I think that I just might win "Father of the Year"
I'm thinking of going all Draconian and turning Becker into the BFC equivalent of the BCUSA "Cooking & Water Purification" subforum. I'll just start locking anything related to knives, and the only acceptable thread topics will be stoves, cooksets, or cooking.
Why presents - did you have a birthday you neglected to mention?My family is jewish which generally means gifts of underwear and socks. So, my dad gave me a gift end of last week and it was underwear, pretty standard except I did a little looking into them because there are some "peculiarities" such as this pouch. Turns out though to be WICKED comfortable.

With just a little bit more research and I found out they are like $30 per pair! But oh my glob they are great!
Not birthday. Wednesday is my parent's 37th wedding anniversary. We always celebrate as a family everyone gets gifts for each other. However momma recently got fired for bringing cake and ice cream to work, and my dad is on disability so is on a limited income. As a family we talked about it and decided not to get gifts for each other because there are better uses for the funds, i.e. paying bills. However papa had gotten these much earlier and was holding onto them for the 19th.Why presents - did you have a birthday you neglected to mention?
I hesitate saying this, but I want a pair of those skivvies. They look like a monument to ingenuity, and comfortable as all get out. I actually was trying to come up with something like that for bike shorts, where keeping your junk out of harm's way is of paramount urgency.
mmmm......Leviathan IPA.....I need a birudashi now....
I have no idea what all this talk is about wrecking your balls, but you owe to yourself to get a Birudashi from Daizee.
By the way Daizee, I hope that Harpoon beer that Murph brought over isnt the best stuff they make up your way. :barf:
Thats what you get for walking around with empty pockets all the time and counting on Murph to bail you out.I was excited to see this little jewel when Murph brought it to the shop sunday, whadda cool little piece, and just so you guys know, If you not paying attention when you put it back in its sheath, it will go into your index finger about 1/4 of a inch before it comes to a complete stop. (dont ask me how I know,That thing has got a wicked edge.)
w00t!
Cute little pull on that thing. There's a technique to getting them out while the sheath is still fresh - easy to demonstrate, but hard to type. I should do a video. (I don't do videos - what's the world coming to??) The sheath will loosen a bit as the divot wears in to a comfortable spot. Thanks for the pix!
Definitely not!
Sorry I poked your finger
They are very thin and do indeed require some attention to get 'em covered again.

Fair enough. I just hope he packs a extra pair of pants for you at the next Gathering. :barf:

My birthday is actually in July. Consequentially it's the same day as my mother's birthday.
