All About Pocket Knives

"Shucks"... this is kind of the perfect place to put this (it's also my avatar). When the harvest and knife become one! These are an epoxy (raffir) handle with corn husk inside.

Peach, banana peppers, strange looking cucumbers,cherry tomatoes and some odd but tasty tomaters and a fine little paring knife. Life is delicious.

Interesting corn husk handles, Corey.

Homer - just looking at that harvest makes me hungry! Nice knife, too.

I was out in the garden gathering a few things this afternoon. Pears, Rosemary, Sage, Basil, and Onion. Once again I carried my trusty GEC.

Mel you have about the fanciest harvest knife I have seen. A grinling no less. Wow!!!!!

WOW!! I just took a look at those knives on a larger screen. Beautiful!!!

Thanks Cudgee and Steve. Definitely some of my favorites.

Boline or Witches blade knife: Made by retired NASA rocket scientist - Dr. Ray Rantanen - This knife is good for gathing herbs , cutting weeds , and defense ! Dr. Ray quenches horseshoe and railroad spike knives in water , salt , and liquid soap. The blade screams during faster cooling and the carbon is trapped in the metal. Results in a stronger , better edge holding blade.

Fresh and HOT!!

Nice looking jalapenos Steve...I have found the spey blade works great at removing the veins and seeds from chili peppers! Especially the long spey on a trapper

Thanks Mike. May have to try that.
These will get sliced and pickled, leaving the seeds in.
Gotta have the heat!!

Nice peppers and knife, Steve. I bet those peppers have plenty of heat when you eat one.

Onearm - that is quite a unique knife you have there. When I look at that knife I think it would be just right for climbing one of my oaks on the winter solstice and gathering some mistletoe.

This looks like a harvest knife to me !

Thanks. I'll eat jalapenos straight out of the jar. Straight off the plant is another story! HOO-BOY!! THEY ARE HOTTTTT!!!



Love 'em!

Harvested some wild grapes (aka muscadines) today with the boys!!

I have. Love it!! Not like, bourbon love, but you know....

There is winery in my area that makes muscadine wine, Perdido Vineyards. I have tried a couple of their wines and found them quite good. Though to be honest I am not a wine connoisseur: beer and bourbon are more my favorites.

When I was a kid my mother would make a few bottles of muscadine wine every year. She only used it for cooking, mostly on fruitcakes. She used Log Cabin Syrup bottles for the wine, and to be honest, I think that by my standards today it was not very good wine. It sure made a fruitcake moist!

A Case 47 SS in Amber bone, along with fresh canned Jalapenos.

Serrano peppers.

Dragons tongue Bush beans, and pattypan squash. Also a few Mexican Midget cherry tomatoes!

Almost

SAK and a Peach!
