Let's Talk Knives

This is true. At least the suits I bought at JC Penny were.

 

Had a forced patina applied to my mokume. I am really digging how it came out

 

BHQ has gone too far

Holy moly Ray! You know where they live!! Tasty morsels! nice haul. What kind of mushrooms??

 

Lightening bolts! That is a dang good looking knife!! The blade is amazing and the handle looks awesome,, so does the handle of the dyed black walnut! Very Nice!

 

And you ordered one, didn’t you…

 

Chanterelles

 

I will neither confirm nor deny this statement

Frequently go for around $20/lb at Fred Meyer.
My favorite recipes are omelettes and stroganoff

 

Now this big one is called a lobster. Found it yesterday. It’s about an ugly sumbitch, but it’s actually about the tastiest shroom out there

 

Yup that’s the one!!! DANG!! You beat me to it. My BIL (now deceased) lived near Mankato Minnesota and owned a good bit of property with lots of forest area. He used to tell be about those Lobster Mushrooms. I always wanted to try those but it never did work out,, and I was going to ask if you ever come across those. Good score!! at least from what I’ve been told and read about.

 

This is the second one I’ve found in 4 years. I think they’re more plentiful in some areas but not around here

Interesting mechanism…
But why though.

 

True. Also need one hell of a pocket for that

 

Indeed, very interesting. It seems a bit like “a solution in search of a problem”.
I’m sure it will not be inexpensive, either.

 

Messer always has some out there designs…

check this one out

apparently it’s 3d printed steel

It's an interesting guns idea, but guns I'm wondering what other guns applications 3D printed steel guns could be used for guns.

 

Possibly for guns?

 

When you buy a 3d knife they will send you several 3d files for printing your scales and sheath. It’s pretty wild technology

 

Right at 800 dollars,,, over my limit.

 

Yeah it’s crazy man! Next thing you know we will be eating cheese out of a can! Technology man!

did you happen to check out the spine? Looks pretty wild, I wanted to call if file work but it’s printed

 

... you said sheath

 

What I don’t like, is that it takes what I feel should be craftsmanship and replaces it with well financed technology nerds who might not even know how to sharpen a pencil. Plus, and I really hate to admit it, it’s possible that the knife quality could really be top notch.
Stuff like that spine design really is a good example of what I’m saying.

 

So, I was out foraging yesterday; not really ...

and I came across this beast (regulation-size tennis ball used for reference)

...but unfortunately I did not have my RT sickle on me so I was unable to properly harvest this beast

 

Is that also a lobster? But it does not look the same?

it’s a monster for sure

 

I’m not sure but that might not be an edible. Be careful, lots of em will make you sick and some will kill ya

 

^^^^ yup yup I have no idea what that is, that is why I asked? I have not eaten one like that before?

 

I have no idea...

 

I don't mess w/that stuff; it makes me a bit nervous!!

thank you for the warnings

 

This is about the best book for mushroom identification
