Roe was excellent! I ate some of it raw then I brined some of it in applewood smoked salt and fried it in butter it was excellent. Very mild taste, not fishy at all. I really enjoyed it.
A clipped 15? Care to show more?

This:
Well, OK - not all of it
. You can see the chainsaw and the Fiskars X27 in the pic, too - they helped, too.....just a little.

You had me worried there GSOM...... E
My first Becker (second Ka-Bar - first is a 1983 USMC) arrived yesterday afternoon.
This morning she helped me cut some Pex to replace a burst hot water heater line.
'Not quite what the knife was bought for, but it did an admiral job of emulating a Pex cutting tool.
This weekend it will get some time working with my son on his knife skills.
It'll probably tag along when we go do some target shooting too.

While not "Kings" 15, but it is a dropped 15 none the less.

Been meaning to do this for a while. Clipped and stripped my 14 that lives in my edc bag. That's #36 bank line wrapped around the sheath... A good 3+ layers thick.
The clipped portion of the spine is now crisp enough to spark a ferro rod should I need to, but the thumb portion is still unsharpened for comfort.

Sharpened them up for trout camp this weekend. They make a great pair. http://[URL=http://s655.photobucket.com/user/RUTTINGBULL/media/Mobile%20Uploads/2AA7AF04-819E-4763-ACE0-AC2DE65E16CB_1.jpg.html]

Yeah....my right arm is certainly not of the proportions of King Richard the Lionhearted. The RBK is a beast, but it'd take me a month of afternoons to do all that by hand.
