Yes, I know there is a sub for knives but I see cool shit posted here in GD by people who aren't in the sub then forget what the title of the thread was and then get bored trying to search through every random knife related thread in GD.
This is what I usually carry for long bike rides: 
 A waved Spyderco Delica and a Kwaiken by Dynamik Blades aka Smithy

I think the factory angle is 45 dps. |

Come home from my underwhelming date dinner.
Under 50 degrees but all the windows are open on the house. Walk in, smell smoke. See the pan on the stove with food burned in. Me: So Clara, I see you made dinner. Clara: It’s not my fault, I couldn’t find a non stick pan! Me: There was one right in the stove top. Clara: Where?! Me: The cast iron one. Clara: Oh, I thought you’d kill me if I used that. Ginganinja: yeah, daddy would kill you Me: I wouldn’t kill anyone. Clara: no way was I touching that. I’ll clean the other one. Me: no you won’t, that shit ain’t coming off. Clara: yes I will, I’ll figure something out. Me: don’t worry about, oxy clean and boiling water will do it. Ginganinja: yay! Miss Clara’s not in trouble! Let’s play a game miss Clara! Meanwhile…how can you not keep the food in a pan this large?  The angle of the pic doesn’t show how bad it is. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By MrSig239: Good food and nice pic! it was OK, won't be rushing back. I actually told them no fries, just sauteed vegetables, but everyone hates me, so they brought fries. Turns out the BBQ sauce was so sweet, I needed a few fries to cut the sweetness. Meat was tender at least. And the meal was covered by a gift card so at least I didn't pay for it. And it prompted wife to say she will take me to Sanford, which is supposed to be best of the best around here. We will see. |
