Holiday weekend so they are likely short staffed and unmotivated.

Holiday weekend not needed for ...

Well, you know.

Checked to see if I would need to file a Canada Post ticket, but I see it is out for delivery SharpBits

 

[SharpBits]

It magically jumped from Chicago Customs to Florida with no update in between.

 

[SharpBits]

They are making me wait for it. Usually the mail gets delivered before 4PM.

Will it... maybe... possibly... arrive safely?

Will it... maybe... possibly... arrive safely?

I wonder. There was a massive rain storm a couple of hours ago. I hope all that steel didn't sink the postal truck!

 

[David Mary]

My machete would help balance the truck.

 

[SharpBits]

There was a sighting, but he's way behind.

 

[SharpBits]

It arrived safe and sound with its two little buddies. When I saw the box, I said “hmm…shorter than I thought!” Then when I pulled it out of the box, I said “ah, it’s just right!” The handle is perfect, grippy enough, but not so much to raise blisters with actual work. Fits my hands well and looks great to boot.

Pictures at a later point, too dark here now and indoor pictures in a messy office would not do it justice.

Very pleased!

 

[David Mary]

The boxes I use are bigger on the inside.

 

[SharpBits]

It’s not the first time that has happened to me. Boxes looking smaller than their contents, that is.

 

[SharpBits]

Still hot, still rainy, so I have not had a chance to let it out and play. Maybe this weekend it will be nice enough to do some brush clearing. Maybe.

 

[SharpBits]

Today was a no go. Doing yard work when the heat index is 100+ is no fun. Did the boring stuff only. Sadly that did not involve the Barax.

 

[David Mary]

Your time will come.

He’s right, I tested mine at work the first week I had it chopping on some pallets, worked great but actual work didn’t happen until this year, balance and durability are awesome. Pretty good looking as well. Enjoy sir.

Thanks for the kind words Bob! And everything you said applies to your knife as well.
