Someone else should have bought this.

This will be my first western.

Everything used to be fine until I came here…

Congratulations! You bought an incredible knife. I was encouraging a friend to move on this earlier today, but he waited too long.

Thanks I can’t wait!

I have a shorter Birgie. Awesome little unit.

The choil tells the tale. Forged into a subtle S-“grind.” Like a Takeda, only better.

I think the knife is gonna get a good home, the implicit terror in your username notwithstanding.

Laugh. It’s only a matter of time. Plenty of good advice here on how to repair it when it happens. It’s actually pretty fun.

The first time it happens to me will activate the 7 stages of grief for sure.

• shock and denial.
• pain and guilt.
• anger and bargaining.
• depression.
• the upward turn.
• reconstruction and working through.
• acceptance and hope.

I’m serious! It’s like an open wound that you can somehow heal with ten minutes of elbow grease.

If it were ten minutes —
oh. Just got a negative datum on my skills. Np I’m a slo-mo rookie (on the eleventh anniversary of my rookie year)

Not that we needed all that to cook dinner, but once you get locked into a serious knife collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can.
