That was my senior quote. I thought it sounded cool at the time... Then I spent 13 years as a mechanic in a remote oil field fully appreciating every meaning of that quote. I spent many days wishing I had picked something different 🤣

I too came to appreciate that quote after spending lots of time stomping off road rights of way on storm detail with nothing more than a saw, poles and a tattered 3 strand rope...

There's days I still wonder what I was thinking when taking a job in utility line clearance...

Guys R RSL19 just posted the news about the draw on Instagram. Hundreds or thousand will see it. If you want a chance at this knife I think you will have to act quickly.

To answer the question of whether I will make another: not any time soon, and not like this one.

Christy shot a deer tonight and Chris gave her this knife to skin it, but it hadn’t been sharpened in three years since I made it for him. This is after sharpening and thinning out behind the edge:

I told him I think a wharncliffe isn’t the best choice for skinning. So I drew this up and asked him to give it to her. I scraped off the glue first though lol

I’m hoping she decides she wants one because I want to make one… or seven?
