    Soak a piece of toast in bacon grease. Lots of it. Grandmas old remedy. Worked good on her Chihuahua, Lol. Poor dog. “That’ll clean you out” she’d say.

    Probably keeping them. What exactly, EXACTLY are you looking for? Boxes can be found later. Just remove the passengers seat for now. Lol. I’ll look for you a Trailer in my spare time. Not that I have any spare time. Kinda like extra money. I just like trying to find stuff for sale. Note: Not liable for final purchase decisions, including any complications like the “ Craigslist Killer”

    Ok it’s corned beef time again. Had to get another brisket, daughters coming over to swap out vehicles.

    Serious and for discussion to gain/impartknowledge...
    Years ago; and old walking postman in our town, whittled as he made his rounds. At some point (me less than 18, as still lived with family) I was talking with him about his whittling, his knife and sharpening. He whittled/carved out of pieces of cedar, so not tough cutting. Interesting point here is how he said to stroke the knife as you honed.
    1. Hold the knife in right hand, twist wrist clockwise, press down to/on the stone and push away from you. (Angle of contact another subject.)
    2. Come back, twist counter clockwise, and push away BUT... with the knife crossing the stone at the reverse angle. Like slicing off a top layer of the stone.
    Trying to convey his method of obtaining his finished blade definition he claimed to cut better, last longer.
    Supposedly; under magnification, the actual edge would appear as minute teeth on a handsaw. All slanted the same contact direction.
    Like you held a piece of saw blade and raked the teeth away from you. I have tried it at times and saw no gain, but never whittled 8 hours a day either.
    What do you think of his concept?

    Y'all talking bout this knife that is cluttering my display on every site? Wide curvy blade; pockmarked finish and a forefinger hole in the rear of the blade.
    Would post a pic, but afraid it would infect every viewers computer. Tenacious ad..
