Important Info! BeckerWest Fall 2022 Gathering

[SimplyMinded]

Jeez, a guy's dog gets drunk one time and some "incidents" occurred and now no dogs.

 

[FAL'ER]

That's funny. That wasn't what prompted the No Dogs rule though.

 

[Tdhurl1103]

Naw... I'm gonna be grading.
Maybe someone will bring a Daizee knife, tho.

Maybe.

 

[Tdhurl1103]

Maybe.

I gotcha covered Daizee. I'll bring this one out.

Kiradashi bench knife

I think this was a leftover from another 'dashi. It's 1/8" A2, single-side ground and sharpened on the back. Scales are gently beveled 1/8" linen micarta at 360grit. This is something of a quick-finish work knife, completed with only a modest amount of hand sanding.

I didn't want to mess up my perfect BK&T post count but, it is time...

Anyway, I have a couple of Daizee blades that will be coming out.

I got to try one of his XL kepharts a while back - very nice!
I was impressed with how well the 1084 performed at 61RC

 

[Tdhurl1103]

I dont think I'll be bringing any wine this time. That last bottle was gaar'baaage.

 

[Tdhurl1103]

I received 3 boxes today from the good folks at Ka-Bar today!
Can’t wait to see what’s inside once we’re all out at camp!

We know you peeked.

 

[Tdhurl1103]

One thing I'm curious about is, how many throwing knives are going to be lost this time.

 

[Navaro27]

I'm brand new here, but coincidentally only an hour away. Just moved here from Australia 3 months ago. I'm interested, but have a lot of shopping to do before November!

 

[FAL'ER]

Well you are welcome to come and please do fire away with any questions you might have.

I'm thinking of plywood backstop.
That should catch 85% of the misses.

Man I wish this was happening in the Southeast...

All ya need is a location, some bacon, and at least one Becker

Ethan used to do one in the smokies, but then he moved to Montana.
I tried to hold one here in Ks, but wasn't able to get folks to show up. Where in the SE are you?

Florida...I understand why no one wants to camp here though lol

 

[FAL'ER]

Come on out this way. We like Floridians.
