Cool photos from the automobile roof.

Here is something a little different. The Winter Solstice is only a couple of days away, so the Sun is at it weakest time of the year. In order to help it regain its heat and light, I kindled this little fire and cut it an apple.

That is a beautiful Sgian Dubh! I love it!!!

This is one a friend brought back from Scotland for me.

Thanks for the comments, Q and Charlie.

Nice Benchmade, Jtx.

I like that one of yours too. I tend to think of the authentic Skean Dhu as having black wood handles, but no question the stag is nice.

Here are a couple of more shots of mine with some replica walrus chess pieces from the Hebrides.

I am curious if you have to remove many cactus spines from Zeus after one of your camping or hunting trips
::hmm:: ... Q .... ::skeptic:: ... Somedays 40% of the day is spent removing cactus from Zeus ::uc:: ... I remember quail hunting last year to the north of my town and right off the bat I was pulling cholla cactus out of Zeus 30 yard down from starting on the trail ... and it went down hill from there ::uc::

Bro, that's the fanciest Opinel package I've ever seen :o Looks like the French are stepping it up a notch or two; taking a swing at a higher end cutlery market ::tu:: Next thing you know, there'll be Sasquach sightings at charming sidewalk bistros where you'll be sipping fancy French wine and slurping down escargot :lol:

My eldest son knows that a pocket knife gift is a sure thing with me.

So there I was on vacation minding my own business when someone shouted "gros pied" and everyone started running. ::rotflol::
