Mug Shots

[DocArnie]

Last vacation in the blackforest. Unshaved, badly in need of a haircut.

More Canucks posting...

KGD - this is your life (well I just scanned in a bunch of shots today and thought I throw some up). At 38 years of age, in my day it wasn't so fashionable to raise children on breast milk. So like many Canadians my age I was bottle fed:

At age of 5 I found a passion for pistols and wide brimmed hats, but still wasn't weaned from the bottle yet. I did however, graduate from Canadian Lager to Labatt's Blue. (I'm the shorter one)

I still like wide brimmed hats.

My first winter overnight winter camping trip when I was 17. I'm the goof in the blue hat.

Really, they just took me along because I would cut up all the firewood.

In the eighties you could get away with wearing red pants.

I'm not in this shot - but these guys were my outdoor's mentors...

HighDesert, thank you but see all that red piping? That means I work for a living. Thus, no "sirs." Also I'm not in anymore, but thank you for thanking me; I just did my job was all.

I realized you're not in anymore feday. The term "sir" was just intended as a gesture of respect for service rendered. Semper Fi :thumbup:

You win the oldest WSS member award Swoop! :thumbup: Feel free to post your pic whenever you figure it out. You just barely edged me out. My boots only have woolly mammoth and saber tooth cat poop on them. Nothing at all from the Cretaceous period.

Email or PM your mailing address to me and I'll get this mora in the mail to you. It's the #S-1 by Frosts on Ragnar's site. The blade is laminated carbon steel, and has an RC hardness of 61-62. I've never used it for anything except slicing paper, but I have sharpened it a bit to refine the edge.

Congratulations!

I got the getting older knife from HighDesertWalker. Now I see for myself how sharp these knives are. I practiced making fuzz sticks from some birch. The shavings were so thin that they only had one side. Bill -Thank you for the knife.
