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:

Well. You screwed up, mr I failed geography class. It should say France not china given it’s a French drain…

1. That's not a French drain.

2. The French drain is named after a person, not the country.

Not a french drain just a regular storm drain for the driveway. Also roof gutter dumps into it.

Can't read the stickers but looks like sweet chili, buffalo, and garlic? Maybe. Looks good though. I love wings but damn if they aren't stupid expensive anymore. I think the last time I ordered some they ended up being a buck fifty per. Fuck that.

"Asian zing", medium and parmesan garlic.

They are silly. ~$17 for 10 pieces.

To me, not having Bon Ami around would be like not having Dawn. It is great for cleaning metal and the only thing other than toilet cleaner we use for bathrooms. Also the kitchen sink & burnt pans (including the outside...).

"The name Bon Ami and the Bon Ami chick with its accompanying "Hasn't Scratched Yet!" slogan are some of America's oldest registered trademarks."

I don't have an issue with those methods (some seem to) but it definitely is worth noting in the assessment of the product.

Yum.

Partagas shorts are still awesome. Along those lines for quick smokes also look for H. Upmann Half Coronas and RYJ Mille Fleur (which are handmade in spite of the name) or Petite Coronas. Looks like a lot of them are out of stock at the place I normally use though.

Same here but they use some kind of dry seasoning, very lightly, but they're really good.

Going to do a thing. Need something quintessentially British.



"Everyone knows Marshall for making things louder but that’s not the only way we push boundaries. Determined to improve upon the existing practice amp market, we began developing our own low powered amps. In 1965, our vision became a reality with the release of the 18W Marshall 1974. Known for its exquisite hand-wiring, it was about to shake up the scene for studio players.

Almost a Bluesbreaker in miniature, the 1974 featured a grey and white pinstripe fret cloth, white piping and a white script logo. There were two channels, each with 2 inputs, tremolo and a footswitch. But as with all amps, it was inside the chassis where the magic was happening. The combo was powered by three ECC83 preamp valves and two EL84 output valves with an EZ81 rectifier. A 12” Celestion speaker provided a characteristic rich sound that was perfect for studio use.

Since its return the 1974X has been adopted by Angus Young (AC/DC), Josh McClorey (The Strypes), Pete Doherty, Stone Gossard (Pearl Jam) Jake Kiszka (Greta Van Fleet), Will Farquarson (Bastille) and Winston Marshall (Mumford & Sons)."



The Reissue is $3800... I'm in $600 for all premium components (sans cabinet, speaker, and tubes).
