TOPDOG is a champion cage rattler, Marco! That's why we like him!

Who me?

Yes you!!! The way you're going, Dog, you might want to get use to that view, and I bet you look just like that guy in the cage, sinister!
I hope you know I'm teasing, pal, it's just that some days you're the windshield some days you're the bug, and it seems today you're the bug! I love it too, keeps the heat off me!

Thanks Marco.... You left me out there all squashed and smushed, while you were skating along free 'n clear in the background....

I have sworn off knives for today.... Going to My Granite Curling Stones for comfort today....

I will also get stoned today for comfort

I also have these nearby today. A Sharp 175 Barlow and an exotic wood Marimba.

I am ALREADY stoned for the day!
What in the world are you doing with curling stones in the desert, Dog, playing "Curling at the Cactus"?
You might could be deeply weird, my friend!

Great knife, TWKG, is the "Marimba" the wooden box thing the knife is sitting on, and if so what does it do?

Well, I have been very busy of late and fasting the forum for a short time ... just checked in and see everything is normal here!
Kerry, Mark, T-Dog, and TWKG ... even in the desert, this thread is stone cold comforting!

Yeah it's the wood thing. It's also known as a thumb piano.The metal spindles are like keys. They stick out over a sounding hole. I salvaged it one time thinking it might make a nice instrument for my kids, but I discovered that it's a bona-fide hand made grown up instrument. I'm as musical as a worn out sharpening stone, but I still find even my simple tunes to be relaxing because the rich melodic tones it makes sound really pleasant.

Everyone is probably getting sick of me posting this knife I think this is the 3rd thread I’ve posted it on in the last week
But perfectly stated she is my comfort knife
Weird but just feel better when she’s around

Very nice TWKG*

*Note: I once dated a Marimba, back when I was staying down in Brazil, oh... she was exotic and sweet!

Good to hear from you CxIII ... I heard on the news today it was 14 degrees in Tennesse, so I'm glad to hear that it is warming up out there where you is ....
Well, I was out quail hunting a day or two ago and it was 83 degrees out here in the desert ....And, speaking of heat... The Curling Stones, when left out in the sun, can absorb a lot of heat, so you have to be careful handling them ....

Marco, you probably don't know much about the exciting and fast paced sport of Curling, , let me just say that when you want to meet hot chicks in top physical form .... you head to the ice rink and bust-out your Olympic grade Granite Curling Stones... and let the games begin!

Well, I never dated a Kalimba, but, I'm still single and relatively young (on this site at least ) and I'm holding out that there is still some hope left!!!

Well get back to that curling rink and find yourself a hotty with a body. But curling a stone is child's play. A lady likes a man that can handle that broom

Great point TWKG! That is what people who don't study the finer points of Curling don't understand, where you win the Gold is in the sweeping! ... And... chicks that Curl, are smoking hot!*

Hey buddy, I hope you don't feel I was insulting your Kalimba, I just didn't know what else to describe it as. And I am familiar with it, not first-hand, but I've seen them before and didn't know their name then either. Now I know what to call a thumb piano when I see one again! I'm certain they make a very nice sound, so keep-on enjoying yours!

I for one am not tired of viewing your knife, Gino, a beautiful folder like that deserves lots of coverage!
It sounds like you are definitely in the "Comfort Knife" spirit when simply being around your knife makes you feel good. That's the theme of this entire thread, so I'm glad you caught it. Read my original post on page 1 for a description of what I consider knives that bring me comfort, you'll read all about yourself. I don't think it's weird personally, nor do 141 some pages of others who think the same, but I know what you meant!

In honor of 141 pages of pure comfort on the CKT, I am posting my F.B.C.K. today, with the 41-serial number This is one of my "go to" C.K.

Living in Canada, how could I possibly know anything about the slow and boring sport of curling, Dog, you must be slipping buddy, it's only our national sport!
So you're telling me you have curling stones to heat-up in the desert sun, to do what, slip them under your mattress to stay warm like a Dutch Oven?
And wouldn't it be easier to borrow someone's professional curling jacket or T-shirt instead of lugging heavy stones all the way to the rink to impress chicks? I was never very good at picking up girls, and now that I'm more seasoned don't have any desire to do so, all the more for you young dudes!
I sure hope you get that I'm yanking your chain, Dog, everything you said makes sense in one way or another!

Marco, I think we can agree on one thing fo' sure .... Chicks that Curl ... are smoking hot!! ( typically speaking, that is... )

Absolutely, Dog, there definitely are some hotties that like to curl, no question about that!

Back in the day I enjoyed curling up with a hottie.
Now days it's all about pocket knives and memories
