    My choice is

    E-Put all of the Arkansas stones in HER bag and make her carry them for the rest of the trip.

    Why should I carry them? I'm not going to shred my face with my knife and I'm certainly no honemeister.

    My answer is:
    A-I can very well get that puppy shaving no problem even if I shred my face

    Probably not the best shave of my life, about like the mock 3...

    A. I am better at sharpening knives than razors at this point (20 more years experience!). I have shaved with my Chef's knife, though that was after five days, not three, and some VERY careful prep. WTG only!

    It wasn't pretty, it wasn't smooth, I wouldn't go to a job interview with that shave...but close enough for a little tent nookie.

    OK here it is the answer to this weeks shaving brainbuster but remember that the purpose for this isn't just to confound you but to teach you to think outside the box and be inventive and creative and show initiative.

    The answer is E-none of the above (yea I know there was no E).

    The reason being no woman worth her salt would ever think of saying that after you've been hiking 3 days and have protected her from all sorts of wild animals and after you hunted down meals for the 2 of you and you nursed her wounds and helped her after she sprained her ankle and...

    But more important than that yes you could hone that old Buck and shave with it. How do I know? Well, I saw Gene Autry do it. Actually you really could.

    Stay tuned for next weeks brainbuster.

    Would a woman worth her salt say this after you had nursed her, protected her and provided for her? If so I would leave her to her own devices and find the nearest tree to hug. Trees don't whinge when you have 3 day' growth on your face.

    Default The winner is....

    E-1a: None of the above. Been trekking in the back country and you don't shave until its over.
