Damn Mick, what you Aussie boys lack in guns; you make up for in knives.

The group photo was a test issued by a mate. "What would you be able to get at in a minute or under if you needed a weapon". I had time to spare out of my minute, but only because I didn't think of all the other stuff I had when the pressure was on

Sorry to take this thread off topic. I'll post a road pic next. I promise.

If the Aussie police ever wanted to catch Mick, all they would have to do is drive by with a big magnet.

They're all legal. Although you can't legally import a double edged knife anymore. Customs decide what constitutes Double Edged which leads to all sorts of interpretations. Sad really. Doesn't mean you can't get them here. Just that you can't import them! Originally Posted by donv

What? No PUUKKOS?
Those Scandi boyos got these wee knives down to a science and an art form. They're handy as the pocket on a shirt and will get SCARY sharp and stay that way.
Not really Hirlau. I'm just a crazy SOB! Originally Posted by Hirlau
