Hartshead stag today.
I remember they were very small, and wrapped in little twists of foil paper. Not too sweet, with a very strong coffee flavor. As a kid, they were a last choice candy, but I imagine I might like them now.
right back at you Jack; lovely knife with a wonderful view!!!
All thanks to you Jack! Have a great Sunday.Nice pic Dave
I hate you Paul, hahaha! And I thought it was perfect. Damn photography skills. I just checked with a 10X loupe and it appears to be a very slight wave in the edge, but not a ding.- great folder and composition
(.....tiny ding in the cutting edge midway....?)

Great Ebony on this Wharncliff Trapper, and I love the way Tony Bose shapes his blades and swedges.
Have a Blessed Sunday everyone! Geaux Tigers!
Ed @Modoc ED , that is one of the best looking Moore Makers knives I have ever seen! Congratulations! I have always wanted to add a Moore Maker to my collection but have never found the right one.
JJ Cahill , you have a wonderful knife aesthetic. Thanks for the photos.
Jack Black , I remember Coffee Nips Jack. As r8shell wrote, they seemed to be more of an adult hard candy; small and not too sweet. Naturally, I avoided them as a kid for those reasons. Back then, I liked my candy soft, large, and as sweet as possible! They do have a tiny amount of caffeine. John JohnDF , you confessed a few days ago that you have entered the world of adult hard candy. Do you have any information for Jack on Coffee Nips?
View attachment 1233814 We’ll be having a Thanksgiving potluck dinner at church, so this Case slimline trapper in stainless will be along in *case* anything needs dissecting, bisecting, or disassembly.
I'm sure at the very least she had a paring knife.I wonder if she had a Barlow in there, too.
Right?Well, it is a werthers.
Very cool knife, ED.
That's a smart pairing, Jack.
I haven't tried those for a long time. I remember they grew on me the older I got. I'll have to try them again.John JohnDF , you confessed a few days ago that you have entered the world of adult hard candy. Do you have any information for Jack on Coffee Nips?
It's wonderful to see such honest use. I often say, "If this knife could talk..." But yours doesn't have to, since you were there for it all.
They sound worth investigating
I just did some online searching, and there is a "Coffee Nips" sold, but they just look like coffee flavored Werther's. What I remember were very small, maybe triangular or pyramid shaped, and in a foil twist like this:Jack Black , I remember Coffee Nips Jack.

In the kitchen, I'm sure. In her purse...who knows?I'm sure at the very least she had a paring knife.
Doesn’t it have to get used before I sharpen it?- oops, sorry, Alan! Yes, it is very slight, it'll sharpen out easy I'm sure
