Happy Birthday my brother, and may they just keep on coming year after year for you (Birthday’s and Morels).Sorry it took so long to respond, just saw your quote. They have been up here for a while, my family pulled out 30 or 40 big ones because they didn't realize they were edible.

I am always amazed how much the leather sucks up, especially when it’s heated up first (I do the same thing). I liked putting on a final coat of mink oil and hand buffing it out, but without the preheat. Then a gentle heat and slow rub with a clean sheep’s skin cloth, that worked best for me. Draw EZ by Galco is a quick dry lube for inside your leather holsters, only need a slight slight dab, spread it quickly as it dries quickly too. This seals the outside smaller leather sheaths well and locks in a darker color too. It’s super slick and dust and daily grit and grime repels right off. At least for me that’s what I found worked best as I was pretty tough on leather back in the day.Retired UPS Driver here is coat number 2 . I’m thinking it still needs another because it was even richer/darker yesterday. I’m sure it has enough protection but I want it a little darker. I’m really surprised how much this leather is sucking it up lol !
Happy Birthday buddy, although belated. You got a great haul there, it’s tough to beat out a 67 GT unless it’s next to your Blue Twist Tighe.
The 5th was my birthday, and I got the Lego 1967 Mustang GT as a present. 1471 friggin pieces. Was a fun build. Today with my Best Buy gift card my Marshall Kilburn 2 Bluetooth speaker came. It's phenomenal with the adjustable bass and treble knobs.
Anyway, for Easter was the pastel blue Twist Tighe and a green Case mini-copperlock. Today just the Tighe.
Thanks Brother ! I’ll have to give it a tryI am always amazed how much the leather sucks up, especially when it’s heated up first (I do the same thing).

Today, I’m carrying two exceptional, and exceptionally special to me, knives. A good friend and a hell of a guy sent these to me.
