    Jeez you fellahs have talent.
    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

    This is my version of a Ray Mears "woodlore" knife. These are a bushcraft knife, so would normally have a scandi grind, but I did this one as a flat grind since its going to a guy who spends more time taking deer apart than making fire sticks or snares or caving out cups.

    The blade is 3.5mm NitroV steel, with a tapered tang. The handle is Gidgee, with brass Loveless bolts and thin red liners. My first time using Loveless bolts, and I used Ubeaut Aussie Oil as the finish on the handle for the first time.

    Boners

    These are a couple of my boner profile. The steel on the camo handle one is the last bit of 2.5mm Elmax steel I had left in the workshop. The orange/black laminate handle is 2.5mm AEB-L steel. Both have a shallow hollow grind with a distal taper to a fine point. The tangs are tapered down to about .5mm, with G10 handles, fine G10 liners and G10 pins.
