    I've killed 30 since January and have not been out since late March, and at another ranch we use 30+ A DAY was the norm back in 2009-8. Now that's on 7000 acres. The smaller place is 1800. Hunting with night vision is a blast. The hogs hate it.

    Now if I can just train the mailman/UPS/Fedex not to ring the doorbell........
    "feral hogs" - I thought you were talking about us at first.

    You have a great collection! Definitely try some with Res-C handles, such as the Basic 11, SYKCO 511 and others. Welcome to the fun!

    You got Pheasant in Ohio don't you? Upland bird hunting is my favorite! We have lots of feral hogs here in Oklahoma and i have killed my fair share but nothing beats Upland bird hunting with a bunch of your buddies IMO...

    Just wait till my chopping tests commence. It will be 100% not for the faint of heart. I have a full moon coming up and ripe wild plums on the ground at the ranch.....and a Waki that wants to go HUNTING. Perhaps a FBM too and something else.

    Big choppers can cut more than trees. In fact please leave the Oaks alone if possible fellas. I have a thing for hardwood trees.

    Here's a "bit of my work":

    290# Boar


    260# sow


    Video of the guy I'm looking for....

    Oh nice little Swamp Warden just showed up. Makes a nice book mark! Seriously it's tanker grey and I love it. Sould I strip it or get a black one to strip? As cool as a big knife is, I will be carrying this air weight blade with me while hunting. Freaking awesome and light and thin but capable as to blade size. Having seen skeleton knives before I was uneducated as to their appeal. Well now I know!

    B11 should get here next week. BBrown sheaths arrive soon for the Mistress And NMSFNOLE. I'm thinking Mashed for the Warden and SJTAC.

    Finally, getting my hands on a Mr. Mojo. It's been a wild month of collecting! Blade should yield some more goodies. Hell I may even go!

    Yes Tim I have it BAD. I need to get outside and shoot my bows. You kids behave.

    B11 is awesome, since I got mine, nothing else finds it's way camping with me as often, except the swamp warden. You are gonna love the new additions. I also had a thing for Mojo, but it's just not getting used, so I'm getting rid of mine.
