So you made a tiny copy of a dollar bill to make it LOOK like you have more steel than you really have?

Jeez that's a lot!

ya that's what i have heard about O2. i hear it looks amazing with L6 as the O2 does not have any chromium and also that its hard to find as thy don't make it in the us any more.

that s7 is kinda pricey... have you tried it in a knife ...

i have had many people try and talk me out of my l6. So far no one has been able to. As for the videos. Thanks. now that the shop is set up i will be re doing them. i also will get bubba doll to film it so we can good angles.
 
Just so you know where you're heading with this...

I started accumulating a lot of heavy stuff when I was in my 20's. The first time I moved, friends came out to help (not realizing what they were signing up for). The second time, family still came out. The last time, I had to hire help...
 
JT...I think Nathan is right. If you keep collecting all this useless junk you're bound to end up in a bad place. First you lose friends. Then family won't come visit....next thing you know you've died in your house but nobody can find the body under all of the "stuff" you've accumulated over the years. It starts with steel, then old newspapers, collector glasses from Burger King, used cat food containers...you know, things you "might have a use for someday". Let us help you. Send me that O-2...you don't really need it. I want to help. I have a place I can safely dispose of it before it harms you... :)
