...because it's really important to know that I can cut the cheese better, once I have this knife!
And here I was thinking there was no room for improvement:D

I hope to be able to deanimate some waterbottles with the BMG in September in Portland.:thumbup:
 
Sweet link, Tai!:thumbup:
 
Riving wood is a blast!

If you carry a small saw and a chisel, (for mortise and tenon joints), the possibilities are endless.... Riving furniture and accoutrements in the bush is a lot of fun! :)
 
I'm gonna rive me some bridges, teeter totters and skinnies!
Trail Furnishings!!!:)
 
not a bad sushi knife! chopsticks are key:thumbup:
 
Here’s a square tenon, (nice because it won't rotate), on a piece of about 2 inch diameter mesquite. You can either saw in from the sides to create the shoulders or chop in with a baton and the knife, and then just rive off the cheeks. There isn’t much you can’t make in the bush this way,… shelter, bed frame, night stand etc… as long as you have a chisel, (or drill) for the mortise. :)

Lorin, I hope your planing on bringing it to Blade West. I'd sure like to handle it. Nice picture of the black hole.......
 
Things are looking up for the Show, and so long as the border doesn't confiscate them, I'll be bringing a few customs I've acquired over the past couple of years:)
