Here's a nice "old" Southington pen I'll be packing today.

Another looker from your fine collection, Joe!

Kev,

Can you describe exactly what it is to feel like an old Barlow? I usually feel like
a broken down 1960 Ford pickup truck. And, you don't want me to tell you what
that feels like!

Oh, nice knife BTW. She's a beaut!

Kerry I resemble that remark about the old Ford truck! My very first vehicle was a 1969 Ford 3/4 ton 2 tone green over white truck. Man, I loved that truck (when I could get it started)! That truck and a bottle of Strawberry Boons Farm Wine and my gal pal at the time. So I guess that old Keen Kutter represents that old Ford truck in my memories. At our age now, sometimes I feel like my old Pinto!! Haha.

We have a table for 3 reserved, Ike. I'm sure they could add an extra chair.

Thanks, and awesome Stockman.

Floyd, yes it was a wonderful value at $2.

Redrider, no, it was a gift to myself years ago.

Simmons Hardware Co? I think. Of course I got cataracts and the picture is fuzzy, but that's what it looks like to me.
