Traditional Knives & Slingshots

That one should be named Candace. If I'm remembering correctly that kavdake is Greek for dazzlingly white.
Very learned Jer :) I have two similar models like this, made for a nylon material called HDPE. They're tough, and good value, but I find them a little slippy in hand, so have wrapped them with tape, which has a slightly spongey feel to it :thumbsup:

Quite a shot there. I like the blood(?)- stopper, right after the full-size rabbit-stopper. Maybe it's bloke-stopper.

Better get my walk in before it heats up.
With any luck I'll become too exhausted to work in the yard.
I don't think I've ever seen him miss a shot! :D

The Bloodstopper is the other one I have, came with double bands :thumbsup: I have longer than average arms though, and the supplied bands are too short for me, so I need to change them :(

Enjoy your walk Jer (slingshot is a good workout ;)) :thumbsup:

Well Jack, I picked this up a few days ago and after watching a couple of tutorials on Zach Fowler’s website I was amazed at the accuracy of this slingshot. I figure with a bit more practice I’ll be lighting matches at 50 feet in no time. 😜 Looks good with the Harvey Special too!

Nice acquisition 😎 It doesn't take long to start getting good does it? 😎😊👍
 
Here they are.

The wrist support adds finnickiness and bulk without function, but maybe when I'm a little older I'll appreciate the function.

I can see I'll want a smaller, flatter one eventually.
Those are Old Skool Jer, have fun :cool: :thumbsup:

One of the great thing about the modern flat-bands Jer is they take a lot less effort to pull back :thumbsup:

I expect I'll try them. I have clay balls arriving tomorrow, because I couldn't find any spherical candy at the store that wouldn't give me sticky pockets or cause me to overeat.
Meanwhile, I'll try crab-apples.

LOL! :D The clay balls might not work so well with those heavy tubes, you kind of need to match your rubber to the ammo you're using :thumbsup:


 
That's a nice one Harvey, how do you find it? 😎 Great pic
Thank you Jack. It's a very good slingshot. I have a 2 mile route that I walk most days. Every household in Arkansas has at least one dog and most have several. No fence, no leash, no control. The slingshot is what I use to adjust their attitude and bring them around to seeing things my way. Very few need to be schooled more than once. ;)
