Lucky Friend
So my friend has been carrying his S&W for some time. Another friend had an older saber grind endura that was dull as heck. The 2nd friend got a feel of the sharpness of the S&W and swapped his endura with it. The 1st friend knew I carried Spydercos and asked me if I could sharpen it for him...

Re: Sharpened A Coworker's Knife
I sharpened a kitchen knife for a friend once. Yep, his wife cut herself later that day. She may have been used to the old more dulled blade not the newer high performance blade. It takes a little getting used to. I was in a shop recently and the owner was showing me a knife. Before he did though h...

Re: Laid my love to rest today
I feel for you man. I, too can't live without the unconditional love of these precious animals. Each time they leave me, I say never again, then some other friend steals my heart. I just have to make more space in my heart since each one forever has a place.

Re: NCIS Nick Torres' knife?
O come on. We all know that Glocks make a cocking sound as the hammer is pulled back like a single action Colt revolver. What is wrong with all of you! Hahaha! It does get ridiculous. People actually get their reality from movies and TV. I was active as a range officer for some time. Me and my fell...

Re: Why are so many people concerned with perfect blade centering?
Lots of sensible sentiments on both sides of the issue. Thing is, nobody is going to change their minds. If you don't mind uncentered blades, no argument in the world will change that. Same holds true for the opposite side. It's great that this can be discussed here with no bad blood but isn't all t...

Re: Why are so many people concerned with perfect blade centering?
So at what price point does an off center blade start being okay?

Re: Martial Arts Experiences Discussion Thread
I was at the park and my kid asked me what a group of people were doing. I said they were practicing reverse crescent kicks, and showed her the difference between a regular one and a reverse, and compared them to a roundhouse which she's familiar with. Little while later I glanced back over and saw...

Re: Sci-fi series
Although not specifically science fiction, my favorite of the old-time writers is Algernon Blackwood. His stories may be better known for their supernatural elements, but he was a writer way ahead of his time. He had stories that dealt with reincarnation, alternate dimensions, etc. He was also a bi...
