Yes, I think my vehicle and knife choices pair nicely. My mom and my girlfriend both like to say that I have "Early Onset Old Man Syndrome" (I'm 23)
So you can bet your bottom dollar that I drive a truck and carry a Case knife!
Here's my daily carry knife, a Case Texas Jack circa 1977. I bought it on Ebay all scratched up a few months ago. A couple hours and a few sheets of sandpaper later, here it is:
And my daily driver, a '98 GMC K1500. Just like the knife, there are many like it, but this one is mine. :thumbup: Bonus points if you can guess the where the pictures were taken! Hint: They're all in California.
Location One, this should be easy:
Oops... Got stuck right at the end of the day on my way out, just as I was thinking "Hey, I didn't get stuck all day! " :foot: and put it in 2wd. What you can't see is that the waves were coming up to about 15 feet from the truck and the tide was coming IN! I had forgotten a shovel that day too, and just barely remembered to buy one at the hardware store about 10 minutes before hitting the sand. I hammed it up a bit just to mess with my girlfriend, but really getting out was no issue.
Location Two, I'll take a general area since the exact spot doesn't really have a name... Look at the plants and the rocks... Another hint is that it's near two man-made sister lakes that the power company sends water back and forth between to generate electricity.
Location Three, going to be a tough one since it looks like pretty much anywhere else in Central California. One thing that does set it apart from the place that you're probably thinking of is how steep it all is. The lower two pictures were taken from the top of the background mountains in the picture with the truck of what's over the other side. We covered quite a bit of ground that day and not a single thing worth shooting! Didn't find a drop of water anywhere either, which is probably why. :thumbdn:
This here is my toy vehicle. A 1986 Honda TR200 "Fatcat" that I got on a fix-it-keep-it deal from a cousin moving out of state. Don't even bother trying to guess where this one is, you'll never get it and it's top secret anyway.
