9:01 ❤ I miss the days of listening to the older folks tell stories, always lots of wisdom thanks for another great story.
Thanks David, have a blessed Sunday my friend
It's a joy just listening to you it make me think about the old days before I was born they call it radio tv where family just sit around the radio and listen to the story ❤
Thank you ❤️
I miss my mountain Papaw! He was a very gentle soul.
me too my friend
Good Monday morning JD, another good story as i drink my first cup of hot strong black coffee. I have an Old Timer pocket knife, i know longer carry it , i have it put away so i won't loose it . I reckon young guys don't carry a pocket knife anymore. My Dad always carried an old timer pocket knife. He loved to set under a shade tree and whittle. Spit and whittle. I wasn't raised in the Appalachian mountains but i enjoy taking road trips and going through some of them. If i had to live in any other state besides eastern Oklahoma it would be in Tennessee or North Carolina. Have a good week JD. Reckon i better read a couple of chapters in my Bible before i watch the morning news. Pray for this nation JD. Im shocked by all the evil taken place these days. This nation needs to turn back to God.
Thanks for sharing those memories ❤️
I’m a younger guy and I carry a pocket knife everyday, that’s just how my pops raised me. I grew up in the foothills of the Appalachian mountains in Alabama. I’ve noticed most guys my age and younger don’t really carry a pocket knife, I don’t understand it but then again I don’t understand the way the world is now either.
Great story JD
Just keep tellin'.❤❤❤❤❤😂
Thank you!
To me heaven will be on my Mamaws's front porch shelling peas, snapping bans, drinking fresh lemonade & listening to her tell stories
❤️
Love it. The yarns are so great. Thank you for sharing them.
You are so welcome!
I love this more than anything I ever seen
Thank you Randy!
TFS JD.This was another great story.I really enjoyed it.❤️👍🏻
❤️
This chapter should be titled "The Mud Hole." Very little about the pocket knife, which we called a jackknife back in New England. Today, everyone in my family that totes a jackknife carries a traditional Barlow.
Delighted to see you this morning. Good morning JD. Love these stories. Keep em coming
Thanks Michael!
Thank you JD for another enjoyable story. So thankful that God's hand of protection was upon you and yours during the storms.
God bless.
It got rough for sure!
Yea, I used to get some pretty incredible stories from my papaw and dad too. They always seemed to have just enough truth to them to be believable. It’s untelling how many times I was able to use just a little piece of one or another story to get through a problem of my own. Thanks J. D. for taking us along this time.
❤️
Good morning from California JD! I couldn’t sleep so I listened to your family story. Boy what smarts your grandpa had! I love the photos. Thank you. Have a wonderful day.
Thank you Karen!
I can remember my first "old timer". I just turned 6. Thank you for bringing back that memory.😊
❤️
Enjoyed, JD
Thanks John!
Papaw was smarter than most folks these days. ❤
Yes ma’am
Smooth Strategy!!
❤️
I'm 75 and can't remember when I did not carry a Barlow even when I worked in an office and wore suits and tied.
Those are some good knives!
@@theappalachiachannel you bet
Keep one by my bed next to my Peacemaker clone!!!!!!!!!
Good Morning JD. Thanks for another story. We didn’t get blown away or washed out last night. Hope you’re ok. That’s one thing about living on the west side of this mountain. Hope the rest of your weekend is pleasant. I know you’re already thinking about your next story🙏. Can’t wait, give us some more……..
yeah, it got mighty rough here on the ridge last night, my yorkie lost her mind and we had to lock her in a dark closet with all the lightning and such
Sure Starting to build Here in Maine tonight,55-65mph winds&Rain tomorrow,be interesting.
@@theappalachiachannel lol, my killer 3 lb chihuahua buried tried and Velcro herself to me. Sometimes I wonder when it storms and wind’s so strong if it’s gonna blow me into Tennessee or Georgia😂
Your stories are interesting & your voice is comforting. tysm
Thank you so much my friend

Thank you Stone!
Great story thanks so much
Thank you sir!
I enjoy your stories Got an ol case sod buster my papaw gave me i tote it with me every day best knife i ever had cant help but to think of him every time i use it
❤️
My grandpa always whittled under a shade tree after the day’s work was done, his knife was always razor sharp. I was a young boy and I would ask to borrow his knife from time to time, he would always hand it to me and say, “here, take it and go cut yourself”, I always did just that. When he was in his 90’s someone bought him a new pocket knife, he handed it to me to check it out and I proceeded to cut myself with it! I was always a pretty skilled craftsman and handy with all kinds of tools, except grandpa’s knife.
Dang it Greg! You got blood on my knife again!
❤
❤️
Thank you. You're a good story teller.

Good evening JD I been busy this morning. It's a cold rainy day here in old Virginia I just got a chance to sit down Love the stories
I’ve been napping today myself
J D what part of Appalachia are you from? I am thinking North Carolina.
I’m in East TN
What a wonderful story. I look forward to seeing you have another story to tell. God Bless
Glad you enjoyed it!
I came along in the mid 1950s i miss hearing the older folks showing me older life skills and telling me stories. I saw the last few chestnut trees in SW Virginia. The last of those folks are gone and only three are left from my parents generation.
❤️
@@theappalachiachannel Thank you I really enjoyed your story. I remember my Grandpa showing me how to start a fire with flint and steel. His family when he was little one lived too far from the nearest store to keep up with the need for matches and two they couldn't afford to spend money on them as back where they lived hard cash was in short supply from when he was born 1902 up to around 1940 it wasn't really easy until the mid 1950s. A lot of the people lived by doing a lot of bartering.
Thanks for sharing a great story! Blessings.
Thank you!
JD good morning buddy
