I’ll stick to this all original Collins and Fairbanks—and a chew—for my statement.
Some smoke it, some soak it.

And few pics heralding what I’ve been up to this week.
Been very busy buying these 40s through 80s all carbon steel folding knives and building this humble display case. $120 in materials and thankfully didn’t have to buy the oak and fancy fabric, as I already had it on hand. View attachment 587025 View attachment 587024 View attachment 587026

Knives, though a long and usable interest of mine, aren’t near as fun or profitable as good old felt hats.

Both of you killing it today!

Ooohhhh

Been too lazy to document but have been wanting to wear this one for a while now. The Classic by Mallory:

If Eric (@Short Balding Guy) has one in his collection you know it's gotta be good.

Classic personified. Both old. And new.

This one certainly belongs with my comment above.

[Randall Renshaw]

Wow! That display is beautiful!

Thanks, Brent!
Was a ton of work. I had erroneous thoughts of whipping it out in a quickness.
Not so.
Was seeing smaller, factory built knife display cases that were priced $250/350.
Thought that was too much.
They isn’t too much.

SBCD for grocery shopping.

That is a stunner, Brent!

Like the OR with the corduroy Rockmount Ranchwear shirt.

Thank you, HJ.

Sunday has come around again. Hats of the week time.

Borsalino longhair

Lock&Co (again)

Borsalino Gulaita

Feinste Velour Mode

Panfilo

 

[Daniele Tanto]

Lock&Co (again)

Borsalino Gulaita

Borsalino longhair

In order of preference con qualche invidia, caro Stefan
Like every Sunday morning, the rite of choice is repeated, with great joy.
A chapter should be opened on the Borsalino longhair. There are few of them and felt is always an enigma. I say that it was certainly not one of the company's flagships, despite their elegance

Grazie, Daniele. Those true longhairs are indeed rare in the Borsalino line up. They made them later on in the Ardilla line especially, but other than those they are rare. I posted this one in full here: https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/the-borsalino-brotherhood.13133/post-3041919

You've surpassed yourself this week, Stefan. And that's no mean feat.

I have to go with the Lock & Co though. What a beauty among beauties.
