Wow! That's a pleasant surprise. I didn't think it was that good. A big thank you to the judges (your checks are in the mail). I'll send that PM shortly.
:rofl:
In the mail... :tu:

After Fuzzy's failed attempt at cutting the cheese I thought I'd see how the #43 would perform .

Having a light lunch as its hotter than smurf today.

A nice Vermont Sharp cheddar and wheat thins with some carrots and fruit.

The Trapper had no trouble cutting the cheese  :tu:
Nice photo and yummy’s  :tu:

Day 18


GEC #43 and a Camillus #72


Used the #43 to trim back some bushes that were overgrowing onto the path on my morning walk.

Sorry didn't get an action pic.

Day18

Love this problem child GEC 54, after the very minor rounding at the tang and keeping blades opened for a month, the pull is still a very firm 8-8.5(a little better than the 9 before, 10 being welded shut).  I gonna followed what Dean did, to ever so slightly thin out the tang(maybe a 3-5deg inclination), so the initial pull could be lessen.  What do you all think?

I think that would help immediately.
Just take precautions to protect the liners  :ahhh

Well done, Steve.  :tu:

Perhaps Fuzzy should recall the old adage about the workman not blaming his tools.  Just sayin'.......  :dunno:

Day 11 for me

Not much use for the folder today. Painting a bathroom, so needed screwdrivers and pliers, but no knife. Beauty shot only.
