Thanks!  I see what you are talking about on the folding knife.  There are 
guides inside the scabbords too.  Except for one erroneous item, which
doesn't have that.

> Metal guides for the blade???? What are metal guides?

Leslie, the metal part that the blade locks onto when you open knife (if it
is a folding knife) or the continuous part of the blade on a fixed knife is
the

'tang'. I'd expect that to be metal of the same quality as the
blade even on
very inespensive knives.

What I was refering to was on a folding knife, on good ones, the blade folds
into a metal guide, like a sheath, on the inside of the bone or plastic
handle. On the cheapies that metal guide is missing and the handle (tang not
withstanding) is all plastic.

Thanks for your tips.? I generally feed 6 - myself and spouse, and four
younglings. Daughters 13 and 6, and my two boys, who?are currently 11 and 8.
In about three years the two boys will probably be eating like 4, but so far,
just two. <g>

Ray, how many are you feeding? Do you do pints or quarts?

So, do you like sweet and sour pork?

Layer a jar with cubes of pork, bell pepper, onion and pineapple. Fill with
pineapple juice, can. When you go to use it, thicken and serve over rice.

Make meatballs. For Italian, use your usual recipe. Brown and then pack in
jars. Season tomato sauce (not to heavy on the garlic or rosemary as they
increase in flavor when canned) and thin. Pour over meatballs and can.

Or make Swedish meatballs, brown, pack in jars and fill with broth. Then to
make your cream gravy when you serve them.

Or make meatballs using 5 Spice and brown. Pack in a jar with pineapple,
bell pepper and onion. Fill with a diluted pineapple juice and use as sweet
and sour.

Cube chicken or turkey and layer with veggies. Fill with broth and you have
a chunky soup or thicken the broth and serve over biscuits.

Season ground beef for meat loaf. Use a wide-mouth canning jar. Process.
Zap in the microwave a minute or so and it slides right out. Slice and fry
and serve with gravy.

BTW, don't can pearl barley or noodles. Don't make a thick gravy. Wait
until you go to serve your canned goods to make the gravy.
