Very nice! 8 point? The 'NASA knife' meets whitetail. :spyder: Tasty. :cool: Yup, 8 point with a 18 inch spread. That is pretty good around here. It wasn’t easy. I put a lot of time in this year. I have probably spent 80 hours in the woods this fall. I still have doe tags for archery and muzzleload...

I used my favorite beer drinkin' knife to well, open a beer.

Indeed Doc Dan, the RockSalt seems to be destined. Ok a bit melodramatic but still.....

Indeed there already is a Rock Salt.

As well as an orange handled sprint.

Not to discourage you, maybe add a twist.

I dunno... Maybe i just sound contrarian, but my most practical Spyderco has got to be the Santoku. I have used that knife nearly every day for the past ~15 years, for at least one or two meals a day. It definitely doesn't have the sex appeal of any of my Spyderco folders, but it is day-in and day-o...

I'd likely be interested. I have almost purchased an Atlantic Salt a couple of times, as i think i would really like the handle. I don't need the shackle key, but that's ok. If they did put a leaf or drop point (a la Stretch) blade into the AS handle, it would be cool for it to have a more negative ...

I took this picture just minutes before my horse literally ripped the toenail off my big toe with his hoof. :eek: :( That´s not exactly pleasant, sorry for you! Lost both finger- and toe nails myself, due to little climbing accidents/rockfall, so I know that.. :rolleyes: / Nice scales in any case! ...

Nice one!

I'd be down. As cool as SB (or V-Toku) would be, I doubt we'll see a Japanese steel in the Native.

52100 would be nice. I also don't have any yet. As others have said, a 52100 Chief would be cool too.

So, tonight I went for it between church services and this is how it turned out. I placed a sheet of sand paper in a tray of water about a quarter inch deep and gently worked it back and forth for a while, progressing from 350 to 600 to 1500 grit. I am extremely pleased with the finish the 1500 gri...

I only have one. K390. So far it is the only one I want.

The REX45 Manix LW has become my regular work carry, and continues to be, even as the Fall weather turns wet. :spyder: I really like all my Spydies, but this one has become my go-to work knife. I often carry the Hawkbill Dragonfly Salt SE or Lil Native Backlock SE to work alongside the Manix. This p...

20201001_175903476sm.jpg I've been carrying the REX45 Manix LW most days for work. ..... How do you like it so far? I personally am really glad I pulled the trigger on mine.. definitely a keeper (while I might sell the BD1N Manix someday, though I like that one a lot too). It's fantastic. The steel...

cleaned off, or letting the chemistry happen?

Cleaned off, just wanted to see how a pink lemon tasted.

looks tasty.

To carry on the GEC theme, this Waynorth is a GEC built knife. This and my Crown Lifter are my two more precious GECs and i have a couple others that are really nice too but i'm less attached. I don't see many more in my future.

20201001_175903476sm.jpg I've been carrying the REX45 Manix LW most days for work. The photo above is from the beginning of the month. The one below is from yesterday. PXL_20201029_160210998sm.jpg Fancy for after work-- pinned and bolstered. Ebony and linen micarta. Mmmm! :cool: PXL_20201031_030103...

Still waiting...

Ha! Waiting indeed.

What sort of grinds are you thinking about? FFG? Other? I might advocate for 2mm over 2.5, depending on design. And maybe steel...LC? Other? It's a bit apples and oranges, but the knife that I have subject to the most stresses and strains must be a Frost' s classic Mora knife. I have had it for 25 y...

Nice, Enactive. What kinds of peppers are those? I would try to identify them but it can be tuogh to be specific without superb detail, or without tasing them. Are they all bell, or bell and banana? or super hot? or... I can't easily tell - I could tell jalapenos or cayenne probably, maybe habaeros...
