Any knife collectors here? If so anyone experienced a queen cutlery knife made in the Daniels family era? I just bought my fourth. Picked up one of the qtac knives. You can tell it is a handmade production knife. There are little asymmetries if you look closely. The handle was beveled free hand as well as blade sharpening and shaping. Good steel ats34 equivalent to 154cm. This was their first attempt at a tactical knife and they got more right than wrong. Clip screws should have been low profile. As it they stop the pocket from going deep as it should. So I'm gunna change them. But despite it's flaws I love the knife.

Another more rare razor. I guess this is the ugly cousin to the H1. The H2 is a better shaver in my book. 

   

This was my first time to use this brand. I liked it. The scent is veddy nice and performance is solid. Looks like the price is ok and they support a good cause. 
Loved the shave with the G8 too. 

   

Ok so….  As stated in a few videos I recently got a box of goodies in from a member here. As usual not going to give a name until it is approved by him. I actually have not cataloged the whole thing. I did find a nice E2 Schick that will be going to a new home. There are also several E3’s. Now for todays fun. This was a veddy nice find. If I am remembering correctly it is the Ever Ready Slim-V. Simply the ER version of the GEM Feather Weight. It was made in Great Briton and really is in great shape. I paired it with TOBS Rose and Pashana AS to keep the British flavor going. As expected it gave a veddy nice easy shave. This one will probably stay with me. 

   

Had a great shave with a new to me E2 this evening. The handle is darker then any I have seen. Some how I did not get a picture but I did a video.

1st run with this flat handle single edge that takes an Injector blade with no issues what so ever. Not much info found on this thing. It's a mild shaver but gave a nice comfortable and close shave with attention to angle. Felt like a mild Schick Injector razor. Gonna be a long and wet day for work today. Have a fun day guys !!

   
   
   

I found this video on makingof  wooden Chess men for world tournaments. Very fascinating to see for those who admire good wood working. Especially Jayaruh

My only affiliation of the following product and company is as a full retail buyer of their product. Other than that I'm not connected to them in any way. When something is good I believe in letting folks know about it and when something is the pits I let folks know about that too.

I'm not much of a coffee drinker. In the AM I have a hot mug of faux Joe roasted grain beverage with half and half and half (Ha Ha! 1 1/2! Too funny. I'm leaving it.) and monk fruit extract to sweeten it. But every once in a while I want a pick me up during the day and that's when I want some caffeine. I recently discovered Ki Tu Super Coffee. They might have different flavors, but I have the mocha. It's clearly a keto beverage with 2 grams of net carbs and I have to tell you, it's absolutely delicious. It has MCT oil, 10 grams of protein, and did I mention delicious? Oh, and 200mg of caffeine.

Today I'm making another loaf of the King Arthur Flour low carb bread and I'm waiting for it to rise. Today in an effort to give it more flavor I used a bottle of wheat lager beer* as the liquid and 18 drops of wheat bread flavor from 1 on 1 flavors. It's the first time I've used this particular flavor... fingers crossed. Maybe I should have warmed the beer, it's taking forever to rise. 

The bread turned out good.

*Yes, I'm aware that it's giving it more carbs. But I sliced it extremely thin and got 19 slices and 2 ends that went to the dogs. The bread is good. What's a beer? 70 carbs? Lets use 100 carbs, and 20 slices. That's 5 carbs per slice and we're on the high side of the estimate. More than I would like but it's one way to give flavor to it. It's still a work in progress.

Anybody want? Buy it now listing on the bay.

Not mine and I don't want.
