Ladies & Gentlemen, are you into KNIVES

I know. My Cold Steel Vaquero Grande is a full 6½" serpent tongue recurve, fully serrated, with a handle just as long, and looks cool, though fairly useless. I have cut bread with it... It's a flat grind, or was from the factory. Now it's probably more of a wiggle grind.

My dad owns a really nice cold steel tonto knife. He found it on the side of the road while walking with my stepmom. I can't say I've EVER been that lucky. Must be that old-man luck

Just took my Tracker/Hunting knife to the garage and sharpened the blade and used my Baldor bench grinder with two types of buffing wheels and two different compounds. Notice the Damascus steel used in making the front and rear bolsters. Also the handle scales are made from dyed bone and some nice looking filed brass inlay work. This traveled with me through deserts and jungles and has seen more than it’s fair share of work, never failed to complete a job! Another of my high quality made in Pakistan Hunting knives with the original sheath which I just softened with leather soap and finished off with bee’s wax.....it’s good to go👌👍

Forgot too mention, cost me just under $40.00 US dollars purchased in the Middle East. I’ve seen many copies but I’m sure they would not have lasted through the rigorous use of this Tracker!

There can't be a good reason for a knife like that to be on the side of the road. Probably best not to know the history. Mine rarely leaves the house.

Now^^^^^^^^^^^ lets all Pray,your scenario sounds good......even in a court of law👌👍

Dave, it’s a pistol that I’m leaving to my only grandson. Thank you for your kind words, it’s now a pleasure too look at as well as shoot👍👍👍

PS
Any older PPK is worth BIG money, hand yours down and keep it in the family. 

Made to cut Condor plug with!

Back on Long Island, we were surrounded by beaches and the ocean. Any given day during the warm weather once the majority of people left, all you’d see are a number of people sweeping up and back on the sands of the beach using their metal detectors, long metal pole with a metal meshed tin can attached digging around the sands. Once when I was on the beach at Smith Point Park 2 separate “ sand sweepers “ yelled out “ jack-pot “, this guy found someone’s engagement ring. I told him to take the ring to the police station up the road, papers would be made out properly and the ring goes in their lost and found for 6 months and if not claimed by the rightful owner it’s yours, legally. This a$$hole looks at me and says “ are you f- -kin kidding me, one of those cops would claim it “! I told him that’s NOT how it works. This guy could care less if the ring went back to this woman who was most likely crying her eyes out. If it were me, the ring would have been dropped off at the police station and I’d wait the 6 months, I couldn’t have lived with myself if done any other way! Some people could care less!!! Oh, that’s another reason why I’d much rather deal with dogs👍👍👍

Now the proud owner of this puukko on steroids. It is going rockhounding and camping with me next month. Thanks Shane!

Went out scorpion hunting last night with one of my favorites ... 18" Gerber Gator Machete:
