Knives in the Wild

[TripleF]

Rehandled Syracuse cattle knife

Oooo, that’s a purdy handle, Scott!

With those fine green scales the whole knife pops.

Fantastic photo of a beautiful knife, Scott!

How's the snake bite?

As for my hand, well I think it is getting better, but my friends are always a bunch of worry warts and saying "You need to see a doctor" I have some numbness in the tips of fingers and a little decolorization, but otherwise, it doesn't seem too bad.

Dang GSP, missed your mishap. Hope it's healing and your getting better. That looks bad to my untrained eye. We're pulling for you as always.

...Thanks I-man My hand is feeling a lot better now, almost back to 100% ... My foot however, is still giving me a little bit of a problem... I can't seem to shake this case of athlete's foot...

I have no words besides, YUK!

Love this Daddy Barlow! A good hunk of knife!

[Madmarco]

Simply stunning, Tim!
I have a big Bark River that's quite similar, but mine has a spear-point blade.
I LOVE the background too, makes me wanna cast a few!

[Quick Steel]

Tim, what a great-looking knife that you photographed beautifully. A wonderful combination.

Along came a spider...

I stepped out onto my porch last night to find this 'lill guy by my door. I had just caught a big 'ol cockroach in a glass jar ... so I grabbed that jar held it over the tarantula ... and tipped that jar and gravity took over... and that 'ol cockroach landed right on top of the tarantula... The cockroach started to bust a move on out of there and that spider was on it in flash. Now look closely at what is under the spider in the 1st picture... that is what is left of that poor 'ol cockroach...

T-Dog, sort of a Wild Kingdom kind of posting. Unusual to say the least. Graphic, interesting, maybe repulsive to some. Possibly of interest to Mutual of Omaha.

Great wild animal shot GSPTD. Amazing spider, glad he likes roaches, we could do with less of them. The missus hates spiders, but I kind of love how many bugs they get rid of. Know what kind of spidey that is? Looks like Tarantula or Wolf to me, but I don't know, we don't have monsters like that around here.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone!
What a photo, Dog! How many times does a photo op like that come along!

[Madmarco]

If the photos are comin' from the Dog, Tim, often! He posts some of the coolest shots!

I-Man, that poor 'OL cucaracha didn't stand a chance against that big 'Ol mean Tarantula I couldn't believe how fast that spider could move. If you are interested in spiders take a look at (you may already know about them) jumping spiders, they are awesome and not as scary and horrible looking as say a Black Widow (Scarlet Johanson excluded of course ).

Thanks Tim, it's good to be at the right place at the right time.... usually I find myself saying;

I been in the right place
But it must have been the wrong time
I'd have said the right thing
But must have used the wrong line
I been on the right trip
But I must have used the wrong car
Head is in a bad place and I wonder what it's good for

Q.S. thanks, ... usually I like to get a series of photos like these while I remain in the safety of the blind and my partner Jim makes the approach on the dangerous animal

Right again M&M !

Now here is a little more "in the wild'' action*;

*Note: the Leatherman Wave is no small multi-tool... check out the size of the bug in comparison...

A Leatherman Wave is four inches closed, so that bug has to be about a good three inches. Cool photos!
