    My new pocket knife

    I arrived home today after being awayat work for a week to find a note saying I had a parcel to collect at the local Post Office .
    To say I'm happy and excited is an understatement


    Le Thiers , Companion , Norwegian Birch handle , Carbon steel blade .

    I hear that someone threatened someone else with a knife in Darwin, so Aussie is going to have a ban on knives. You will have to hand it back in for destruction
    Give yah a box of Speights for it - save you all that hassle.

    Seriously - looks very nice. Now you just have to get out and use it.

    Very nice Ken
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I went for the Carbon Steel which for this make of knife is unusual because I have always been able to get Carbon " Hair Poppingly sharp " with the minimum amount of effort .
    This is a beautiful knife , and now I see the quality that this maker puts out , for the price they demand , I will be buying more from them .
