Oh mini sus scrofa, how I love thee...
Just a shout out to my sus scrofa - she may be a running joke around these here parts, but so far I love this little dark horse.
Used my SS for the first time over the weekend putting in a deer fence upstate - it was that nylon chicken wire type stuff and my sus scrofa worked like a champ at cutting sections of the fencing, cutting rope and slicing branches out of the way so I could staple the fencing to the trees.
The little ugly really performed well - used it all day long and handle is very comfy, weight/balance is good and I really like the choil and contouring at the top of the blade - excellent for choking up. Thought it might be tricky to sharpen back up, but the sharpmaker worked like a charm on the curve.
For me, the SS ranks up in my Busse top three next to my CG ASH and HG55...
Sure she may not be the best at slicing carrots, but why does this honey appear to get so little love?
