Been out for a walk in the woods. A couple of families of Long Tailed Tits were working there way through the trees. It's clearly a good time for fungi because there were various fruiting bodies throughout the wood. Also came across a holly tree awash with vibrant red berries. This always beats a good day in the office whatever the weather.

Oh, great photo’s also!

Thanks  :cheers:

Day 25.
Dayhike with family. Found an old boundary stone with a royal sign. These were build about 300-350 years ago and usually showed the borders of the royal forest, that means royal hunting grounds.

Later that day gathered mistletoe, saw usage.
And beautiful sunset.

A royal boundary stone! Now that is a cool find! These are one of the things that make the outdoors so much fun.

Good use of the saw Barry  :tu:
Any plans to tap that Maple for self-made syrup?

Day 25 :

As most of you guys know, I can't do a knife challenge without breaking down a chicken in some way. This challenge would be no exception:




This nice little 3.5# bird got 'spatchcocked'. The main blade, razor sharp, took out the back bone, clavicles, wishbone, and ribs. This allows the bird to lay nice and flat on the grill:




The SAK did a great job here. When I'm using a big kitchen knife, I often just 'power' though tricky spots. With a more delicate SAK, a little finesse is called for......and the SAK delivers. Taking my time, I worked around joints and tricky spots. The sharp Huntsman easily cut through tendon, meat, and cartilage. No problems.

After the SAK did it's work, the bird got dusted with my Cajun spice blend (I have posted this mix elsewhere on MTo, but I'm happy to shoot the recipe to anyone who needs a good Cajun spice mix.) and grilled for about 45 minutes. Fantastic!




Good job, Huntsman!  :tu:

Working on the Christmas list. The SMKW catalog I blame for most of this hobby. It's when I really started lusting after SAKs, starting with the Equestrian. As a kid, I had the JcPenney and Sears catalogs, now it's the Spyderco, SMKW, and Proto catalogs.
