No but I remember the NOD HASE and LASER as an OP on the sharp end.
-
We have a lot in North Yorkshire this year.
Do we?
Certainly not the quantity I have seen in the past, same for me as the OP
-
I have Lundhags and Hanwags. Both good boots but the Hanwag is easier to get on and off.
If expecting it wet though I go for the Lundhags (maybe plus Yeti gaiters depending on how wet is expected).
-
also plastic or leather sheath ?
Cheers Mick
Kydex, think thats spelt right, looks to be the best looking option IMHO but they are £25 for the sheath. Tempted to get one for my Mora 2000, anybody got any comments on these?
-
Agreed.
My stainless edges are acceptable to me so the rust is too big a negative to consider carbon steel alternatives.
-
Matt generally speaking carbon steel will hold a better edge hence they are quite popular but suffer from rust as you are aware. The oil quench process would give it some degree of rust protection (not infallable though) but you would be re-heat treating the blade to accomplish this hence you would have to know what you are doing and hold the temperatures critically.
Probably best to have a little bottle of cooking oil/olive oil to hand as I do for my cleaver and just periodically smear some on with your fingers.
For me a kitchen knife, as in fairly daily use, carbon steel is a good option.............. but for field use especially involving meat and periods of it being dormant possibly in wet jackets/bags etc. stainless variants are the only real solution.

Yep theres boning and theres "Boning"
Nice video though, might have to watch it a few times to pick some tips up.
-
I have one of these and it is a cracking bit of kit. Note they do have a low battery warning. When a certain level is reached the reading flashes and indicates that you only have a limited life left. I change mine as soon as this happens but I do carry a spare in the gun bag.

As I have now come to expect of you stag, some excellent pictures and the moment captured very nicely.
Good job.

Nice looking table but not sure about the price
-
Martin, the point being argued is small and in the context of your tutorial matters not. I think you created an excellent post and I for one would welcome any other tutorials you wish to create.
Personally I would not wash a carcase unless a real cock up had occurred and there was stomach contents everywhere and then only with a dampened cloth.
-
Thanks Martin excellent job.
My uncles a butcher and as he and you stated on a number of occasions the classic mistake for us novices is using too much knife just stick to the tip and feel the bones with the blade.
p.s. liked the chop idea might try this next time.

GLENLUCE GUNROOM
Spot on guy very helpful with sensible prices and is in touch with the real world.
Would definetly buy from him again, had a problem with a shot gun I bought from him 2nd hand and he got it sorted no problem whatsoever.

I know there is at least one conditioned the same on open ticket with North Yorkshire as I've fired it.
The bit I don't get is at a 96 grain reloads, or thereabouts, what is he going to achieve that I can't with my 308 running mid 40 grains of powder?
