    Unfortunate incident at Angelo's Steakhouse in Panama City Beach last night. Fortunately, my Boker Action 2 was up to the task of defending me against a large (32oz) animal...

    The animal-




    My Boker in action defending myself against said beast...




    He ultimately won, though I got good licks in!

    I bet those serrations helped in slaying the steak!

    On a sidenote, i see that Angelos Steakhouse does not skimp on the green stuff !

    But hey, potatoes are a vegetable too, right?
    Long live the weasels!

    Angelo's does a steak just about as well as one can be done. I absolutely love the place.

  4. fair warning, plenty of people will be along shortly to complain about you using your personal knife to cut steak.

    I hope that ketchup didn't come in contact with that steak...

    The ketchup never got near the steak...


    The people who complain about my using my personal knife to cut my steak need to notice the word 'my' in this sentence...

    Looks like the steak put up quite a fight but to the victor go the spoils. I know I'm hungry now.

    Edge is still arm hair shaving sharp (Boker AUS8 seems to hold an edge well) Never used the serrations. My wife watched me cut the steak and responded that it looked like a surgeon opening up a patient. It cut through like butter. That's a 32oz steak, btw. VERY thick.

    Steaks are evil, they all must be killed and consumed!! If not zombie hippies will take over the planet!

    I used to EDC a serrated Culloden while I was in Virginia Beach and regularly used it as a steak knife. Only got to use it "tactically" once, but cut dozens of steaks with it. The "knives" they provide at most restaurants are so dull they won't cut anything and the serrations are rounded off from being scraped across plates thousands of times. The serrated Culloden is one of the best steak knives you can get . . . or could get, since they've been discontinued for quite some time.

    I love how you have your "big" knife stuck in the middle of your steak while taking a picture. Im sure you got some weird looks lol. Im from Texas and I would feel all the eyes on me if I did that.

    Love seeing knives in "use" like this. I would bust out some nutella spreading photos with some of my blades, but my latest ones on file are with traditional knives. Not very tacticool . Anyway, great photos man; I love threads like these.
