Pocket dump in the back of a 2008 Honda CR-V, with a Victorinox Hunter Pro Alox.
 
I saw that, you get it fixed?🤣

Haha. Yea we got it. I had a leak in my basement a little while back, went to the main shut off on the wall to turn it off and the handle broke off on the ball valve. Water shot out like coming out of a fire hydrant. Made a beeline to the well house to shut it off. Wasn’t a very good night
 
Tweaking the neck and shoulder is not good. Hope that wonderful looking Carmel colored liquid helped take the edge off.
Luckily all good now. Good thing because Mon morning means the daily pull/push-ups must begin anew. And yes it did help indeed, I find like many things in moderation it can work wonders ;)
A lot of color popping!
Hard to beat Coltrane!
Thanks! And I'm not sure that anyone has. But to be honest I'm not sure if anyone ever beat Bach in the first place
Talk about rich, saturated colors! 👍❤️⚔️
It's hard to believe that I started out in the hobby only liking black knives. On the bright side (🥁-tsh) I rarely loose knives when I set them down these days (though I still misplace plenty) 🤣
Good song reference there! Man your pics always lack in colors and detail….joke 👍🏼😁
I must admit 've never been accused of blending in, even wearing camo 🤣

It's either that one or another favorite song reference, "Sunday Morning Coming Down". I actually start out many a Sunday listening to that one.
Love the matching lanyards. You make these yourself?
Many thanks! Yea, I do them. Nothing special honestly, especially compared to some of the work in the lanyard thread here. Mine are mostly snake knots with the occasional diamond knot thrown in when I'm feeling up to it. If you dig them I fully encourage you to jump in feet first and give it a go 👍

With the beads I post on lanyards from time to time; some of the Ti ones I anodize myself, but I buy plenty as well, and some are repurposed items never intended to be knife beads.

Highlight of the day for me, harvesting some Cauliflower Mushrooms to make some soup tonight. Was carrying a Matt Bailey fixed blade today. Cool knife. The handle is beautiful and very big. Fits my hand well, but does require that you hold it a certain way.

It did a fine job harvesting the large mushroom though.

Got them cleaned up and bagged them for later.

Started a bone broth with some marrow bones out of the freezer.

Then caramelized some Vidalia onions, cut up the mushrooms and sautéed them with the onions for a few minutes. Added the bone broth once it was ready and let it cook together for a while. Turned out very good. Doesn’t look great, but it does taste good. These mushrooms are interesting since they don’t get mushy cooking like this. They hold their texture, almost like a good egg noodle in the broth.

This Matt Bailey knife is awesome. Very sharp and awesome looking wood for the grips. Couple close up shots of the grips:

Mushroom identification is a skill a lot more of us should learn. I've lived almost my entire life in the rainforest and I'm still at the "every mushroom is edible once" stage of mushroom identification.
