great pics guys.

welp, i didn't get any blood on the serrano (?) out in ohio. only got one shot....aaand i missed. i didn't hit him where i wanted. fortunately, i didn't hurt him....i saw him again a couple days later. pretty bummed about it, but all i can do now is learn from it....i know what i did wrong.

guess that means i actually need to try during the VT season this year.

Y'all are probably getting sick of all the pics of my Serrano. Too bad! I carried her in the canted crossdraw position (~10 o'clock position) all weekend while Pheasant hunting. I was amazed how well it carried like that, and how unobtrusive it was. Never got in my way whatsoever, even sitting in the truck!

She dissected a few birds with ease, removing wings and legs at the joints, and I also used it to filet the breasts off the bone after getting home. It slices really, really well, and the blade shape is just right! I am thoroughly impressed with this little blade, pert near perfect!

A few sunset fence post pics with different camera settings and sun positions:

After dinner on Saturday, socializing with good friends, drinking whiskey and enjoying a nice cigar in the quonset at the farm...

(Yeah, it's a genuine Cuban. Awesome smoke!!! )

Stunning pics!
And yeah, cross-draw is awesome, my preferred method of carry with the Serrano

That happens, always sucks when it does. I hope you have better success in VT!

So far, it's mine too! Completely out of the way there. However, since I usually don't tuck my t-shirt in, I'm still not sure (but I do tuck my shirt in when pheasant hunting, since I'm wearing suspenders that button inside my pants).

I've admittedly not carried a fixed blade much in the crossdraw position, except when I have a firearm strapped to my right side (usually when Elk hunting, and both knife and pistol are strapped to my pack belt).

I use an app called Snapseed on my phone. It's about the quickest way I've found to edit and resize under 500kb. Never Surrender!!!

Caution, Trivial Content Ahead:

I'm the official pencil sharpener for my kids. I would give them a pencil sharpener but I like the illusion of being necessary. I gotta say though, the Serrano is by far the best knife I've ever used to sharpen a pencil. The belly is in the perfect spot.
