Milwaukee Fixed Blade Duct Knife

Hey Guys,
I constantly prowl the isles of Home Depot looking for what just came in. I spotted this knife about a month ago & decided to take a chance with it after reading the reviews. I don't do duct work, but I though it might make a good dive or water knife. It has a full tang,thick blade 5.5 inches, feels good in the hand, easy to extract(one hand) waterproof sheath & easy to hone. I put a 1K edge on it & hope to try it out before the summer is over.

Thanks for looking,,,,,,,:D

I was joking with our Milwaukee rep the other day when I saw this knife. Keep an eye out for the semi auto assault hammer drill :<0)

Now,, don't you tease me,,,:rofl2:

Oh man, that would be a handy little nailer. Sure beats dragging a 60lb compressor in and out of a jobsite.

If it will nail from 10 yards out,,, I'll get one,,, sling it & throw on a Red Dot ! :beer2:

paslode nail guns are pretty good

We just got a new Paslode at work, and I like it. Although I've been having troubles adjusting the nail depth. We've had a plethora of different brands, and all have had their own negative qwerks. My boss won't buy cordless Nailers because they're to expensive to repair.

From much use, we've found Paslode brand in framing nailers, trim nailers, and crown staple nailers are the best. Hitachi is king in roofing nailers.

Have had good runs out of Paslode, retired my framer after 15 years because the last service was 1/3 of a new gun and replaced it with the latest lithium battery one.
The pre framers here still use compressed air guns, Senco. The guns are supplied and serviced free if they use senco nails.

Keep your Paslodes clean and they work great. I used 1 every year at Christmas building the tree lot out of pallets and 2x4s.
Just so you guys know TTI makes the Milwaukee brand, the Rigid and Ryobi. All for HD. All good brands for their target users. All depends how much you use them and how hard you are on them.

My sales pitch, sorry :<0)

I like that knife. The serrated portion looks like Spyderco serrations. That looks like it would make a impromptu bush/field knife.

That's what I'm thinking,,, though the chances at it being tested on fish are a lot greater with me.

Continue!!!!!

After 2 days fishing in Flamingo, Florida,, we had two boats out,,, as we were pulling the boat on the trailer,,, the weight of the fish on board caused the stern to dip under the water,,, several pieces of equipment started to float out into the water. My grandfather yelled at me to swim out & fetch'em. I looked out across the dock & there was a very large gator sunning itself about 50 yards away. I pointed this out to my grandfather, who became irritated ,,,,,

He shouted back to me, "You got a good head start on him boy, just swim fast!"
