daved is back in his shop making blades and we are collaborating on a few pieces. Here is my blade (part of a barter deal) with my own practice sheath…2 rows of stitching are tough to pull off on a sheath made of 10oz veg tan..tough stuff to manage,….each one is a labor of love. […]

Ride to Northern Vermont
Jason and his crew needed an adult chaperone to take them through CT, MA and VT -and so enlisted the services of yours truly. We ate copious amounts of BBQ’d meat, we drank just a modest number of adult beverages, it was a grand time and a great ride.

Breakfast @ Betty’s w/ Don
I was fortunate and had a chance to hook with an old friend from back in the day, recently – his name is Don. This consumate character lives in Cali and I can almost forgive him bailing on the East (East Coast Rules) because ya see, Don grew up in Lackawanna, a hardscrabble town on […]

Val wanted a cuff […]

eddies thing
Eddie inspired this belt case design – it holds a mini Maglite and a Leatherman. We were in Sturgis in 2008 and on more than one occasion he had the tool needed to take on the job at hand, pulling it from a similar sheath on his belt. I asked if I could cop the […]

Pupkin and I went and visited the Greek the other day. The trip is a southbound 2hr slog through the NYC/NJ urban sprawl – which we made is surprisingly good time, flying the entire way (and if you’ve ever travelled with the two of us, i do mean flying)..with nary a lick of traffic – quite amazing. To boot, […]

a snapshot in time…1993
16 years is a pretty long time insofar as looking in the rear view… and alot of water has passed under the proverbial bridge. In these images, I welcome you to another “typical” 1993 Sunday morning ride with the standard crew at the time. Some of these folks are no longer amongst the living or have fallen off the radar… making the images here even […]
