Random Thought Thread

I watched a few videos and yep wow, they sure do need a lotttt of work!
I am sure i'd kill a few before I got anything of substance.
Maybe I just buy an established one. I saw a few at around the $100 mark
Not quite as impressive as one that sold in Japan for more than $900,000 but it would be a start

 

CA Penal Code 187 is for murder. It’s been mentioned in music and movies for a long time.

 

it's really unlikely I'll ever be back, but I never say never! I appreciate the invite though
the place I rode was on the edge of this big canyon I want to say at the south end of the island. My buddy, Chris, told me it was the most extreme trail. That was about 14 years ago

 

Wow... I just Googled, "Most expensive bonsai ever sold".

$1,300,000

I guess it's understandable, since it's supposedly ~800 years old. That's a LOT of care for a ridiculously long time. After that many generations in a family, I'm actually surprised it would ever be sold.

If you think about it, $1,625/year for tending to it isn't too bad

 

Not styled into bonsai yet but I have several maple seedlings I'm growing with the intent of turning into bonsai!

The closest thing to a bonsai in our plant collection is probably my bonsai-styled Thai desert rose:

 

Pre-orders on the Signature SDFK when???

 

I have a bush but it ain't a bonsai

 

Random thought:

A few years back, I helped a non-hardcore knife guy friend (older), who had been impressed by my Light Chopper land one of his own. He doesn't use it as often as he would like, but he is quite fond of it. He recently told me and some other folks that he would like to be buried with it. I can't think of a better endorsement of the quality of Nathan's work.

(Note: while this friend is older, he is in awfully good shape, and if his family is any indication, burial is still decades away. So don't be planning any grave robbing.)

 

Imagine the archaeologist in 10,000 years.

"Hey, check out this bad a$$ knife I found! Holy chit, is it sharp!"

 

Is there a running list of in-works (DEK, K-18, Boot Dagger, Kephart, etc) and upcoming (SDFKs, what else?) projects? Are there any new chopper/chopper-esqe blades being discussed? Where do I find this info amongst these threads?

 

ask, and ye shall receive

 

Ah, Kali slang! Maybe that one hasn't quite permeated the DMV as much as it has the 213.

 

I've been dreaming of fried chicken all week!
2 more days until the weekend, I've lined up some bacon grease from a reputable source, and I'm going to start the brine tomorrow. Pumped!

 

Moved to the appropriate thread.

 

Been in the DMV since the late 80’s early 90’s, but you had to be listening to Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, Snoop Dog, Tupac and the rest of the West coast gangsta rappers to have been familiar with it. I have you pegged as more of a Captain and Tennille kinda guy......

 

Hey man, if you leave that pic up there, I am gonna be forced to send something wildly inappropriate to Chip in the mail........

 

Is that Mark on her shirt?
