Forty Rod SASS 3935

Thanks. I'll give them a try. I just bought this knife at a gun show for $60.00. Not expensive but stag scale side lever locks are as scarce anymore as eyebrows on eggs. I have two others that are okay but only have 2 3/4" blades....and I have a bunch of stilettos with sliding safeties (which is like not having a safety at all.)

We have ravens and grackles all over this valley. None are as fun as Bob's buddy, though. Nor as fun as Buddy's Bob. either.

As the title line above says, this is an old timey style knife. The spring is a piece of round spring steel wire some 2 3/4" long. The end of the wire (butt end) is held in place by a brass "rivet" that goes though the scales and body from side to side. I can see what needs to be done, but haven't the tools or skills to get it done.

Maybe....if one likes watermelon, which I don't particularly.

I'm not crazy about stag grips but this sixgun is just begging for some. Cimarron's custom shop = out of stock. Anyone else make good grips that don't look like they belong on a Roy rogers or Gene Autry toy cap gun? Real or faux that won't cost as much a college education and fit like they are supposed to?

I have finally found a side lever lock knife to replace one that I'm afraid I threw away by accident. It has one problem: the blade doesn't present very fast, The spring is a wire-like piece and I am wondering if anyone can put a bit more bend in it make it open faster. Suggestions?

Simple fix: add a room to the house with more doors.

Very clever and decorative. I may do something like that for my next .....Oh, like Hell I will.

Ain't that what I suggested? Huh? Well, ain't it?

Well, it does that well enough. Thanks.

Weights on both ends? Are there different weights available?

I never thought of him as much of an actor. Well, he wasn't bad as Fonzie, but......! I found An American Christmas Carol and checked it out just to satisfy my curiosity. THAT IS GREAT MOVIE! Winkler plays a man from his mid 20s to maybe 70 and does a very good job. The acting, scenes, dialog, and everything else is letter perfect. I'll probably check it out again for the holidays. Y'all might enjoy it, too.

Is any of that hardware hooked up to steam or water or are all of the inert...or some of each?

Having a loyal pet is a good thing. I'm glad your raven found one. 😛

Well, it looks like a bunch of folks are gonna spend their butter and egg money pretty soon. I'm happy for y'all.
