Great picture Jason, it looks like I see a couple that might be going Vince's way.

JC there is my pruner shadow there at the top of the screen. I sent it back to Rick,so he could evaluate it,after a hard field use. I used it,while clearing a path for an Eagle Scout's project.He put a trail in the forest at a nearby bird sanctuary. I found myself waaay down away from my truck,running my DR mower,clearing brush. I needed some vines & branches cleared (overhead annoying stuff) & it was the only hand tool I had. It really cut some pretty thick vines coming down from trees in the woods,pretty good. It has great cutting power.I used it in a manner that may be considered abusive,a little & it heald up great. Most of the stuff I cut was up to almost an inch thick,but soft green/new growth.It was like having a folding machete in pocket. It did real well.I put a lower polish on it by hand,than Rick delivered it at Blade with. It's a heck of a hard working pattern.

This looks like it might be the swayback in the photo above:

Hey Vince,
I thought we might have seen that one before, but I couldn't tell if it was from the Blade Show batch or another new one. I'm sure Rick is happy to see it getting some use.

Rick,
Skiing the powder at T-ride in a mankini last winter. I thought you wore one as well when grinding?
