Man, my old SHBM got clobbered by my FBM. I was throwing them and stuck the SHBM first and threw the FBM which struck the SHBM in the rear with a big clang!!. Now one has a dent in the edge and the other has a nasty little mark on it's butt. A love bite I guess.
 
Well you can fix one very easily while the spinal tap I would just leave as it is. On the up side it sounds like you have pretty good aim!!:thumbup:
 
Is it legal in "Never really know" location to throw your mistress around? Got pics of her battle scars?
 
Ouch!

That's much more noble than my HOGSJTAC's scar --- it came when i totally missed the stump, and it skidded across the gardening stones 10 yards behind the stump... :grumpy:

What you did is a marksman's trophy -- highly sought after in archery :thumbup:

Cool. Seems like a lot of knife to throw! If it wasn't for the blue tag on the laptop, that looks like a b/w photo. You prefer the bead blast over the original finish?
 
The problem is that once you start pounding on a coated blade, the coating wears off pretty quick. The desert coating is probably the toughest, but the other coatings wear off pretty quick, so once they get ugly, I just remove the coating with stripper and then bead blast them. Then later on will hand sand them withfine paper to get a satin finish.
 
That's it. I neeed Battle Mistresses. :grumpy:

(Mistressi? Misstratti? Megalamistresseterria? :confused: )

:D :D
 
BTW, I've done that before with a Ratweiler on a Rat Daddy. Freaking scary when it happens. Amazingly, there was just slight deformation to the tip of my RW and a scratch on the back end of the Daddy.

Man, these blades are tough. :thumbup:
 
and here is a pic of the FBM bead blasted...

That's EXACTLY what I wanna do with at least one of mine. Glad to see someone else do it before I send mine off to SOMEONE to do it. (I assume my local gunsmithy can do it. He's got a blast-hood, yada yada.)

Wow! I likey! THanks, Cobalt!
 
MAybe the dimples aren't as deep as they used to be. We found out it's an issue of the coating sticking versus an effect of heat-treating or something. Heck, if they aren't taht bad, I may just leave it un-beaded. Altho I've got a pre-stripped PD and a green linen/urbangrey SJTAC on teh way that WILL be stripped. So they might get a beadblast. Just for looks.
