Yes, I know there is a sub for knives but I see cool shit posted here in GD by people who aren't in the sub then forget what the title of the thread was and then get bored trying to search through every random knife related thread in GD.
This is what I usually carry for long bike rides: 
 A waved Spyderco Delica and a Kwaiken by Dynamik Blades aka Smithy

Just good timing and oncoming traffic. at the distances I am shooting from, the BBs are no threat and don't hit them. It's the popping noise that gets them moving. Scratching your fingernails on a loudspeaker seems to get them up and moving with a purpose as well. For example, when they decide to cross the road, signifying their importance and halting traffic while they meander around. The fingernail on the loudspeaker makes them move substantially more enthusiastically. |

 Work has been busy lately and the weather is at the fun part where it rains alot, and typically only on my days off... But I managed to put together a gazebo the wife wanted. In my typical retard fashion, I wound up having to complete this in the dark, quietly using hand tools only so as not to disturb the neighbors on the only day where there is no rain and I have off. Climbing on a damp and slick composite railing in the dark, about 15 feet off the ground to put roof panels onto a gazebo at 4 am isn't the dumbest thing I've ever done...which upon reflection speaks to all the dumb shit I've done in my life. OSHA would not have been amused. This should have been my submission for "Wharncliffe Wednesday" but can work as "Flipper Friday". |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By DFARM:  Rough day at work today. It was pristine when I clocked in this morning. Luckily, I put a tempered glass protector on it before I even put it on my wrist the first time. Now I just have to figure out how to get it off without messing up the crystal. It fits pretty tight and it's recessed so I can't really get at an edge. Knife in process in the background to keep it relevant. How did you do that? I have used those watches, (that model specifically) from before I was in the Marines and beat the crap out of them, on several continents and just about every climate.. and I have never cracked the face of one. Congratulations - you destroyed something the USMC could not. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By conndcj: I am fine or at least as fine as I'm ever going to be at this point. Still working from home as I will be until at least 6/27. My kid loves college and is doing very, very well in her courses. She works two jobs on campus and also met her very first boy friend. They get along splendidly. Nice kid and I didn't do the "have him visit to meet him while I'm cleaning my suppressed Mk23" thing. I told him my one non-negotiable rule, which is "you make her cry, I make you cry." Simple, to the point and easy to remember. I was hoping for an Italian Catholic but he's neither. However, he is an actual male, not a brain damaged female in disguise. At this point, I'll happily take that. Wife is good and super busy. For the first time ever, she had to be on call all weekend for the governor's office. She had to keep hiding her phone because I wanted to answer it so much if he called. Alas, he never did. I've been making a lot of changes in my gun room. The big one was trading a custom rifle for a thermal sight. I've had A PVS-14 for years but thermal is freaking remarkable. Hope everyone is well. Good to see you around, conndcj. |

If you look closely, the embossed logo shows a Harp for Harp ale, the glass also has a Harp logo painted on as well. The glass is also labeled Guinness. A true Black and Tan beer is Bass Amber Ale with Guinness Stout layered on top of the Bass. However, I've seen and served Harp and Guinness when asked. The two flavors complement each other. Harp ale and Guinness stout are two different beers, although Harp is/was owned by Guinness. |

Congratulations - you destroyed something the USMC could not. I was changing the vacuum booster on a c500 Clark forklift from the 60's or 70's. It was one of those jobs where everything sucked and despite pressure washing it before I started, it never ran out of stuff to fall in my face/eyes(even with safety glasses) and it was still gross enough that I had to wash my face with hand cleaner when I was done. |
