Re: Happy Easter!... And your carry today - ?
I'm carrying the same knife that I've been carrying for many weeks, a Stretch 2 XL in Cruwear. There's nothing fancy about it, it's just an all-around awesome knife. And in the spirit of the holiday, I'll share with you a picture of a sociopathic bunny named Bun Bun who carries a switchblade. I can...

Re: Forum Update/Maintenance & Move - PLEASE READ
You guys got me curious about forum speeds on mobile devices. I browsed on over to the form using Safari on my iPhone. The speeds were fast, equal to what I get on my desktop computer. Then I tried the Firefox browser, and the results were the same. No problems from Behind The Orange Curtain.

Re: How Shelac is made
I don't know if it is durable enough for a knife handle that would get used. It isn't like lacquer or polyurethane. Still, it would look really good. I know! But it's so "old school" that it's hard to resist. Most of my wood projects are finished in natural finishes: linseed oil, tung oil...

Re: How Shelac is made
Thanks. That video has been in my YouTube suggestions, but I didn't watch it until just now. I like the Business Insider videos. Shellac intrigues me, but I've not used it on anything since I was a little kid. How do you think it would work out on wood scales for my next Mule?

Re: Show your Flowers and plants photo
[img]Our first bloom ! Dan Very nice. That one doesn't waste any time between poking up from the dirt and flowering. I shot some flowers in the yard last week. This one is my favorite. The foliage of the blue flax is tiny and subtle, as are the flowers, but they're spectacular if you take the time ...

Re: "Delica" the Tip of a Mule 2?
I have one SPY27 OG Mule, but it's not in the field. It's in the kitchen. It's my go-to when I want a small knife. I have a couple other Mules that could assume that role, but there's nothing not-to-like about the SPY27.

Re: The best "worst" serrated knives I have ever owned.
Microserrated blades are not my cuppa tea. just these are my serrated knives and my experience with them you could give anyone and they'd never have to sharpen it. You mind elaborating on why you dislike small serrations That's ok if they work well for you and you like them. You asked for our opini...

Re: The best "worst" serrated knives I have ever owned.
Microserrated blades are not my cuppa tea.
I need a plain edge for most things, and normal serrations when the need calls for it.

Re: "Delica" the Tip of a Mule 2?
It's prettier the way it comes from the factory, but I can see why you would want to give it the "Delica Treatment." Or you could just wait until you push it too far, and it Delicas itself. Then you could just touch it up when you get home.

Re: What is the best application to tool steel for long term storage?
What is the best stuff I can apply to tool steel for long term storage? Something that wont break down, evaporate, or leave me with a rusted edge. Maybe some sort of heavier wax? Cosmoline. It's too messy for my purposes, but you asked. I've had guns that were coated many decades earlier, and they ...

Re: Good knife friendly, reasonably priced cutting board
You guys got me motivated to replace my favorite cutting board. It's old. We've had it for decades, planed it down as needed, and it's just not optimum any more. Etsy had the best selection. I picked out a cherry board in exactly the correct dimensions that I want for a general-purpose quick-and-eas...

That’s one of the shirts he bought for the show over 20 years ago. I'll admit that I'm not a fanboy. I don't know the details about celebrities, what they wear, or where they shop. However, I'm skeptical of your claim that the star is wearing a 20 year old shirt that he had to go out and buy himsel...
