Day 7


Just got this Northfield #93 in Cocobolo and tagging along is a Remington Cattle Punch


Only use today was pruning some branches and I managed to cut my thumb   :facepalm:

No tendons cut and no stitches needed  :D

Day 7
Going through the thread with my morning (well morning for me) coffee.  Imagine my surprise when I saw the giveaway selection had been made.  Thanks Steve for the knife giveaway.  Thanks for all the congrats.  The Craftsman will definitely make a reappearance.

PS - Good luck with the surgery today Matt.  May you be giving thumbs up to people soon.

Thanks again everyone for your kind words :hatsoff:
The operation didn't happen yet. They'll call me within the next 3 days. Too much more urgent patients... they mentioned that it seems like everyone is moving thier lawn today  :ahhh

Nix your other option is the GEC SFO for Smith and Sons "Mudbug" It is a 21 sized lock back Sodbuster It has thinner profile so carries in the pocket better than the fatter Bull Buster. They come in a larger sollecton of colors. Lately they have a pre-order in November. Then the ones that are left go on sale late January or early Febuary. They sell of quickly. Ya need to be on your toes to score one. Here is a link to their Mudbug page.


Signed up for their email announcements.....  :facepalm:


And they have fixed blades.....available......   :facepalm:

Ah, sorry for the delay.  Feeling OK?

I caught the neighbor's kiddo cutting the lawn in flip-flops. Didn't want to see the outcome of that Darwinian trial, so I called his mom and asked if that was the approved footwear for the task....

Mom came flying out of the house about a second later, wooden spoon flashing like a thunderbolt from Zeus's own hand.....  :rofl:

Well done Sir...  :hatsoff:
I'm ok... just... missing the usefulness of my left hand. And thinking about it... they'll have to cut it open again in a few days  :facepalm:

Oh, the x-rays showed some weird scratch marks on the bone  :dunno:

Wow, you got a good cut in there. I imagine the bone will heal fine...as long as this doesn't become a habit with you.......

Day 07
Used the Svörd Peasant mini to cut some robe off the fence as it was pulling it sideways far too much. The rest of the gardening tasks are up to the missus for now...

Oh, it is easy to open and close one-handed  :D  :tu:
This is a solid knife!
