There is a funny poem by Banjo Patterson called “The Man from Iron Bark” about a city barber having a bit of fun with a country ”Yokel” and a cut throat razor. Look it up – worth the read.

Great story - thanks Neilau

I haven't used a cutthroat in 20 years. Although after having read this, and having a convo with Riy ,and digging up my old blades I find the urge to get into it again. I just have to find that darn strop!

These are gorgeous.

Another one i got from a friend and finally got it finished with new scales in tiger stripe now time to grow the beard and give it a try ^_*

Beautiful work Picker - love it! The tiger stripe is really sweet - but I also loved the ghost jade too.

Thank Riy
I tried the full URL and then deleted it and tried the shortened - now I see to delete the 'S' as well.

Thanks Sean for linking the video.

I didn't think anyone would actually hunt the poem out.

Patterson (the poet) was an interesting character and wrote many poems in a similar vein.

Glad you enjoyed it.
