Love this pic!!!
An outrigger might help but I think I'll wait on the beach while you test it in the surf!

Fungus and snow from our walk Saturday. You can see the accumulation from the "snow storm" that passed through.

Re: Knife Photography
Gave up trying to force my Squach canoe to surf (couldn't figure out how/where to attach the outrigger
) and decided it was better suited for fishing.....Wha'd'ya think, does it look like it could “cut it” as a fishing canoe?

This Squach canoe is such a slick little speedboat I have to be careful not to create waves in my village while zipping around with it

Looks like the mainland canoe is doing just fine in the Islands.

Hey! I resemble that remark! I like that shirt, it's one of my favorites. I took second place last year in the Ugly Hawaiian Shirt Contest so now I'm a fashion mogul.

Re: Knife Photography
The Squach crimson canoe that I won in the November GAW did not arrive unaccompanied. Fearing it would get lonely on its long voyage from New England to Hawaii and possibly get into mischief, Squach included Old Hickory as a chaperone and travel companion (the shy and elusive Sasquach may be anti-social beasts, but they are also extremely kind and generous creatures!) The long voyage turned out not to be as long as expected and Old Hickory quickly got bored with nothing to do but sit around watching Crimson Canoe pose for Big Island glamour shots. So, today OH got to have a turn posing for pics while I was waiting for my wife at her dermatologist appointment.

That's my Etsy store where I sell old knives and sometimes handmade knife accessories to support my knife habbit. Thanks for looking my friend.

It's great for people like me who don't have particularly strong fingers and nails. Old Hickory's spring is so stiff I don't think I could open it otherwise.
Old Hickory didn't slack on spring steel! The one I have snaps like a Nile Croc. I used a drop of light oil on mine to make things a bit smoother. The half stop and open positions are surprisingly solid for a slip joint, a feature I really like.
