The Singlebarbed Knuckle Shiv.
I got a package last week in a plain brown wrapper that tripped off the house metal detector. I opened it anyway.
What is it? Prison shiv? Brass knuckles for training as a cage fighter?
It’s fly tying paraphernalia from the dangerous mind of Keith Barton.
Instructions for the proper way to wear, use and buy the sixth finger scissor found here.




my package is still sitting in quarantine. Mandatory 30 day hold so that the half-lives can come down to a tolerable level before use.
Meathead! You’re wearing that Shiv for formal dining not fly tying! I’ll send you two more so you can use your feet at the table …
Formal?! He’s wearing a flippin’ polo jersey!
@ roughfisher. I did the same thing with Gracie’s flies.
@kbarton. What’s formal dining? I did link to your proper use instructions lest readers be mislead by my visual.
@MG Bridgehampton Polo = Thug Life.
Nice nose hair trimmers.
I mistakenly perceived that fur on your arm as a sick new sleeve of tattoos. I thought to myself, “Damn, Pete has really taken this indie-freelance thing to the next level.”
Holy cow I didn’t notice that before. Looking at my arms right now…I think that’s a shadow man.
