Anyone know what this is?

Looks like a do it yourself circumcision tool to me. Best handle with extreme caution!

What the heck is that barbaric looking thing!? Do we want to know?? Lol

It looks like one of those tools used to cut the end off of a soft boiled egg so you can eat it out of the shell like they do in those fancy restaurants.

All I know is is if four guys were holding me down and another pulled this out and came towards me I’d PANIC.

Kytrapper, LOL! Me too!

Stacey says it’s a quail egg cutter so you can pour them out of the shell. Now, whatever Leon had it for……who knows.

Someone suggested to me it might be a tool used by an undertaker to remove a ring finger in order for the undertaker to get a “tip” right before he closed the casket for the last time! I guess gold is gold!

Saw a undertaker remove a ring one time. Looked suspicious to me. Never did ask the family if they got the ring. Still wondering?

Bearwallow, now that you’ve proven you can post we want to see you on here regularly. Get ole Buckeye on here too.

Well, it wouldn’t hurt, and it wouldn’t bleed.

I’m putting a pint of my beaver/cat lure on the table. It’s east ky castor with some additional Alabama castor and fixed with an ingredient that cats, beaver and coyotes like. I’ve had good luck with it every year.

Also putting two four ounce bottles of cat gland lure. These cat glands were cut and aged (2.5 years) by me. They are the same batch of glands but completely different. #1 is very slightly stronger with its ingredients. #2 is a sweeter mellow smell. These bottles are 75% full of aged Kentucky cat glands and 20% cat urine

Mr. Tucker, Since you are the mathematician in the trapper group, I have a problem I would like for you or some other trapper to solve. Mr. Pickard and I have been discussing the book, The Long Rifle. Daniel Boone’s grandson had his long rifle and he wants to go out west and become a mountain man. After 2 or 3 years of killing Indians, etc., he becomes a full-fledged mountain man. The group of trappers divide, and a year later, they are supposed to rendezvous at a certain place. The grandson’s group was there on time, but the next group didn’t show for weeks. After everyone’s thinking they had been killed, they showed up all at once with a string of horses loaded with beaver. They only had 2-3 traps each since Indians kept stealing their traps, but they came into camp with 14,800 beaver unskinned. They all fell in and skinned them that evening. I told you all that to ask you this. How many horses would it take to haul 14,800 unskinned beaver? How long would it take to skin 14,800 beaver? How long would it take to make 14,800 hoops for those beaver? I’m tired just thinking about it.
