Thanks, tank, here's a bonus pic! :D I've always liked mottled coloration in bone.

Wait a second. That is an odd bird. What was the donor knife for the Northfield spear blade? I can’t think of a Northfield 15. Almost all 15’s are Tidioutes and almost all Northfields have long pulls instead of nail nicks. ???

I’ve been enjoying all the snow-in-Texas photos, but sorry to hear about the troubles with the power grid! :eek:

As for the white stuff, I much prefer having that white stuff on my vehicle to this white stuff that comes up off the roads here in winter. o_O

Thanks, GT. I feel like I haven’t had to shovel too much snow this year. (Normally I have to level off the top of the snow pile next to the driveway when it gets difficult to throw snow over the top of it, but I haven’t had to do that this year. Of course, winter isn’t over. :D)



That is certainly odd, Paul, but also pretty cool! :D :thumbsup:



These had spearpoint blades and nail nicks, but it’s hard to imagine cannibalizing one! :eek: I think there were Northfield #15 Radio Jacks with the same blade, too.

That's it Barrett:thumbsup: if memory serves (and I apologize for not remembering who I bought it from):( I believe he swapped it out for a one arm razor putting the razor into the HJ or the caplifter???

lol :D si , my Cuban Canadian sister in law calls it that when she gets raging :mad: about the snow.
16 years ago my father and mother in law moved to Florida, winter's in Canada being one of the reasons for it.

I remember the utter joy of seeing snow for the first time when I arrived in Canada 30 years ago.
We would take tons of pictures, develop them, send them to relatives back home lol :rolleyes:
Then it got old ha ha

It can be beautiful too ;) :)

Yes, I don't know if you remember @dc50's stunning photos? It looked gorgeous where he lived, but he said a lot of 'snow-birds' headed south every year, to avoid the harsh winter conditions. When I was an outdoor journalist, I could always sell photos with snow! :D Great pics Dan :) :thumbsup:

Thanks, I hope so too. It's pretty hardy stuff, but we'll see. You should definitely plant some! You can trim it nicely, rather than letting it go wild like I did. (I really like the way the undergrowth got so woody)

I'm carrying these today. Pic from last year:

Is that salt? :eek: Our roads freeze over now and then, but our cars don't get the rust damage.

I live on an avenue. If you park your car on the street, it'll soon get covered in even worse white stuff! :eek: :rolleyes: :thumbsup:

That kind of white stuff is no fun, either! :D

Yep, it’s salt. I suppose it’s the trade-off for having roads that are cleared within a few hours of any winter precipitation. The lady who runs the car wash I use told me they do twice as much business in winter (even when the temps are sub-zero).

That would be crazy to take a Radio Jack or Harness Jack apart for parts, but you are probably on the right track. There just weren’t a lot of Northfield 15’s ever made and of those made I think they might all be Charlie Campagna’s SFO’s.

Yep, that sounds pretty crazy (and I’d say you may have ended up with the better knife out of the deal, Paul!). :D
