Metasyntax Badge Request - Get to the choppa!
on: November 12, 2016, 10:28:42 PM
I had a pine tree on my property which died this summer, unfortunately. However, it was getting crowded out and most of the interior was dead and dry, so I suppose it was only a matter of time. I figured it would be easier to strip it down with it standing up, so I started going at it with my Condor machete. That was slow going though, so I snapped a pic and switched to my BK-9.



A little while later and it was pretty much bare (aside from a bit at the top I didn't bother with). This is actually the first time I've used my BK-9, normally I just have to work with green stuff and the machete does great. The heft of the BK-9 was perfect for driving through these branches though.



Now I just need to chop it down, which gives me a good chance to get the axe badge! That's for tomorrow though. Thanks for looking!

Thanks, buddy! I totally agree, Ethan Becker's knives are amazing, and Kabar does a decent job keeping them affordable — great value for the money, no doubt! You got a good collection there, for sure the BK7 and BK17 are two of my faves. I wish the BK20 hadn't been a limited edition deal, if they'd been available long term I'm sure I would've picked one up eventually. For a while now I've been trying to think up a reason to get a BK21, but then again, not really having a good reason hasn't stopped me before! Maybe after Christmas. :cheers:

Wow, very nice! A first production run with Ethan's signature and beautiful wood handles? Definitely not stock. :) Thanks for sharing!
