What? A bunch of Yankees doing the test? What do Yankees know about messing around in the woods?


Just kidding - I am from the Southern Tier of NY, and I spent a lot of time wandering the fields, hills, and woods, and backpacking and canoeing in the Adirondacks. But I have lived in the south now longer than I lived there.

Is there a deadline to sign up?

 

[marthinus]

This has been a great thread to follow.

As long as you can make the knife by November 20th, you are more than welcome to join. All you have to do is got to the other thread, read the first post and say "I'm in"

I wonder if it is going to hit 20 people. That is a lot of knives to be testing

I'd curtsy for you but I've got a case of the Miller Mudslides and the strain would fill me panties.

She's got purty handles. Good looking blade. :thumbup:

 

[tonym]

That's a serious looking knife Scott! I realy like the handle and have always like spear points!
I can't wait to get her dirty!!

 

[kgd]

Thats very nice Scott. Looks like a kephart bred with a Canadian but the kephart had the dominant gene for the blade shape. Then you went and put a sensible handle on it! Looks great!
