway on our property with a gate) complained because the UPS guy recently started going through that gate to leave packages on my porch. I've tried to get someone at UPS to get to the bottom of this issue, but so far, nothing's worked. That package contained some tools I ordered from Caterpillar--drop-shipped through our local dealer. No shipping notification or phone call and I actually checked my CAT account this morning--and it was still saying "processing"--makes me wonder if UPS picked it up on the way out--they're on the same road as the CAT dealer. Most are rebranded Snap-On, though it appeaers the 213-1983 (6-inch) are actually rebranded Channellock (with exclusive black grips).

If Loop Cutter had the deluxe three layer stainless steel model instead of the single, he would have had some other tools on his Sak-a-like. Here are the excellent scissors on mine. This is the usual state of them after you fold them up. No, they won't cut paper, and the spring has sprung whatever flex it once possessed. The blade is marked Stainless, and it might be. The rest of the implements have rust on them. The stainless steel scales with the black plastic nubs look just fine. I have cut up some apples with it and a few oranges.

That saw blade reminds me a lot of the Signal saw. That brew scene looks so good! ☕☕
~~Touching up the edge on the Spyderco Sharpmaker. I've heard some people prefer a "rougher" edge (lower grit) on their knives, saying it'll keep longer. I don't believe everything I read on the internet, but if y'awl tell me that's how it works I'll buy it. [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ]
DAY4: Had sadly nothing to do where I would had need to use an Multifunktional Pocket Knife sadly, so maybe no Picture today.., was a lacy Day anyway, I went in the Garden to watch the Bees flying out an in there Hive, check how bad the Situation on the Asian Hornets really is: I saw maybe 2 to 3 European Hornets (you know these giant but quite chilled Wasps , these sound quite dangerous, but they are actually quite kind, as long you are not an Wasp or an Bee.. , im still a bit confused: In the USA there are the Yellow Jackets, are these Hornets or Wasps? They are a lot more aggressive there,I never had any issues whit them in Europe, but there is now this new Asian Hornet which is a thread for the European Insect because its quite invasive and spread quite fast, and they are an big issue ..
