So I finally got out today. it was 90 degrees out and the sun was out, no clouds! I packed up the pack with some bug spray, my nikon coolpix 5400, 12lb trilene big game, fishing pole, tackle box with all my bass stuff and some trout stuff, nestea bottle, my little PSK with a SAK and lighter on the outside (just some med supplies inside & signaling mirror), hand sanatizer both for sanitizing my hands & starting a fire if need be, twine, a 2' piece of flexible steel wire and of course my knife. The knife held up awesome. I used it to cut the bottle to make a fish trap, cut the twine for both the trap and the snare. I made a spring snare trap and found two sticks with nubs coming off of them and carved them to fit snug but slide easy. Sharpened up the stick that goes onto the ground, cleaned up where the twine would go on the trigger. I did some chopping with it, a tree had recently fallen over and i decided to beat the crap out of the edge i thinned out a bit for a better bite, but the blade held up just fine. It somewhat shaved after i was done with it, that oak was pretty hard. I did some prying looking for bait too, but as youll see in the last blurry pic (sun hit as i was taking the pic, wish i could have brought my DSLR, this camera has a manual focus but it's by digital, hard to explain lol) i found a night crawler on the way back. Just how luck goes, huh! The knife stayed clean throughout the use also. Well anyways, here are the pics that do the talkin for the knife better than i do. Still cuts paper cleanly so the edge isnt gone whatso ever, and the tip held up fine. Here's my ugly mug, it was hot!
