Hmmmmmmmm What's goin' on at the Yard

...But no color selection and thicker stock last time. To me this is a worthwhile endeavor.:thumbsup: Would be even better in thin Elmax with the potential to be a great all-around saltwater blade.

This Mud Mutt needs a comp finish option...

SR101 + comp finish = rust, no?

A pity no black mudder grips just not into any of the rest. Didn't bother this time but if it becomes an option when it's a regular offering I'll be in for 1 or 2 black on black.

I believe the first round years ago was thin version. Then sometime after came a second release in thicker stock. But my thinner ones only came in a light green :-)
 
Will need to keep an eye on corrosion with the high carbon but this is the deer knife I’ve been looking for. Will get one for me and my son.

Scrap and Swamp are the working man’s blades. Can’t beat’em for the money !!

Ouch... It pains me to watch these people "process" these beautiful fish... SO MUCH WASTE.

It's like killing a cow just for the tenderloin... There's so much of the fish that is absolutely delicious if you'd just pay attention...

More than likely nothing there is wasted. The stuff that went into buckets gets churned into pet food & such

Certain cultures will do more with what our culture considers waste. Just like why is it a culture pays Thousands for Shark Fin...When we hook a shark we cut it loose to live another day.
 
Busto, I hope you catch fish as big or bigger in Hawaii!:D:thumbsup: That video reminded me of when we went to Alaska in 1990 and watched them process halibut when the boats came in. Man, they were GOOD!:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Even if we're not talking antiquated delicacies, even with "just" tuna, the head, the collar, oh my goodness... so much awesomeness going on their if you just roast it with some sea salt. So juicy and tender. :D:D:D

And just in general, we grew up eating the whole fish - none of this skittishness about seeing the eyeballs or being able to recognize the fish. (obviously you can't really serve the WHOLE damn tuna .... you're not feeding 20 families at once.) But the idea that even smaller fish like perch or trout HAS to be filleted (and only eat the fillet), and how people fillet creates so much waste that just gets discarded... ugh... breaks my heart. Just gut and scale the thing and cook the whole thing! (roast, bake, grill, sear, etc.)

Yeah, I have friends who can't even eat chicken with bones still attached (wings, etc)... only detached breasts or fillets or nuggets or tenders or whatever. They can't do it 'cause it would remind them it was an animal and once alive... What kind of world are we living in, where people can't, or are unwilling to, connect their foods to the sources? :confused:o_O

If you are just out fishing with a friend or family and bloody the deck with a Tuna this size in Hawaii nothing goes to Waste...Ohana comes into play where the entire fish is divided up for the family...When we take out charters they just want the meat!
