That's right, fellers! I done got lucky!

Actually, I've been deciding for a while between a standard HH and a MOASH to press into duty as a SH user. That process has been brought to a head by Stacy Puckett, who tells me that Dwayne is going to cut leather on my sheath order soon. That means I have to decide on which sheaths I definitely want.

The decision might seem like a no-brainer to some, but I wondered about the MOASH as a chopper because of its width and weight. That sucker is a full 5/16" if it's a millimeter and a little heavier than the HH (1 lb. 11 oz for the MOASH versus 1 lb. 6 oz. for the HH). I wanted to be sure before I started chopping.

Anyway today, I made my decision, set my jaw, and grabbed the MOASH. Took it out for a mild spin on three 2x4's, and it went through them like butter. Still shaving sharp afterwards, of course. I actually think I like the heft of this blade when it comes to chopping. All you gotta do is get it moving in the right direction, and it has some nice momentum when it hits wood.

Dwayne, those pants are coming soon, right?* :D

* Edited to add.... on second thought, maybe I should not mention lost virginity and ask Dwayne for my pants in the same post.

Snakeskin. :thumbup:

I've seen snakeskin in some really nice variations. One of the prettiest was on a tan/snakeskin SJTAC I sold to JohnTheTexican. Gorgeous scales. Maybe he'll post a pic of it. Despite the NO REGRETS rule of thumb, I have to say that I sometimes wish I still had that one, but I let it go when the SJ-TAC LE came out. The LE blade, however, was worth the trade-off. It's one of my favorite blades.
 
:eek: :eek: :eek:

How did that feel??? :D

You know... I run thru the same debate... Wonder about the extra weight of a 5/16" thick blade... After I snagged my 5/16" BBSHSH... I decided that I like the heft of the thicker blade. The BBSHSH is not a user for me, but I do want to get a fatty user!

Now that you've taken that first swing... show us more, show us more!!!

Thanks for sharing the pic!!!

OK... really gotta go... hope everybody enjoys the holiday! Be back Tuesday.
