Wellston police scuffle; guns drawn Only in Saint Louis, people. ;)

From searching the term "bail" (and "bale") on this forum, I can see that many of you appreciate a bail on your pocket knives. But I have a bit of a problem with mine. I am in the habit of carrying a Case Scout Knife with a bail, and I have to be very careful not to close the blade on the...

I would like to know if a Cold Steel Bushman (the original, standard, 7" blade) will fit into a leather Kabar sheath, and if the retaining strap fits the handle. I figure there are a few of you out there that have both knives, soooooo maybe you wouldn't mind doing this little experiment for me...

Spinoff of this thread:http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=374753 Yes, I suppose you could demonstrate a right to carry a gun in Disney World. If you could demonstrate that you have a right to be there at all.

I hope I'm using the right terminology; I'm asking about non-stainless steels. Which is the best for knife blades? I'm sure there have been a hundred threads about "the best knife steel," but I don't see one just devoted to high carbon steels, so here we go. :)

I'm not talking about legal definitions here, although those might be interesting to consider. Is a Leatherman tool* a knife? I don't believe it is. A Swiss Army knife* is a knife, with other tools attached. A Leatherman, on the other hand, is a pair of pliers with other tools attached...

Would that make me a bad person?

I bought a "Sabre" brand Barlow knife at a yard sale, for about a dollar, I think. It needs some cleaning up, but seems to be in good shape. The tang is stamped Sabre, Japan, and a number that looks like 503. Can anyone tell me about Sabre knives?

Spray-on truck-bed liner that comes in a can, that is. I found some old threads about using bed liner to coat gun stocks, but this thread is about knife-handles, or any other uses we can dream up. I have a machete with a very nice handle, except that I don't like it's bright orange color. I...

India and Olympic Marksmanship

I cleaned up from some water damage in my basement this weekend, and found a box of .30-06 sitting there on the floor. The box was soggy, so I tossed it out, but I don't know if I should worry about the ammo being safe to shoot. It doesn't seem damaged, or even wet. It wasn't submerged at...

Why? What difference do they make? Is anyone's opinion changed by these polls? Don't we mislead ourselves, thinking they mean something, when in fact we are grossly over-represented in the sample? Or am I missing it?

I'm considering these two knives, and would welcome your opinions. Obviously, one is pricier than the other, but let me know what you think of each one. Both are similar in size, shape and locking system. They would be carried from time to time when I'm not wearing my regular EDC. If...

In the wake of offensive comments by hunting writers, let's keep in mind that some writers may try to make a name for themselves by creating controversy. Let's not participate in their attempt to glom on to the Zumbo affair. Let them wallow in mediocrity, or earn their bread by good writing...

I really like the style of old-fashioned knives like this one: But I really like, no I demand, the larger size and greater convenience of knives like this one: So, does anyone make a knife with the looks of the first and the nifty features of the second? If not, why? I'd like...

I've never seen one of these Moisin Naguant critters, but I frequently hear about them being the Hammer of Thor (on both ends) and the thunderbolt of Zeus rolled up into one. Is there something to the hype? I'm beginning to suspect that these comments are the result of people who are coming...

Generally speaking, do you like or dislike the AK platform?

Generally speaking, do you like or dislike the AR platform?

I was just reading the other two threads about Wal-Mart that got locked down, and thought I'd warn you all about the zombies that I have seen at Wal-Mart. They're there, alright. Make sure you're armed when you go, because I have seen zombies attacking people there and even eating brains right...

Has Cold Steel discontinued Carbon V steel? If so, why? I was at their website just now, and saw that their Trail Master and SRK are only being offered in stainless, whereas Carbon V used to be their mainstay for such knives. I have an SRK second that I bought a few years ago and have...
