How do we feel about snails on the forum? Personally, I really like the, but only small ones. Once they get too large and into like apple snail territory I find them to be a bit less agreeable. I could eat bowls and bowls of Vietnamese woolly snails in coconut milk.

I don't understand K-tip debas, especially with a flat profile. Is that not just a mukimono?

Proper rust bluing on the other hand, is perfectly fine. I have a special hatred for cold blue.

Speaking of Danish things, you have just reminded me I have some Gammel Dansk waiting at home, thanks for that :)

Caplletti Rabarbaro and Pasubio are really nice as well. Pasubio is a bit more like a sweet vermouth but Rabarbaro is more similar to something like Cynar, both are quite nice.

Realized I never posted this one. I picked this up from an auction for about 300 beans after shipping and whatnot. The Brazilian 08/34.30 started its life either as a 1908 long rifle or 1908/34 short rifle, and would have been chambered in 7mm mauser. Sometime in the 50s the US started...

I have a 95mm ajikiri with a full size deba handle and it's really funny to look at haha. Comfortable to use though, just looks kind of goofy

This is just Kikuichi. Kikuichi-monji would have two more kanji (菊一文字)

Kurotori makes some solid stuff in Ginsan. You can order through a proxy service or Michael at KJ can help. They do custom stuff as well and I've seen them make a couple of ginsan cleavers in the past https://tosakurotori.com/shop/

Went tuna fishing so today is poke bowls. Grilled some tuna hearts as well which were pretty nice.

Yeah I'll never own an M/41 at the prices they're current going at. I'm looking to add a husky M38 to go along with my 96/38 and maybe one of the competition rifles just to fill out the collection. A M94 carbine would be neat as well but they're up there in price.

Picked this up from an auction for a pretty good deal in today's milsurp market. A 1903 Swedish M96 in immaculate condition. Matching except for the cleaning rod

These are some newer boxes
