Never mind my question, just went to the web site. Damn fine work there Don. Is Kyle your son? Did not see him in the History section.

A lot of people don't realize how useful a large knife can be. You can put a 1" piece of wood, or a 5/8" rope on a chopping block and go through it with a single swipe, split wood, make tent pegs lickity split, etc. Plus, very useful while butchering. It will also function like a machete when clearing a trail.

Sounds like some jealousy is rearing it's ugly green head.

I can't afford one either, at this time, but it doesn't preclude me from appreciating that kind of craftsmanship, nor does it cause me rancor towards those that can afford them.

What???? You mean you don't fish professionally?

No! Tried a few tourneys years ago and didn't appeal to me. The militancy of our local friendly DNR persuaded me to sell my boat and pull my canoe outta' the barn,, wading rivers and floating ponds is where you'll find me.
