is it just me, or does the new EK short drop point look like a smaller kephart blade?
and the short clip could be a stunt double for the BK17 with a straight grip.
 
Garage, the final frontier; these are the voyages of the man cave 'Bloody Knuckles'. It's five year mission to explore strange old junk, to seek out new space and new off duty hobbies, to boldly go where no woman has gone before!

I may have a celebration, 🥲 it's gonna rain Monday...
 
My wife was helping a friend clean up her house to prepare for guests and was tossing five area rugs. Rather than dump them, I took them home and began power washing them with heavy duty cleaner and laundry detergent.

They ended up coming out pretty good, and after some research found they were retailing between 250 to 400 dollars each.

I will find them good homes to some folks who don't have that kind of disposable income.

One man's trash....

What's wrong with carpet left over sections?
The ones I have been working on were really, really dirty. The dirt here is filled with iron, so it stains everything red. A lot of wealthier folks just toss out stuff that a lot of less wealthy folks can afford. I found a 4 stroke Honda weed trimmer at the dump that someone put two-stroke mix in. Obviously it did not run right, so I took it home, cleaned it up, flushed it, and it was good to go. Found it a good home.

Here is another one I did today. You can kinda see the before/after.

On a different note. Anyone ever use stump killer? I have a bunch of Neem trees that keep popping up that I don't want. I keep cutting them at the ground, but they keep popping back and I got tired of the pickax method. The roots are deep.

I painted a seven inch stump today with some stuff that is labeled for it. I am curious on how long it will take, and if I will still have to dig out the roots.
 
Stump killer is usually tordon (blue or green liquid). After the stump is dead, you still need to drill it out and pour stump rot (often pure potassium nitrate AKA saltpetre) in, then wait a year.
Otherwise, yeah - you still need to chop out the roots.
