Thread: shaving with an axe

Now I have something new to strive for.

My axe from Finland, can't remember the name just now, but the blade was rockwelled at 57-58.
That should do it!!
TO THE HONES!!!

Justin, I almost died when I read this. Your sense of humor is way more than I can handle sometimes.

glad you could benefit from my pain .

"His name was Jeremiah Johnson, and they say he wanted to be a mountain man. The story goes that he was a man of proper wit and adventurous spirit, suited to the mountains. Nobody knows whereabouts he come from and don't seem to matter much."

My hat's off as well, "JJ", that was pretty good.

Many buffalo in the mountains?

About as many as in Louisiana --- swamp buffalo --- webbed feet --beaver tail ---teeth like a gator's.

Really -- you guys shouldn't encourage me --- just ignore me.

Fascinating!

Yeah that's them --- but the photo there shows them in their pupa stage --

If you think the swamp buffalo are scary, then you clearly have not encountered subterranean buffalo. They are smaller, but don't let that fool you. They are quite agile and can easily take out a 250 pound miner armed with a pick ax and dynamite. They are stealthy and will leap out from the shadows. I grew up in a mining town and we would get infestations all the time. Very hard to deal with as they bread like rabbits down there.

... and let's not forget the drop-buffalos we get in Aus. They're just as bad as the drop-bears, although many prefer the crush injury imparted by the former over the shredding injuries of the latter.
