How much snark could a snarksnark snark if a snarksnark could snark snark?

So? You should have left the box on the floor of the living room and ran outside to cut stuff while your wife stands by the back door scowling. Shame on you.
 
Some of you might remember that I recently gave my brother in law my BK15. Well. He effing loves it. He's stripped it, convexed the edge and put a really cool vinegar and Mayo patina on it (yes, mayo), braided up a cool little leather lanyard and is going to stipple the scales this arv then add some stainless hardware. Nothing special to you guys, I know, but this dude had never seen a Becker before I gave it to him, has no idea this place exists, has only chefs knives (he's um.. a chef) and I mentioned nothing to him about ways to modify it. Which I think is pretty dang cool.

I recently received the kydex sheath I won from Trailbum (thanks Jase, it's friggin beautiful!) so I'm going to send that down to him so he's got a custom sheath to go with his now customised 15. Think I'm going to add a large TekLok to it for him.

Again, I know what he's done isn't anything ground breaking but I'm super proud that I've spread the Becker bug and even prouderer he took creative initiative with it. The end.
 
Can't even meet women in this town to begin with, let alone get in a relationship to get dumped. Besides, all you married guys ever talk about is how to get the ol' ball-n-chain to let you buy the next new toy. Meanwhile, I'm buying guns and knives and going off in the woods and playing video games whenever I want. I think ya'll is jealous. :)

With a tear rolling down my cheek, I confess, you are correct good sir. I wanna buy p!ss loads of guns. And more knives. Dang I'd just like one gun. And more knives. Dude I'm coming to hang out with you for a while. You got it goin' on..

Not me. My wife likes knives almost as much as I do. ;) She loves the great outdoors too. You just have to find the right one is all. :thumbup:
 
Sometimes I get jealous of all the freedoms of single men. But then I realize how awesome I have it with my wife and no longer care. I still get toys, just one per year... At the same time I get an awesome family. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. Whichever side your on is the better one ;)

Glad your bro likes his knife Springy. I think my brother in law will be getting one for his birthday.

But a bit more clear epoxy will fill in any flaws in the final shape. That's what it's made of, anyway. Doesn't stabilized wood carry the same risk?

Yeah pretty much. I've used epoxy or CA glue in the past... it just bugs me. Anyway I'm pretty pleased with it so far... got it at BLADE from ShadeTree laminates... he's a member here and makes all kinds of cool stuff including various "micarta" type scales with Glowy stuff mixed in the resin. :)

This :)

In other news, Ang recently discovered that since the price of eggs at the grocery store has gone up again, it's the same price (or sometimes a bit cheaper if you bring them old cartons to re-use) to get them farm-fresh from local producers. :thumbup: So check that out locally... but be warned, once you get used to "real" eggs, the bland tasteless ones from the big chain stores will never seem good enough to you.

Gonna goof around in the yard a bit, take Sabbath to a park on the water and have a picnic, and ship a couple knives. Possibly build a fire in the pit tonight. I don't know "exciting" any of that stuff is, but we like it ;)

Mostly just straightening up around the apartment and trying to finish editing the BK4 video. Tomorrow though I'm going out shooting with a couple dudes and one of them just got a Barrett .50, the other is into old antique firearms. His favorite is his "broomhandle" Mauser pistol with detachable stock. Not sure if he's going to bring it but I sure hope so.
 
My exciting plan is to get a nap when I get home from work! Then take the kids to the park when I wake up!

Big party today. Our welcome home party, housewarming party, daughter's belated birthday party.. all combined. 50 something people on their way.... Its raining like a bat out of hell and lighting is the only light poking through the clouds.... Going to ruin some plans for the day if it doesnt clear up soon. Is what it is i guess, good thing the grill is under a pavilion, father already started grilling.. Just doing hamburgers and hotdogs.... BUT.... 100 hamburgers and 100 hotdogs...

But right now the highlight of the weekend so far is finding Black and Tans in walfarts. :thumbup:

Helped my father build a kayak rack this morning. Holds 6 kayaks. Pretty cool the way he did it. Ill get pics later.

Stay busy round here. Got 3 shades darker in 2 weeks HAHA!! Need to invest in SPF 1500 or something :D
