That's a real good one

Don't you just hate that feeling of your skin being sliced , the sensation of pain hasn't kicked in yet , but you put your hand over the cut , take a deep breath and then slowly lift up the corner of your fingers to peruse the damage . Visual inspection usually coincides with the hurt starting

Hope your OK and no damage was done inside .

That looks like a stab rather than a cut Tahr. How did you manage to do that?

Thinking about it, I use a stab type grip when following the seams to bone out the hind quarters but man that is a serious miss ( or hit as the case may be).

I have this Case knife that my dad gave me that he got after he came out of the marines and started hunting again in the 70s before he moved over here from the us it has always been in his draw as he stopped hunting by the time I came along . He gave it to me when i started hunting a few years ago with its beaten up case that ether came with it of got made I cant remember . I have a couple of other knives but this one is special to me and gets put in the pack every hunt

stabbed myself on the inside of my hand where ya thumb meets your palm. im sure it hit the bone and boy did the bastard bleed. More than the deer that was getting cut up!

Man your talking my language now
Tell me about the Blade?
Is it just as strong as steel , can you sharpen it on a stone ?
It looks like a liner lock , is it ?

Ken

Just a normal ceramic blade like you get in kitchen knives, harder than steel and stone so should be able to sharpen it with a diamond stone.

Don't know what liner lock is, it just has a clip that locks once it's open.

Sharp as after a fair bit of use, ceramic's meant to be brittle but have never cracked it yet

It'a a copy of a Boker Anti-Gravity. I brought some in for my dads shop but he's just lost his premises in Amberley and opening soon in Kaikoura, so in the meantime I sold a few on trademe.

I had them laser etched, along with a few Ultrafire C8 torches I've been bringing in have had a play with a few logo's and was going to change to NZCF, (nz carbon fibre) instead of NZHS, (nz hunting supplies).

Have never tried to carry it on a flight but apparently they won't set off metal detectors, some manufacturers use screws that will set off a detector.


Do people want me to organise a Bulk buy with a forum logo? Who runs the site that I should organise it with? If I can get over 20 people I can tack it onto my next order and get a bloody good price, >$30

I'd be keen...
