Re: Knives in the Wild
I’m thinking of selling my RJ Kegler fixed blade does anyone have an idea for a starting point for price?

Re: Knives in the Wild
Randall Model 3 with a 5 inch blade. I got it in 1989 to replace one stolen from my parents house in the early 1970's when I was away pursuing a higher education. The other thing in this picture is, you probably guessed it, a white oak. A big one just outside the kitchen window so it's not really in the "wild" but this was the best I could do. The rat snake was out for a climb but turned around to admire such a fine knife.

Re: Knives in the Wild
That's a cool pic! Nice knife
Amazing how that snake can cling to that tree like that.

Geo! That is amazing that 1) You got a picture, of a snake, on the side of the tree... and 2) He hung around for the picture!

Re: Knives in the Wild
Came across a snake, earlier in the month...who cooperated for this thread. Came across this guy, this week.

Re: Knives in the Wild
Steve, Doc & John, thanks. Doc, I think your snake was showing signs of aggression. Rat snakes are rather docile & tolerant of people. After I removed my knife, it resumed its climb. I saw it coming down the tree about an hour later, head first, then it crawled off across the yard. If you are slow & gentle, you can often handle a rat snake without being bitten. But I didn't see the point. Your snake, I'd just use a zoom lens.
