what will be your first fixie?
Solving problems you didn't know you had in the most obscure way possible

"And now, it's time to hand this over to our tame race axe driver. Some say, he can live in the forest for six months at a time without food, and he knows of a secret tribe of only women where he is their God. All we know is, he's call the Styx!" - TazzieRob

Tough call.

I suppose you could wait to see how much I suffer during this challenge..... but then, it's not clear they will be continuing the Ulu in their line-up......

Interesting challenge.  Surprised no one has considered a fixed blade NECK KNIFE configuration.

If in office setting, carry under that fancy Neck tie.

I unfortunately will not be able participate, I and Mrs. have a thawcation planned, departing on 2/13 and returning 8 or 9 days later out of the country.   

My neighbor is from NW Alaska, and uses a Ulu in her kitchen, and out on the deck for barbecues.  She is very good with it, suspecting she can even trim the wings off a black fly if she wanted.

Her husband is with NOAA, and they met while he was doing ice research and she was skinning seals for her dad and uncles.  I also suspect she is snaring the neighborhood rabbits, as there are not many tracks in the snow of late.

I would want her on my team if ever a survival event occurs.


 
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

A SMART man always knows what to say!
   A WISE man knows whether or not to say it!!!
