Funny you should ask. I have been neglecting some yard work so I got the Howler out this afternoon for a mild work out. Up 'til today it has sat in the drawer for a couple weeks.

Got out the RT and opened a bag of feed and a package of steaks. I love this knife. :thumbup:

Must be something in the air......I launched a 3 blade assualt on a menacing pine stump in my yard.....First in was the BBPTBR doing the most damage then came Bravo team which consisted on a Full Flat Grind RD9 and broke in my Mud Razor on it....all in all I gave that stump hell and wore the coating off the tip of the MR. Might launch a second assualt tomorrow with pictures.

I got my M6 this week, the edge wasnt too ground down from sharpening as I suspected, it was mostly the black coating that was worn off from sharpening by the previous owner.

I decided it was time to strip off the coating (very simple and quick process), now I'm in the process of polishing the blade out (it was very rough looking under the coating). The polishing is gonna take a lot of time but I think it'll be worth it once completed. With the work week coming up, I prolly wont be done until next weekend, I'll post some pics when done.

Glad it came out OK, merc. I was worried for'ya on that knife.

I fondled my HR. Does that count?

A friend stopped by, and so I had to break out the Pork 'n Cheese and show off my small accumulation of Wauseon Goodness. . .!!

I cut an orange with my Mud Razor hehehe, not exactly hard use, but I did break it in on a couple of branches while out hiking yesterday..

Used my RS II to:

1)cut up the priority mail box it came it to make a temporary sheath
2)sharpen a stick to poke holes in the aluminum foil we were grilling hamburgers on
3)used it to seperate dollar store fudge stripes that had fused themselves together in stacks of 5 when they got hot and melted
4)stuck it in the picnic table, that always makes me smile

All I did was take my Battle Rat and Bog Dog out and look them over, polish them up, and put them away. Several weeks ago, I did use the Battle Rat to take down a 2ft high stump. Not as fun as dragging them out with a tractor, but still had a good time!

 

[Gravelface]

A buddy of mine knows I really like knives, so as a good gesture he bought me one.........a CRKT first strike.......don't lash me...I didn't pay for it, but I will break it tonight, That damned stump is BACK in my yard.

 

[silenthunterstudios]

Didn't Steve Corkum make those? I didn't see his name mentioned in the page on CRKT. Anyway, with 440A steel, your friend might feel bad when you bust the knife in half, and he'll buy you a new one .

 

[Gravelface]

Maybe a better one......like a rat of sorts, but I don't think I have that good of friends.

 

[Gravelface]

Surprisingly it is holding up nicely........till it went to battle with th Mud Razor. The FS has quite a nick in the blade where the MRs edge you can barely feel it.
I need a good Camera this is fun....I am enjoying trying to break a blade.


It just went to battle with a Railroad spike...pictures later

today I ended up using the hell out of my bandicoot and my M6. Cut some metal wire,metal core clothes line,an old bookcase to burn,wicker furniture,lots and lots of cardboard,chicken breasts for dinner,and then resharpened them both. Now am usinging the bandicoot to cut a carb for my beers. I havent drank heavy in a while its time to. Rode the cycle upto the liquor store and bought a 30 pack and stuffed the cans in my sadddlebags.

 

[Eric Isaacson]

Unfortunately I haven't been spending enough time outdoors so I've had very little time to use my Rat's lately

 

[Schuey2002]

I took my M6 out and split up a bunch of 2x6s in the yard..

I had to put at ease the thought of this Rat snappin' in two. Ha! Not gonna happen!! :thumbup:

 

[Eric Isaacson]

I took my M6 out and split up a bunch of 2x6s in the yard..
:

I guess I did also hammer my M6 through a treated 2 x 8 and then hammered the tip into it and pried it out.

Just got done thawing out a whole pork loin. Going to cut it into pork chops with my bandicoot here in a minute.
