I Carried
this partially home made knife(The handle is hand pounded copper) for a whole week, used it to cut candy and biscuit packaging,
whittle emergency wooden door stops, peel and cut apples in half, cut
meat, potatoes and carrots for a lazy man's stew, cut and sliced onions,
tomatoes and other veggies for food prep, worked indoors and outdoors,
got soaked in pouring rain during one of my motorcycle rides going home,
and after the day and work is done all i
have to do is wash it in warm soapy water to remove dried fruit juices
and food particles, give it a good shake, a thorough wipe down a drop of
oil at the pivot and she is back for more action. I kinda noticed also
how it patina'd with everyday handling and use. Now she has that
character that a lot of people force on her, mine is going slow and
steady and has aged with everyday use. Thomas D Moore was right carry and use your knife like no other.
