    Review on Old Hickory butcher's knife

    OldHickory cleaver Sharpening, belt sander and convex that puppy? Mine will shave carrots paper thin yet still baton through frozen beef without damage. Handles, I am just about to send one to a friend. I replaced the scales with birdseye maple and used ¼” Walunt dowel for pins. He’s going to...

    Concealed Carry Permit Renewal

    What County Kenton does the same thing; Polaroid & $4 cash. I can't get a roll of 35mm developed that cheap.

    my brother going to Florida. Defence tools/rights?

    Fish & Coeds Ray_ray For your brother; get a fishing pole and learn how to use it. He is going to the middle of some of the best fresh water fishing on the Planet! My biggest concern would be gators & water moccasins while doing the above fishing. I grew up in Ft Lauderdale (21 years) and...

    Citi Credit Card Rejects Firearms Industry

    Citi Bank I have nothing Highroad to say about Citi Bank. Its all negative and its all verifiable & all true. I don't have an active HomeDepot card either because CitiBank covers that one too. Credit line for the new couch went to Wells Fargo I told the sales person if the credit has to go...

    My Next EDC

    Winner Benchmade D2 Nitrous Stryker Plain Tanto blade, Kershaws are too loose (I own 5 so I know of what I say), Lone Wolf was too hard to open (could have been the example I held), the Benchmade Stryker unlike the Griptillian has controls identical to my Blur. Wit a very hard steel and not...

    SG2 or S30V

    I been driving myself crazy looking for a new EDC. I’m going to hit a gun and knife show tomorrow to look for alternatives to the Blur that I am so used to. My question is. What is SG2 steel? :confused:And how does it compare to S30V? The SG2 in the Blur is a sandwich of SG2 Steel between 410...

    Knife With Serrations??

    SaMx- to paraphrase Bill Nye "1 experiment is worth 1000 expert opinions", I just "tested" 20' of Cat5e curring with only the straight portion on my Blur with no problems and still reasonably sharp. Was it as fast as the serrated portion? A qualified no! Because the straight part of the blade I...

    Knife With Serrations??

    Dave, I don't primarily do cabling and I'd prefer not to carry a pair of dykes a crimping tool will cut cable but not as fast and it will not do 5 or more wires at a time. Besides I can strip the insulation for the punchdown or crimp without changing tools or carrying more weight. My EDC gets...

    My Next EDC

    Corndogg, I looked but I just can't do Spyderco, I've never liked their feel and their combo edges have too much serration for my liking. I'm leaning real heavily towards the Harsey T1 but a Partial Serrated Blur in S30V or othere really good steel would picked up now. Thanks,

    My Next EDC

    me has come for Oldschool to get a new EDC he is tired of touching up the edge on his serrated Red Blur in 440C. I have carried nothing but Kershaws for a looong time, well there was that one Gerber Gator. The current front runners are; Lone Wolf Harsey partial Serrated T1 (don’t know much...

    Knife With Serrations??

    Serrations I can sharpen a knife and all of my recent and my next EDC will be partially serrated. Why? Prove to me or give me reason to believe that a straight edge will repeatedly cut Cat5E or Cat6 data cable, sometimes as many as 100 cuts a day, without becoming unusable and I’ll change my...

    Hollow Point Ammo in NJ.

    Chopz I have no problem with the people or the geography of New Jersey but the politicians need a reality check! Just because I like to; pump my own gas, swim in un-lifeguard-protected waters, think paid crossing guards are unnecessary and that jughandle left turns are an odd inconvenience...

    Why doesn't the .45 look more powerful than the 9mm on paper?

    My 2 carry/play guns are .45 and 9mm either will do the job if I do mine. I carry which ever one I happen to be in the mood for 1911/BHP same controls. But it is very amusing to watch the look on someone face as you drop their 9mm straight through the barrel of your .45 :what: that’s about the...

    CZ vs BHP

    BHP BHP or FN, Hi-power is a lot lighter than the CZ. Stephen Camp in his book Shooters Guide to The Hi-power does a very good comparison of the two. FWIW- I was looking at the BHP and the CZ-75SA(Single Action) for a competition/carry gun and went with the BHP because,1) my wife liked the grip...

    Kimber Schwartz Safety

    Bye Bye Schwartz Safety Well since THR went down shortly after I started this thread I decided to find out just how “hard” it is to move the rear sight. I too had heard all the wives tales about how hard it is. Well its not very hard to remove with a 6” bench vise & proper pads a big hammer and...

    Kimber Schwartz Safety

    Kimber Schwartz Safety Here’s the problem; I was getting light primer strikes ( I reload and I was testing some dogfood rounds long story). I’d get a faint primer strike but not enough to detonate the primer. So I’m thinking bad mainspring or perhaps crudded up firing pin or maybe broken...

    Can you legally CCW a Mac-10 or an UZI?

    jerkface11, depends on the weather you are dressing for; mid summer in the south not so much it gets a little easier as you aproach 0' F. I was raised in Florida so I don't like to layer I prefer 1 heavy layer and with the coat I wear below 20'F a PLR-16 would be feasable and a CAR-15 or...

    Can you legally CCW a Mac-10 or an UZI?

    Kentucky CCDW Permit vis-à-vis, here in Kentucky we don't have a CCW permit we have a CCDW permit as in Concealed Carry Deadly Weapon. I've had my permit a few years and I've got the book the way I understand it. If you have a valid permit and you can conceal it you are good to go be it...
