Nice 163! Strong spring, but easy pinch opening, and great steel.
Hey! I had never thought about that use for a knife I never pursued, being a man without a horse. I usually use a screwdriver for the chunks, and wire brush to finish. That knife does it with style.Watched some Olympic skeleton and single bobsled this morning. I'm not sure which is crazier - luge or skeleton. Speaking of crazy, the little town of Hartsburg, Missouri lies at the bottom of the Missouri River bluffs. The crooked road leading into it has a vertical elevation drop of 150-200 feet. I once hit 55 mph on a racing bicycle coming down it. At the bottom there's houses, a post office, a tavern, a cross road, etc. Basically shooting into town in excess of 50 mph on a bicycle is dumb, reckless, and crazy. It was also a rush
But I was speaking of luges and skeletons. Around the same time I did this, I met a guy, also named Mike, who periodically would come down it on a street luge. With no brakesI don't know how fast he went on it, but if I hit 55 on a bike, he was probably going somewhat faster. Mike was a nice, soft spoken, crazy man
Anyway, I'll probably watch the Daytona 500. Nothing else planned.
Hoof pick knives came up in another thread, so I grabbed this one off the table by the door where it normally resides. I don't have a horse, but it's just the thing for boot tread cleaning.

At least carry it long enough to wear off some of that red so the Hemlock Green shows through.Well, maybe I'll change my carry knife tomorrow. Some knives just insist on sticking around a little longer.

This DuPont delrin will be going to Glenn eventuallyCareful, Paul! That Dupont Delrinmight just win you over
The more you carry it, the silkier it gets.
I'd much rather leaf through an actual paper seed catalog than look at their websites on my phone.
