Watermelon is about the only fruit I really don't enjoy much.



Been making up time on the fly feasting, and an earwig fucked around and found out why this cultivar is called "big trap"

Forgot about that one, I don't use it since I got Dfarms knives.
Might as well throw in the hawk for your veiwing pleasure.

Damn! Talk about some traps!. Yours is looking good. Mine is thinning out and getting that darker green shade it gets before the end of the season. I'll try to get a shot later on. CRK in my pocket also.

Are those from a dude who goes by dalibor knives?

If so, I want one of his hunting knives with stag handles. They look awesome

I recognize the songs, but not the voice.

Just put on Jim Croce whose voice I know well and something was wrong. Someone had the pitch knob cranked.

Will have to play Kenny again.

It's amazing how many "knife people" will have a single pocket knife that costs more than all the knives in their kitchen combined. Lol

We have cheap kitchen knives because my wife likes to use them as pry bars and scrapers.



I have a wife and 3 daughters who seem to believe knives are multifunction survival tools that never need sharpening.
At least they don't throw them in the dishwasher, so I've got that going for me.

Doing some research first edition did rock, country and psychedelic pop. That particular song was written by someone else, played by a number of other performers earlier, but was a hit for first edition apparently.

ETA: relistening with the pitch fixed, I can hear Kenny on the other songs now.

I’m just testing it out. I bought a filler tab to replace the clip. For slipping it in the pocket, the clip is annoying.

So what's the verdict? Going clipless the way to go? Feel that the knife is too small at all?

How tough is the carbon fiber scale on the ones that Knifeart sells. Is that pretty scratch resistant or not?

Don't have it yet, but I suspect the answer is yes.

No issues with length, until I have a sammich thick enough that I have to bury the pivot to cut it.

But it punctured the lid for my coffee just fine this morning so I could suck down my latte faster.

Needed some ice cream to use with the raspberry sauce the wife made today after the kiddos picked over 5 pounds of raspberries, and looking at the Blue Bunny from a certain town in Iowa, it read like a chemistry lesson. So HagenDaz it was. With a raspberry muffin.

Modern blue bunny is garbage, it's a real shame. I've mentioned this before but they can't even legally call it ice cream, it's "frozen dairy dessert" now. The cream content is too low, and it's full of additives to get the texture back. It's also owned by Ferrero now, and every product of theirs I've ever looked at has chemical crap in it.

They used to make some Haagen Dasz here under contract but the rumor was they lost it because they were cutting corners on the recipe.

Ice cream is serious business, and I intend no sarcasm.  

Blue Bell still sells well here in Texas, but the listeria contamination they had several years ago certainly hurt the brand.  We still opt for other brands.

Lemon custard is my favorite ice cream flavor.  My waistline is happy that lemon custard is difficult to source.

Yeah, I know Blue Bell is popular there, and at times it can be difficult to find anything else, but we always tried to avoid it when we were visiting friends in Houston.

It's definitely better without the clip for just throwing in the pocket.  

I've had a couple of the CF Knifeart CRKs. CF is normally pretty tough, but I can't comment on how they hold up. I did not like them so I did not carry them. They were too light for my tastes. I like the heft of a standard CRK, where I can feel the presence.

The HEB Creamy Creations is our substitute for Blue Bell. We were a die-hard Blue Bell family my whole life but once HEB got their house brand dialed in, that's become our default now. It's just as good, and maybe better in some instances plus it's about $2 cheaper per half gallon across the board.

Ha we had one of those when I was a kid. Fill the outer shell with ice and rock salt, put the ice cream ingredients in the middle, and crank until your arm goes numb.

I haven't carried mine much but it seems like it should be pretty tough. Certainly the finish will hold up better than CRK's standard Ti finish does (not that there's anything wrong with their normal finish - I like how it shows wear over time).
