Just curious but what do you do for work?

Used to work in security. Nothing crazy or ninja secret squirrel stuff. Also I saved every penny since age 8. Made some investments. Wife didnt like all the travel I had to do so she made me retire. Since I traveled for work most of my adult life I never spent much money. Did some other things, but wife said I made enough to retire so I did. Then we got this house and land to have a dog sanctuary. She still works from home...corporate thing i dont understand..lol!
I take care of the critters and everything else. We are financially secure,but these are our last rescues. We want our time,but will always have 1 dog!

The world is so much better with animals in it.
 
Its rewarding and aggravating at times....lol! We budget well and occasionally treat ourselves. No debt. So no real complaints!
Other then the wife controls my money now....lol! I was proven irresponsible with money...lol! Id have my Beating Heart and atleast 4 other busses in the way and David making sheaths...lol!
My wife is really awsome and somehow tolerates me? She is the reason even when single I worked hard and saved! It was 100% worth it all!

It really is! My days are pretty fun and entertaining! Or they decided to revolt like today! Gutted a couch cushion while I was out and wife was in virtual or something meeting....lol!
So dont get me wrong! This isnt a sob story! We financially prepared to do this! We knew we would make personal sacrifices!

where can i sell boss jacks?
I might be interested in boss jacks, whatcha got? Grab your membership and shoot me a message. There is also a section under 'knife exchange' then 'for sale by individuals' then 'busse/swamprat/scrapyard knives for sale' where you can list them once you have a gold membership.
 
Got out and stripped the Rodent Solution, Retriever, Rodent 3,Desert Patrol,and 511.
Didnt go crazy polishing them,but I think I cleaned them up well especially for users.
Now my TRASH 2 must have ceracoat or something else on it? That coating just doesn't wanna come off! It was a multicam pattern from the factory. I will get it off....just not sure how.
Used Kleen Strip. Works great. The black coatings were the easiest!
Ill get some pics up today at some point.
 
The Retriever and Desert Patrol really impressed me before I removed the coating. Now im super impressed! They were pretty clean after the coating was off.
I only used 1000grit steel wool,350,grit wet/dry sandpaper and 400 grit sandpaper. Couldn't find my green scotch bright pads which really annoyed me! I also didnt wet sand like normal just dry sanding. I also have many lower/finer grits of sandpaper, but couldn't find them all and again had to remind myself of the time and effort it takes to do by hand and these are users!
 
Looking good PB.
