    Emulating Binchotan Charcoal- Black Locust?

    Don't know if you have already cleared out the black locust or not. I have honeybees. Here in Tennessee, black locust is a major contributor for honey. If not the largest honey contributor. Maybe leave the locust and get a couple beehives.

    PYREX is not pyrex

    Older Pyrex and from what I understand European Pyrex are made from borosilicate glass. The newer stuff is soda lime glass. The newer stuff isn't even the same color glass.

    a status update

    If you are still having trouble finding nitrogen, try visiting some dairy farmers. Most of the dairy farms here in the US use artificial insemination and have scheduled deliveries of liquid nitrogen.

    Pennsylvanian Whetstones

    Pennsylvania was once the slate capitol of the world, may still be, and slate makes excellent stones for knives. https://pubs.usgs.gov/bul/0275/report.pdf

    Cheap food-grade mineral oil in the EU?

    The stuff I get in the US is $2 for 16oz. You may try baby oil if you can find some unscented. It is typically mineral oil with a fragrance added. I can't read the description but maybe something like this.

    Cheap food-grade mineral oil in the EU?

    I usually get my mineral oil from the farmacy section. You can also use some mineral spirits to thin the oil, which can be found branded as food safe.

    Do you find any benefit to planting the greens in rows? Everyone I have ever seen broadcast the greens and they are all mixed together.

    Flipper alert

    Sex is a blood sport "All is fair in love and war" and almost every action we make as an adult can be connected to our drive to have sex. This includes the assertion and dominant traits in men as well as where women choose to spend time.

    Vigina jokes. We need more vigina jokes. I know that Dalman would love a vigina shaped saya.

    EDC recommendations

    Look at Lion Steel roundhead or shuffler, they are in M390 with some nice handle material options. Great Eastern Cutlery make traditional style knives in 1095 that are very popular right now.

    Natural Sharpening Slates

    Yes, it has a lot of thin layers. It would not have been difficult do split it at a few of them and that was the reason for the sealing. A thick coat of fiberglass resin and no problems. I think it is easier to clean up after use as well as the top does not really absorb any water. A quick rinse...
