It doesnt seen predisposed to versatility, also if you go around smacking the crap out of it, it'll eventually break at the seatbelt cutter.
Dodge Omni video was interesting, yea, but again, when it does finally give a little, is 1st to break right where one would expect it to.
I bet if there was a 2 vs Omni video the campanion would still be in one piece lol
Ok first let me get this out there before you do, I have saved up quite a few

WW, I recommend Aldo (newjerseysteelbaron.com, which is a forum supporter), for your steel buying needs.

Another good way to get knife blanks WW is to get your own Murph. Set him in the corner of the shop with a bandsaw, a stack of steel, and a cooler of beer. 8 hours later, you'll be out of beer, the kids will be crying, your wife will be mad, your toilet will be clogged and there will be one blank cut out!![]()
Hmmmm... that's how it goes in my shop too, except I'm by myself and have to buy my own beer. Can I come work for you?![]()
Damn Todd that was cold! Murph prolly got his feelings hurt on that one. LMAO!!!
I did a little Google-fu on the manganese thing and was wondering; does the tungsten improve wear resistance and the manganese makes the steel less brittle? From the 5 minutes I spent on Wikipedia that's the impression I got.
Thanks for taking the time to learn me somethin' new.![]()
Uh...yeah, its a little more involved than that, but basically, higher maganese content equals higher tensile strenth.
And don't worry so much about Murph. His feelings would be hurt if I didn't give him sh!t. He'll be over tonight, I'll give him a smootch and say its from you!![]()
Tell him the Taint Squire still loves him.
As someone who daily fondles Todd's work, I can only encourage you to make it sooner rather than later!
The two is one of those knives I'm not sure I really want. It might just be the meds talking but yeah. I keep seeing it and it doesn't look like something I want but it is something somewhere in my subconcious it keeps saying I need.

Man, I'd love to have a 3. And I will eventually get one, but I'd really dig a junior sized version of the 3. Like about the same OAL length and blade length as the 14 with the width at the handle being about the same as the 11, shorten up the serration area just a hair, 3/16 inch thickness. Can anyone else picture this but me?
Absolutely love Todd's work... Definitely on my "one day" list...
'cause now you won't be forced to use only one blade![]()
I was in the kitchen and decided to rip a big one with my oldest daughter behind me, who is 2 1/2. She loudly proclaimed daddy pooped! Then she tryst to check my butt for poop... That is all

Find your own gig buddy.
Have any of you heard from NJ steel baron recently?
Do I have to? I really don't have the mustache for it!I can't even comment with out getting banned. Todd's got a kiss for you, pretend you're Derek.
Wait, are we sure? I'd hate for it to be like that moose/kilt incident!It's not to be handled by women that are pregnant or nursing, you'll be ok.
Boss has one in a box just like that...Man, I'd love to have a 3. And I will eventually get one, but I'd really dig a junior sized version of the 3.

This is true... That 3 has served me well.I'd say CB has good reasons to trust that BK3. It's served him well as a great rescue tool.
Good evening?
