Only occasionally!Ahh man Does buffing effect final result that much.
To combine the city vs. rural uses, I made it the best crossover I could, maintaining the traditional feel!! Opinions may vary!! You are certainly entitled to yours!!Looks good, but I have to ask, wouldn’t the sheep’s foot blade be infinitely more useful in the city than the spey blade?
Of all the blades of a stockman to omit, my preference would be to see the spey gone and add a second sheep’s foot or coping blade.
I can understand the lines flow better without the sheep’s foot standing proud, but to call it a city stock whilst retaining the only blade designed for country chores like castrating critters makes me scratch my head a bit.
Good question!!! No-one has seen it done yet!!![]()
No, just egalitarian!!Will these be numbered?
Wow!!! Jigging techniques, and the formula for Coca-Cola!! Both deep trade secrets!!And with Randy set to retire at some point soon, I wonder if hes beginning to pass the secrets to William![]()
You may need to castrate your dog or cat in the city. Everything is more expensive now, including veterinarians.Looks good, but I have to ask, wouldn’t the sheep’s foot blade be infinitely more useful in the city than the spey blade?
