  1. Have you seen Quigley Down Under? Granted much of the gun errors are due to the change in writers deciding to back the date from the 1880's to the 1860's.

     

     

    Actually the mid seventies wasn't it? Anyway I doubt the Aussies had caught up to Sam's new cartridge guns by then. Americans didn't immediately embrace them either.

  2. Yul, I learned pretty quick not to stuff several matches in my jeans pocket....they tend to rub together and well...!!!! :blink:

     

    Cat, you might look through that long list of Diamond matches...they might have some hot as they used to be.

  3. Years ago in one of the muzzleloader magazines an event was related by an anthropologist who also made Iroqouis war clubs

    in his spare time. Parking at a museum he unloaded his wares for a show and tell session and had them in a bag. As he moved toward the door three toughs accosted him asking if he had some expensive cameras and cash to give them. Their menacing smirks disappeared when he withdrew a club and commenced to put all three in the hospital. They were lucky they weren't put in the morgue.

  4. Well, look here what changed! I can carry my Bowie too:

     

    TULSA, Oklahoma -

    One of the many new laws that went into effect this month in Oklahoma is a change to a knife law that was originally put on the books in 1921.

    SB 1159 became effective November 1, 2016, which removes dagger, bowie knife, dirk knife and sword cane from the items prohibited from carry in Oklahoma, according to the law.

    It also repealed the ban on carrying switchblade (automatic) knives

     

     

     

    I think Texas still forbids big knives and such as sword canes.

  5. It used to be an article of fashion and self defense against four leg and two legged varmints. At my age no one would even blink unless it had blades and spikes growing out of it.

     

    "Don't mess with that old man he's got a mean cane made out of black locust with a bois d'arc head, carries a 1911, and a big knife!"

     

    Anyway, sometimes they come in handy.
