After seeing the pictures, I have two questions. What is the significance of "Uncle Tom" on the spoon? And what is the knife with the Blue Grass Tools logo? (Any knife having anything to do with Bluegrass is of interest to me.)

I like the family collection idea. Great pictures of a great collection, too!

I'm getting close to the end of my pictures now. ::nod:: What started out as "a few pictures" this morning turned into a 3-hr Photo Shoot. It was a lot of fun for me & the time just flew by. I actually had to force myself to stop taking pictures. ::shrug:: :lol:

I call these pictures of knife sculptures. ::nod:: My daughter said "That's not art! That's just caos!" :lol:

She has so much to learn about beauty! ::nod:: :lol:

Uncle Tom or "Onkel Tom" was my "Nick-Name" when I worked 14 years in a Bosch factory. ::tu::

The Blue Grass knife is a Böker pen knife in very good condition. I like it but I could part with it if someone really wanted it for their collection. :wink: ::tu:: :D

AWESOME creativity, Tom. ::tu:: I've got some of those tiny barrel magnets; however, my simple stands don't come close to your ingenuity and display. All I did was drill a hole in wood pieces and tapped in some magnets and called it good. ::facepalm:: Now you've got me thinking in a competitive mindset. :mrgreen:

Nice collection, too. ::tu::
