Thanks Michael,
I'm having problems posting images on this here website. Granddaddy was a knife maker as well. Here are a couple of samples. His name is stamped at the base on one of the pics. This is what he use to whittle. He bought a boatload of
Sheffield steel long ago. This knick-knack bowl has at least a couple of hundred pieces of wood. The finish is beginning to delaminate on the bottom of the bowl. There was a matching lid for it,but it is MIA.
