The answer to Bilbos’s infamous riddle…

To answer Bilbo’s infamous riddle “what do I have in my pockets” My 30 year old Camel zippo, a brass Protec Runt reverse Tanto switchblade and my brown titanium Seamaster 300 pro.

Sitting by a fire on a rainy Cascadian evening.

Thanks!

It’s the Ramblin’ Jacket from a little company in Portland OR called Ship John.

I dig it. I recently bought a chore coat from LC King out of Tennessee.

Very cool. That’s the first I’ve heard of them. Looks like good quality stuff. 🍻

Some quality bits there! I’ve lusted after a Ship John but just can’t believe the lead times. Pretty sweet!!

I have a few shirts but had never seriously considered a jacket. I happened to be in Portland and stopped by just to try a Wills jacket on for future reference/shits and giggles. It actually didn’t fit me very well.

The guy there asked if I had ever considered the Ramblin’. I said, “No. It sold out before I ever had a chance.” He goes in the back and comes out with one in my size that was an exchange. It fit perfectly. I wore it out. Total luck.

Wasn't it Bilbo and not Frodo that wondered what he had in his pocket after finding Gollum's ring in the cave?

What I usually carry are my keys and a small tool on a titanium clip and a Zorro lighter.

Love it!

This custom swiss army knife can often be found in my pocket. The reverse side is etched with the JRRT symbol.

You are right it was. It’s been 25 years since I last read the Hobbit. It’s been corrected.

Hope you are not keeping all these in the same pocket. Just thinking about it makes me cringe at the thought of scratching the watch. It is one of my remote aspirations that piece. 😬

Don’t worry everything has its own place.
