I opened the BK20 packages and looked everything over - my only disappointment being that I still don't have a "new coating, laser logo'd" BK5.
Then I stripped a 20 and my 21. I should have given the etchant several more hours, but I had other things to do.
Did a little chopping on a stump, and was pleased with the 20s performance. I played with the 21 a bit, too; but I didn't waste too much time with that, as it still badly needs to be sharpened (I'll probably do that this morning, after the girl is awake).

I recently built a bench grinder and have been learning how to grind flat grinds. Soooo I decided to take my 5 to the grinder to thin out the blade a bit and fix up the funky grind given it by the factory and also modified the tip to give it a little more "field" strength.
not sure what you did there, but i like it

Finally got on the water for the first time this season!
you should let your hair out
Marais des Cygnes River here in Missouri. There is a limited season that you are allowed to harvest them. These fish have some of the most valuable caviar in the world.

Used the RBK and BK-4 to do a little tree trimming at Mother's house.
Used this slicey little b@stard to prep for a boil. Good day.

Went for a short hike/gun shoot. Brought my 20 to feed out before it gets mad and hungry. She cut right through done 2" alderwood saplings. I didn't take pictures so it might not have happened... But other pictures of me shooting were taken and I will not post those here. Not very flattering.... Hahaha
