Yeah I'm rolling down Rodeo with a snark gun.

Not sure if I plan on going or coming... Either way, I'd be the one behind the camera.

Is this for the Northeast gathering? or is there a fall gathering down at Ethan's?

Actually no. Wind does some weird stuff when moving around an object. Peeing when it's really windy is just asking for trouble regardless of the direction you're facing.

I disagree. Pissing with the wind can lead to some impressive distance. Pissing in a cross wind presents an opportunity to practice adjusting for windage for precision urination. Pissing into the wind, however, is never a good idea.

Get paid tomorrow, should have enough left over to buy my reloading setup. Don't have enough to get the consumables though so I think I'll just get the press and build the bench and then next month I can get the other tools and consumables and stuff.

Nice. I might have to ask you questions once I get space to set up mine. I've got a full setup, but nowhere to put it at the moment.

Picked this up at Blade and wanted to show a comparison.

One of these is $160 and the other is $25.

Nice leather sheaths and hickory handles, check.

I had to thin it out some and regrind it but for twenty-five bucks it's pretty awesome. Condor has it going on these days.

Soooo I got myself my new toy, thread will be up in a minute.

Scout hatchet? I was planning on ordering one myself.

 

[worldwood]

Great pictures Trade!!

25 bucks is a great deal too!!

I think the Scout hatchet is bigger. This one is the same size as a GB mini. All of the Condor axes and hatchets I looked at were in need of some grinder time.

 

[ac700wildcat]

I think the scout hatchet is like 10.5" long.

 

[tradewater]

This measured 11 3/4" long but only weighed 14oz. It's a tiny thing.

only 14 oz?!

 

[tradewater]

only 14 oz?!

Yep. Just weighed it. I really like belt axes and small hatchets to pair with a BK16.

I'll have to check em out!

Neat, might look into that.

 

[The Warrior]

Sweet tw. Personally, I'm a Condor fan.

 

[daizee]

Sewer rat may taste like pumpkin pie, but I'll never know...

no thanks, I'll take the Royale with Cheese.

 

[Chameleonbear]

Both! I'd say each of the gatherings would need to represent!

This measured 11 3/4" long but only weighed 14oz. It's a tiny thing.

Ok, I have what is probably a stupid question wouldn't an ax that light really not work as well as a hatchet/ax that is heavier?

Good lord. That question is so stupid I'm not even going to read it.

Good luck with the consumables. Powders, especially pistol powders, are in very short supply. Buy what you can when (if) you see it.
