What's happening in the David Mary Custom shop?

Lucky Dog Knife Co Lucky Dog Knife Co on the river dogs what was the intended purpose for the jimping near the tip as well as on the back? Im not knocking it at all and actually like it but was curious on your thoughts. I do a lot of single finger cuts and dont mind that extra purpose on a shorter blade.
Thanks for the question B Bigburly912 ! As you have alluded to in your last post, I was drawing inspiration from what a traditional spey blade would be used for and marrying that with a Barlow-esque handle and a small fixed blade. 😁 The extra jumping near the tip is just for a little more traction for those precision cuts. 🙂
 
I wore this shirt hundreds of times in the shop and got two small holes in it. That’s not a problem I’ll throw money at.
 
If I seem a bit salty, I’be been on with FedEx getting a ticket created for some packages that got returns to sender (their fault) and I got billed for anyway. After giving him all the tracking numbers and waiting for him to do his thing he came back and told me he can’t request a refund for them. Not until the invoice is generated. Which will be a week from now even though my card was charged today.
 
If "dealer membership" was required in the past, the "dealer membership" is the requirement.
No sweat. I’ll upgrade before I discuss the new endeavor. ✌️

My wife and I are going to sign papers LATER TODAY for our first (and hopefully last) “real” house. (We owned a manufactured home on State property while I was a Ranger, but we had to give it up when I retired).

Anyway, my wife is a little stressed at the moment so I’m not going to bring up the dealer membership until we have everything settled at the title company. 😁

Wish us luck!

And just so you don’t get the wrong idea, it’s not like I went in there to have a tantrum or meltdown or anything. I’m including bag work in my daily routine now because I’m tired of being fat and weak, at least compared to a few years ago.

Today was a couple minutes of jab, cross, hook combos, followed by a burnout ascending ladder of reverse punches from 1 to 20. That is, reverse punch right, left, pause for a breath, then right, left x 2, pause for a breath, etc, up to 20. I dont want to do the math now (Gauss equation I think) but that’s a good number and gets the heart rate blasting.

Been doing sets of three pull-ups every few minutes now that I’m back in the shop.

Oh, I just figured you burst out into a frustrated dance montage, like in Footloose. I guess your option makes more sense.
