Hard Use & my Lessons for the day

It's really not about being cheap, it just happened that the one that felt best in his hand just happened to be the cheapest one that he used.

A Good Fixed Blade is really hard to beat in a good high wear steel and they aren't cheap.

Most folders today are over designed to look cool, but they just plain suck for any real extended use without gloves.

Usually the cooler they look, the less useful they are for any kind of real work.

I second what you said. Some of the folders I see out there are just ridiculous looking.
 
Pheasant ... now there is a topic worthy of its own thread, chapter & sight! I'm a pheasant aholic! Love them things. As to letting them hang till the tail falls off... no thank you. Clean them in the field, bone them that night, soak in salt water over night & cook as desired... Nothing better.

Cow was a herford. Breed when she was 2... mistake # 1 in my mind. Don't know what she was breed to, this herd was an "almost rescue" situation, guy knew they were trying to force him out of the business so he short sale to my friends. They were not quite as big as should have been, but far from starving.

Best method for handling a prolaps or the most common method seems to me to have varied in the different parts of the country. Known some who get the prolaps stuck back in and then turn it into a feeder never to be breed again. Some pop & leave lay (but that is more big country). Seems that there are not many seriously worried about bloodlines anymore, but those who tracked each critters family line, may give it a second chance... depending on the $ into that line.

God Bless,
