Re-scaled
Ever since my public humiliation, my pocketknife's sad state of disrepair was a daily burr. I reacquainted myself to the workshop and cut some wood.
It's nice to have something custom made close at hand.
Repair was more cathartic than a range run. The wood came from the clearance table at the local Woodcraft store. Hoping it ain't on the verboten list. Wanted a wax finish. Imperial Sizing Die Wax is marketed as a high end resizing lubricant. I often use it for my rifle cases. I little bit goes a long way.
The wood soaks it up. Wiping off the excess buffs the wood to a satin finish.

Whip it ou ... wait ... wait a minute ... where?
Og asks ... the blogoshere responds.
I've gotta problem with pocketknives.
I lose 'em.
When I read thepost challenge by Og, I reached into pocket, fumbled and grrrrr.
Dammit. Again.
Over the years, I've misplaced dozens.
Had been carrying a small Gerber folder. It's around here somewhere.
When this happens ... I pickup one of my backups. Slip it into front pocket and carry on.
My rule now-a-days, no more than $20-$30 for an everyday pocketknife.
They just go missin' on me too often.
