All in all a pretty decent movie – good cast for this one – Davis McLean – Charles Bronson – James Gregory – Ralph Taeger – and in her first feature length role, Mary Tyler Moore / uncredited in his role as narrator is Jimmy Stewart . . . for a pretty good WIKI page on the movie CLICK HERE . . .
SPOILER ALERT!! – The BUFF ( the B-52A ) in the opening scenes doesn’t crash, it went on to serve a long and illustrious career with NASA after its role as a movie star and retired gracefully – and if you want to make the road trip you can see it here . . .

The first ( of several ) Finch Knives I’m getting my paws on – All I can say is . . .
All Y’all are in for a treat . . .
The first thing you see when you open the box? A Band-aid – It is that SHARP!
A couple of stickers and the warranty card . . .
All wrapped in it’s own little baggie . . .
Fit and finish is real nice – and the Finch emblem glows in the dark when exposed to light – really cool stuff . . .
Nice flipping action – rides on ball bearings – bump it off the detent and it’s dead smooth to open . . .
The frame lock is right at half way across the blade and solid as can be . . .
Blade centering is good – fitment between scales and frame nice and tight . . .
The pictures just don’t do justice to the scales – with the light just right on them they look about a 1/2″ deep – really nice stuff . . .
The frame is satin finished stainless steel and the blade is 3.4″ 154CM stainless steel dagger patterned satin finished – now that’s a mouthful . . .
Good looking – of course I make it look better / LOL – and feels good in your hand . . .
Finch knives bump you up into a higher tier of knives – price wise as well as quality wise – this particular knife came from SMKW.COM – CLICK HERE TO GET YOURS! – at $145.00 it is a great deal simply because the quality comes in well above the price point – if you want to get into a higher level of quality and workmanship in your knife buying but just can’t take a deep enough breath to drop $300 or more on a knife you might consider Finch Knife Company.
The only down side about Finch Knives?? If you run across one you want – DON’T HESITATE to order – they sell out quick!
I have had this one on back order since February and as soon as I get the E-Mail I’m grabbing two of them – I have read several reviews on the abalone under resin on these and everybody raves about the scales . . .
What’s in YOUR pocket?
Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – Fish Heads are Cheap!!
Something for your Saturday – don’t believe I’ve posted this one before – Sidney Toler is the best “Charlie Chan” ( IMHO ) and paired with Mantan Moreland as Birmingham Brown makes for a most excellent movie – Enjoy!!
Let’s make it a Double Feature – “The Shanghai Cobra” for your enjoyment as well!
Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – Fish Heads are Cheap!!
Tough little ships in their day – 175 of the class were built during WW2 – they were the right ship at the right time – a fairly decent WIKI page on them if you want to read up on the class . . .
