    Nope, I can see the last page 3372, but clicking on the previous page it goes to page 1686.

    I have seen it happen on other threads as well, don’t recall which ones though.

    Last time I reported the same thing, months ago, others said they did not have an issue with the same thread.


    Changed the page no. in the browser and same thing happened.

    The results are right, but the white box here says 422 for me.

    I wanted the other stuff but mainly I was curious.
    I can't stop looking at the thing. I just keep thinking what the....? It's a head scratcher.

    It's not exactly the same as number 1 but that's maybe even better

    I bought 3 and 4 but I haven't gotten them yet. Probably end of this week or next week.

    Number 3 has a chip off of the toe but maybe that one will become a round point just to shake things up. Still considering engraving the days of the week on the spine if I can find a suitable way to do that without it turning into too big an expense. I've thought about playing around with acid etching. Still kind of tossing ideas around.
    So no. 3 came in today.

    I did the initial regrind. This is the first reshape to round I've done so I am still studying other round points I have to see how they dealt with the point end of the spine.

    Taking it slow so I don't wind up with the above project abortion.
    It's a little roomy in the end of the scales. I still haven't decided whether to rescale it or leave it in the slightly longer scales it has

    That is curious. Is it considered a stub-tail now?

    What's even more curious is that they took the tang out of the scales and either cut the blade off of it or it was broken off of it already but they then cut a channel in it and loaded this... whatever it is and used the pin hole to pin the new...blade...thingy into it.

    A lot of work went into screwing that up good and proper.

    Someone had a lot of time on their hands. It is different that's for sure! At least they went to the trouble to fill in the original pivot hole.

    Perhaps the owner was mad as a 'Hatter' or just got stoned and decided to be creative. Maybe this 'creation' could be called 'The Platypus Razor'--

    Why you ask? Because of all the variances. A Platypus doesn't come close to being in any 'Norm' as other animals.

    Here's Robin Williams take on how the Platypus came to be:

    Paul-That was one of the original WTF Razors from BFE Cutlery, Cutlers to His Majesty the Town Drunk. That one would go in a curio cabinet in my house, not sure who around here is crazy enough to try turning that back into something that might shave.

    Good work on rounding that chipped toe-drinking a Corona with lime tonight, no Bud Light.
