Digging the background and your composition, admiring that very minimalist Buck, but most of all that green barnboard jr. soddie is a looker!

John, you take the best pictures. The knives are great, don’t get me wrong, but I just love looking at your pictures in general.

Tony, I keep trying to mash the "like" button. What a pic!

I think I've got a problem here. It looks like word got out to the rest of my horde about the fun knives can have going up into the trees...

And that is the way it is suppose to be. You are a bottom line, no nonsense kind of guy FFF. Out of that last sentence the word 'kind' applies when you are with your boys. That knife ain't bad either.

A Damascus fixed blade my wife bought for me on vacation a couple of years ago. No makers name but I liked it because of the Stones Sheep horn handles.

Mmmmmm... ham hocks in the wild, sure looks tasty.

And freshly caught crappie's, man my mouth is watering.
Great shots also Tsar Bomba and Doglegg.

Almost had armadillo for dinner.....jk......see upper right of pic, there he is. Was wondering who was making the ruckus behind me
so I waited......

They come with their own serving dish.

dogleg,
I've heard Armadillos called "possum on the 1/2 shell".
When we were young and foolish, we grilled some armadillo a few times. Soon after we read in the National Geographic about an ol' feller in Texas that captured Armadillos for a medical lab that was doing leprosy research. Seems the Armadillos carry leprosy similar to that found in man, the kicker was, the old Armadillo wrangler came down with leprosy. At that point we moved on to trying to eat Cattle Egrets, the white birds that follow the cows in the pasture. They had a good flavor but were the toughest thing I ever tried to eat. We ate gator tail every now and then, back when they were still protected (I hope the statute of limitations has passed on that one

). Venison of course, wild hog, tree rats both the Gray and Fox squirrel. Fox Squirrels are now fully protected in Florida. We did the Eastern Diamondback twice, once at high school after a snake demonstration. Ross Allen Institute milked some rattlesnakes in a demonstration showing how they collected venom to make the antivenom, then they butchered the snakes collecting the hides for belts, etc. and dressed the meat for the lunch room ladies to cook and sell the next day. We roasted one that we had killed in the woods, I didn't care much for it.
Believe me, there is a believable tale with each of the above delicacies.
Excuse my rambling, you just hit my recollection button talking about Scott's armadillo.

Tony_Wood,
Knice lookin' knife! Is that one from member Hellize? Looks like his stamp.
Are you fixin' to plant some corn? Looks like the Silver Queen sweet corn seed we planted a week ago.

Enjoyed your ramblings. I knew about them carrying leprosy, they have served well in research. Have not had your broad selection have had coon a couple of timed. Better B Q than roast.

Good shot Tony. That is your knife isn't it? Like it.

This knife is my own. Hellize’s stamp is parallel to the spine. I find it interesting that we have a mark so closely related. I have only seen his work here on AAPK. I can say with all assurance that neither of us copied the other.

Yes, sweet corn for a deer plot. The deer should eat well this winter if the coons don’t beat them to the prize.
