With enough chocolate, matzah isn't bad at all. Sea salt and dark chocolate in this batch!
Not far from chocolate-covered pretzels, which is what Fatty Sundays makes most of the year.
But straight matzah... what a pain. And it crumbles if you try to improve it.
Which is why one has matzah ball soup. Bacon-wrapped matzah balls FTW.
Some of us are pretty bad stewards of our ethnic heritage. "But bacon tastes gooood" --Vincent

i saw a recipe for crab cakes where you basically mix lump crab with the magic sauce and *crackers*. mmm. crackers are a bit course, and the cakes are about the size of baseballs. deep fry... looked good. might even taste good with matzah. sacridelcious blue cheese on the side?

Gumball city. Crappy phone photo. I rake towards the center of the yard, as you can see. The other side of the sidewalk has a bunch too, although not as bad. 23 yard waste bags full:

wow, that's a lot of suck

Heading out for a day trip to see old friends
and some family . My lovely wife asked just what I have on me ? So I took inventory
3 knives
2 guns
1 Extra magazine for my Glock
1 lighter
1 flashlight
1 pen
Keys, wallet and phone
22 a day bracelet
Plus my just in case bag and cane that are in the car
I think I have it covered

It was. Bitch of it is, the yard is covered with them again. Not as bad of course, but there's a lot. Lawnmower sounded like a popcorn popper yesterday, haha. Mowed for the first time of the year.

Looks like I'll be getting a Skrama delivered today.

Fit and finish are nothing to write home about, but I can tell I'm gonna love it:

It ain't pretty, but it works

I have no doubts, it feels great in hand. It won't look too good once I use her anywhos.

Garage door install, ... DONE. Two guys, pros albeit, took 2 hours & 15 minutes.
The cleaning and prep had to happen first though, that was my part.

Congrats! Love the looks of the blade a lot . The handle would be my only concern, durability wise .

Been adding to our little farm setup. Just got our first goat, and another 3 coming on Monday.

Thanks man. The handle seems durable enough.

whatever the compound they're using is, it's pretty durable.

"fit an finish nothing to write home about"?

what?

it's a maked, as forged, no paint, clean finish, smoother than many knives that have their paint removed.

the leather sheath is best in class imho.

what could they do better?

the rubber like handles are artic tough.

overall, a good value.

There is paint on the blade, and that's what I was talking about. I thought it was oil, but it wasn't. Doesn't really matter, as I'lll beat the dog snot out of it anywhos. The way the knife itself is made is great. Sheath feels good, but the leather on the strap is thin. I'm sure it'll function okay. Been wanting one for some time, and they're getting ready to raise their prices, so I took the plunge.

i have a few of their knives, love them. the "black finish" isn't really feeling like a paint to me. i guess you'd call it an "as forged finish"? it's not unlike parkerized in feel, but it's VERY smooth. no thickness.

 

[The Warrior]

That's true, it is thin. Like I said, not that big of a deal, but when I see other's new Skrama, it looks more finished than mine.

 

[1066vik]

I always thought it was just the blackening left over from HT. (AKA "forge finish")

 

[daizee]

Love me some forge finish.
