New Case fixed blade, some fire starting

My girlfriend gave me a Case Drop Point Hunter for a surprise present! It's pretty sweet, being a Case and all, and came in a nice sheath. I don't have a lot of stainless steel fixed blades, so it's nice to broaden my collection. :cool:

The scales are texturized orange g-10, and the texture is very sharp and grippy. Can't wait to try it with winter gloves on. The blade came sharp as the dickens, as the large bare patch on my left forearm will attest. It just sweeps hair away.:D

It helped in the fire prep, alongside the Case

While the fire got going and my tea water heated up, I found some tall stumps to attack. Last year's wind storm left lots of fallen and broken trees in this patch of woods.

Thats a sweet Hawk, and the nice is quite nice as well!

Fort Turner Hawk? NICE!!! Case knife is cool too.

Yeah, it's a ton of fun. It's my first hawk, made my KR Johnson, a maker here on the forums. It's his "French Hawk." :thumbup:
