Happy birthday/anniversary/new truck to those who have the reasons to celebrate.

Dunk, Congrats on the surgery going well, it's great that they were able to effectively clean out the bad stuff!
Good luck and best wishes sent!

Haven't shown face in the snark thread for some time, so excuse my absence.
If you folks would like a shot at having a custom made knife of your design, take a look in the JK Knives sub forum.

He is doing a small contest to get a new model designed, if you're is chosen, you get it for the $10 you paid to enter. If your design isn't chosen and you want it made you get $10 off the price.

Mods, if this isn't cool, let me know and I will remove it.
 
A question for you guys. Sometimes, you need a gear fix, I bet you guys understand. I will probably never use an esee arrowhead. But I want one, or even two. Is it useful, or am I waiting money? Same question goes to a Fisher space pen. Would I need it? If so, which version... Pfff...

At least it writes very nice :D ... did I mention it takes Fisher space cartridges and 'write in the rain'?

Hey guys so a few of us have the new mewe social thing app and we started a Beckerhead page on there. We highly encourage every Beckerhead to come join. It has a nice chat function so we can live chat there.

I want you to join my group on Mewe: https://mewe.com/join/beckerhead_bkt_fan_page

Check it out! I think it's pretty cool. Jd and I have our fan pages on there too so you can find The 710 Customs on there and Nix Leather too.

+1 for MeWe. I don't think that MeWe will ever replace Facebook because Facebook has embedded itself into our lives far too much, but MeWe boasts privacy and has a really neat group chat function that works very well, even on mobile devices. You don't even have to sign up with your real name, you could just use your BF username, which is what I just changed my name to there.

There are tons of gun groups on there to. I'm sure one or two of you round here likes guns. ;)

Imagine what goes wrong when a Space Pen depressurizes...
The Russian answer to that problem was to use a pencil. Just sayin'.

The arrowhead seems like a neat desk toy. :)

Sure they took a pencil, but they can't unalterably sign documents in orbit. And who has they payload capacity to pack a Notary Public just to make it official? I mean c'mon...

What I want is the pressurized zero-gravity filing cabinet in which they store those indelibly signed documents.
 
Was up playing in the woods earlier. The Kershaw Camp 12 chiped out real bad and the Cold Steel Finn Wolf rolled the edge just slightly but with very little use. I'll post pics when I get home.

G shark, if you can afford it, buy it. You're overthinking this.

Shame too because it was a good chopper.


The rolling on the edge of the Finn Wolf is so minute it would be hard to see in a picture and shouldn't be hard to sharpen out. I will say though that I put a Opinel No.8 through the same test and there was no damage it it at all and it performed about as well.

The graphite shavings from the pencils caused shorts when they were sucked into the ventilation system, ultimately the Russians started buying and using the US space pens soon after the US adopted them.

Or so I've heard

It was still green when I chopped it. Felt pretty soft. The edge is really really thin and it wants to roll in your hand just a little bit when you chop so I think that's what happened. If they had angled the handle back like a parang maybe it wouldn't roll like that.

I have full confidence in Kershaw as a company but I think I'm just going to try for a refund through the river where I got it since I already have a bunch of choppers.
