yes I'm still around. it's not the markeings that get me, though to have those markings is unique. it's the handle material. it doesn't look like it's been rehandled. it came from my grandfather and it all looks factory. But nowhere is this type of…
I came across a 4" Serpentine 4 blade equal end pen. All 4 blades are short.

another item would be lok-tite or a similar product to s…
Add a can of Ren Wax to keep them nice and purdy and I also use a little bag of Silica gel to keep the moisture out !
You sure did a good list though! One doesn't even think of all the stuff that you use and accumulate.
