Meat knife?

Soft Behemoth-er? Asking for a friend...

Quench in 130-140°f water for an hour per inch of thickness, then temper on a HOT grill for a minute per side

Delta bacon?

FFG LC?

The grind on that LC looks like the left side of the Potato Knife.

Local grocery store visit #4 since lock down. Fully stocked with everything minus butt-wipes.

Mrs Gravelface actually was excited when I bought a Mosin the other day. I believe she may have contracted something....

I hate and I mean REALLY HATE it when the PA posts and topics filter through the Site's front page but to each his own. I'm not the owner or anyone in the powers that be hierarchy so fudge me

Any way, I just saw a post in the PA quoting the famous and always misquoted and even more misrepresented Ben Franklin quote regarding giving up one's liberties for safety. When I see that, to me it's like waving a red flag to an old yet raging bull. I really had to restrain myself from making a comment because I had promised myself to never, ever partake in that bizarre corner of this Site again but now I just have to make my vent somewhere, LOL.

While it is true that Ben Franklin had written something to that effect, the manipulators either often bend the actual context or are just purely contextually ignorant. Now I am not going to go into a loonie filled rant about it because real scholars have actually delved into this and can present facts much more eloquently based on Franklin's letter as a VA legislature when he wrote words to that effect, so please feel free to Google and decide for yourself.

Spoiler alert: the gist of Franklin's letter was for defending PA's General Assembly in their dispute with the Penn Family over paying increased taxes which in return the Penn family was pushing the then PA Governor to veto any such legislation. It had nothing to do with government trespassing into an individual's life/homestead and the purpose of the higher taxes were for the purpose of fortifying the frontiers in the French / Indian wars! So in fact it turns out that Franklin was literally taking about increasing taxes on behalf of a collective for the sake of extra safety & security of that collective.

Ah, that felt good

Oops, one PA stands for Political Arena and the other for the State of Pennsylvania. An honest double-entendre in here, LOL.

There's a third P.A. which is just a huge pain in the D

Where did you find a Mosin?

 

[Mike157]

Here I was thinking that the wife was getting excited over a Mosin Nagant. That would be a very special wife. Mike

$400 with 500 rounds of ammo. Lady Gravelface was more interested in this than my normal Fal-fair. Caught me off guard actually.

My 3rd mosin, sad to say this is the first 7.62x54r ammo I’ve ever gotten....so far. 2 M91/30s and a Finnish M27. 1 1896 receiver so....technically it’s not even a firearm. 2 are Hex, 1933 Finn and 1930 and last Russian 1943.

the blade looks really wide...

 

[Brian77]

wtf is that?

See Don Hansons meat carvers. Also think boning / Fillet and a 8 to 10 inch classy western style meat cutter. . 100 thick approx and a pleasure to cut ribs, pork bellies, big fish steaks and brisket. The racing light chopper turned into a kitchen / or meat bench knife.

If we are calling dibs then I am in for the folder and DEK1. Still wish I could justify a HDMC. It’s just a hunk of super sharp badass steel, but I’m going stay content with my BC.
