Been at a nice market today. One seller had lots of steel and stuff, selfmade knifes and so on. And thingy things for us addicts.

Bought two so called "belgischer Brocken", a nowadays rare stone mined for ages in belgium, grid 8000-10.000  :whistle: used for sharpening razor blades.
https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belgischer_Brocken

One will go with my carving knives, ideal size and grid for keeping them razor sharp.

It’s so weird, but one of the things that makes me happiest in life is when I take a risk on a mislabeled item on eBay and it works out to be even better than I thought it would be. Guy had a climber listed for sale. Could clearly see a partially serrated blade, it was a four layer, and appeared to be in decent shape. So I won the action for $33 and come to find out it was a Rainier in near perfect shape. Did have to change out the scissor spring, but that was no big deal. Made my day.

Hello
In NZ we do not get access to lots of stuff and getting tools is hard sometimes. Fortunately I have family in the US who very kindly act as a storage bank for me.
I then get a package every six months or so so it can an exciting day.  today was such a day.
After having left the States a  month ago it had a side trip to Tokyo en route to  NZ but contents were undisturbed.
A few more LM's to add to the collection.
3Charges, a PST2, a Crunch , A Curl and a few bits and a driver.
A long wait but worth it.
 
 :cheers:

Made my day.
That would make my day, too. (I'm more apt to find a Spartan labeled as a Huntsman!)

A long wait but worth it.
Well worth it, indeed.

Congratulations, gentlemen!

That is an awesome pick-up

This is usually my luck too, but sometimes it works.

I bought a Streamlight ProTac 1L-1AA. I removed the pocket clip and added O-rings to improve grip.

Just showed up, kinda late at 8pm,, but I was really in the mood for some jerky sticks, so I found these being three diff flavors and a pack of 20, yet I’m kinda looking to change my diet a little, rather then snacking on junk and candy so I also looked up some cashews with some flavor and I must say I tried a few and wow, they got some good taste! :drool:

Oh something I’ve been waiting for for like 2months, my snowblower finally came in! I should say 2nd, cause the 1st one disappeared and never got delivered,, so they reordered it and it took just as long, but amazingly it’s here before snow season! Funny thing is I also got oil, normally you get it with new equipment but this one you weren’t suppose to get oil and had to order / buy it separately, which I was going to do once it came in, yet I guess I don’t have to..

Who knows? I mean once I ordered a sak from Amazon and didn’t receive it in over a week and I was suppose to get it in 2day, but didn’t, so they sent another, two days later one showed up on my doorstep, so I was thrilled, needless to say the next day the same thing showed up again, so the wife and I are like huh what did we do? So we contacted Amazon and asked what we needed to do since it was their screw up, and they said to just keep both..
