My Wife and Son were tired of me saying, "Dang! I really like this knife!"
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder... and that KA BAR is a beauty.![]()
Shopping is easy... I just sit in the truck and play with my knives.
they know our hobby keeps us out of trouble. Ok... usually.
That's a great story.My #2 son, his wife, and their son had returned from Scotland, and were moving to Colorado where he was opening his company’s first American branch. I rented the biggest Uhaul trailer our Rav4 could tow, and we set off in the dead of winter. Before we even got out of Illinois, we hit black ice on I80. The kind of driving where I go slow and easy. I let the truckers go on by, and sure enough, passed them piled up off the road. Hairy trip.
So, I had been watching the Kabar on the auction site for a week at least. At one truck stop in Nebraska, in a freezing blizzard, I did my usual walk around, and discovered the trailer lights were not working. We ended up buying a set of magnetic battery powered tail lights in the truck stop, and while walking inside, I snuck a quick look at my phone and realized the auction had less than a minute to go. So I will always remember how I got the Kabar....
How’s the pull? Mine is a solid 8.5 but a little gritty. My Big’un Lambsfoot was the same way but after a few flushes and some use it a smooth 7. I suspect the barlow will be the same.Hi Big Fish. 4-5 months.
You’re right about that 6Strings. Gorgeous photo!GEC did a great job on these, they wouldn’t hang around as long if they released them now.

I share your appreciation for the Pal Cut blades. I only have two of their knives but both are good ones.I love Old Pal Cutlery knives, they weren't afraid to put big fat blades on everything.![]()
Just one.How many are in your watch list now?![]()
They are very well put together and have great blade geometry; handy too.How do you like that LT Wright? I’ve been eyeing those for a while. It looks like a handy little knife.
