I am now in complete and unbridled possession of the greatest of coveted things!!
A foolishly naive individual entrusted me with his DMC re-grind Resilience!
I will never surrender it! I shall change my name and move to a distant third world country! I will pay tens of thousands for cosmetic surgery! I will entire the vilest of criminal enterprises, withdraw, and snitch them all out so that I may enter FBI Witness Protection Program!! Never will I be seen again with the DMC Resilience Re-Grind!
Or...I'll get back together with Brother Blindmouse 2of3 and give it back over lunch with a handshake with a sincere "Thank you!" Whichever is easiest at the moment. He was kind enough to lend it to me so I can enjoy it, handle it, and understand it better. So far I've put an excellent edge back on it and taken a good picture. I am mightily partial to it, though I'll never own it, and that's fine too.

Fat Badger made it home today! It's in 15N20. The handle is an incredible balance of size and comfort. of course, the blade grind is flawless. My daughter is so busy admiring it, I was lucky to get a picture. It's one of the few items in life that meets my every expectation.

Welcome to the weekend! I'm carrying this one as part of Fixed Blade Friday, alongside a Petrified Fish Scholar for Front Flipper Friday, and the most I can tolerate outdoors for Fuente Friday.

That is a pretty darn handsome fixed blade. I got notions of a hunting knife floating in my head these days. Sumpthing like that in the venerated Magnacut or 3V might make an awful decent starting point.
Oh, and the work thing? I'm actually pretty fortunate. I work a minimum of 84 hours a week , but then I have a whole week off. That means if I take leave, I get three weeks off, but it only costs me one! The beginning of that week of work can seem like an awful steep climb, but it's entirely worth it.
In other news, the Fat Badger is no longer mine, but belongs to a certain visually challenged rodent that visits around here. He made me an offer I could not resist. But...it did gain me the precious David Mary Resilience Regrind. Now, I just gotta gather enough pennies for another Fat Badger or three. We will have an entire nest of fluffy badgers in Alaska! It will be great! They'll love it up here due to their extra layers!

Sweet racing kukri type blade made of AEB-L. Really nimble and quick with some wicked bite. Not too thick profile but robust enough for good solid use. Versatile as a cutter and chopper with a well thought out handle and design. A keeper for sure. Well done

Finally found one, like it and it fits the hand well. What I noticed is that the angle of the blade is similar to a kukuri, thus the name I guess, Sirupetite.

I appreciate the offer. Lots of cobwebs in my basement and attic, some paint and wallpaper around the house, bunch of rocks in the garden, and if I can think of anything else I'll let you know. You're a real pal!

I have no issues and thanks for posting it.
This pic is after I’ve applied some coats of mineral oil on the scales of the DM Wharnie and has absorbed. It really makes the Black shine, the OD Green color come out, and makes the white liners and spacers pop more.
This Wharnanimous is awesome! I wish it had a nice S&F sheath for it (and considered it, but the time frame didn’t lend itself very well to it initially). I think it really deserves one. If I do send it to Coleman

at some point, I’m just afraid I may not get it back for copyright infringements
