Some lobsters and a Harpy

I like the serrated hawkbill for cutting rope. The stainless handle was pretty slippery. I had a Tasman around here somewhere but I misplaced it during a move and would like to eventually get ahold of an H-1 Spyderhawk but right now every cent I have is tied up in the business.

The big lobster in the pic was oversised and released. It was around 5 or 6 lbs I think. I would guess it around 25 years old.

If you like the weight and heft of the Harpy, maybe you need to find one of these:

A G10 Harpy. I have problems holding the SS Harpy when it gets wet or slick, but have no problem holding onto this one. (But this one is mine! :D)
 
Bohica- out of my price range, especially now :D I still haven't found a better folding knife to use on the boat than the Cara Cara Rescue serrated. It is prone to some rust but the serrations are as perfect as I have ever used and the long sheepsfoot blade is optimal for my needs.

Hmm, have you looked into the G10 Byrd Crossbill? Basically a Spyderhawk-sized hawkbill, but being a Byrd, it may fit your budget better than a Spyderhawk. Just a thought.

we can keep anything between 3 1/4 inches to 5 inches carapace length. Larger lobsters lay more eggs and produce hardier offspring.



Yeah buddy we bought it in february. :) Still trying to get off the ground.
