I don’t know we’ve had a decent anount of rain lately. Couple inches today at least. On a good note maybe the lake is safe to fish now.

Do it. I'm sure its fine.

Fiskars does make good stuff. Except the lopers. I’ve broken two pairs of them. The splitting axes for firewood really are worth every penny. The black and orange is hideous and I hate colors on tools like that. Drives me nuts.

I like the orange so I don't lay it down somewhere and lose it.
Even though I have managed to lose every pair of fiskars pruning shears I've ever had.
I don't know what happens to them! I think I end up dumping them in the burn pile on accident.
I know what I'll have to ask for in my stocking this year...

Again.

I’ve only cut myself bad once. I was trimming the top of a Christmas tree so the star would fit. I was using this knife and damn near lopped my thumb off on my other hand. The blade sailed through that tree top right into my thumb. Lol. By the way it’s a good knife. They do come sharp!

There’s the link. Just don’t use it to trim trees.

In my defense . .no matter how feeble. .. .
I handle knives every freaking day all day long and manage to not cut myself to bits.
But my kitchen knives do not have to be un sheathed before use.

And never play with knives in the car kids.

I like the size of that axe, I have a small axe of similar design and size... it’s quite handy...

I used it the last couple of springs to set for nuisance beavers that were backing up a spring creek and flooding a friend’s bottom field...

I have a couple hatchets, but the little axe is just so much better for cutting poles, and really it just carries well when slogging through a flooded field.

Well. . I am embarrassed to say.
I was bored in the car and decided to take the knife out of the box and look at it.
First mistake.
It did not want to come out of the sheath.
Should've known to leave it be right then but no. .
I thought maybe I could hold the sheath thingy from the side and wiggle it a bit to loosen it's hold..
Well it worked. . too well. When it turned loose I wasn't expecting it and I had my thumb in the path of withdrawal. .
About as smart as shooting yourself in the foot huh.

I have since then discovered. That it is designed to go in one way. .and if it is put in backwards. .
*THE WAY IT WAS IN THERE OUT OF THE BOX*
it gets stuck.
Really stuck.

At least it wasn't on video and then posted.

Stuff happens especially when bored that's how I was born. Moral of this is it could always be worse.

Funniest thing I've heard all day

And that is saying something. I've read some pretty funny stuff today.

Born out of boredom.
That provided a lifetime of "entertainment" for sure.

Yeah the weight of the head and length of the handle seem perfect to me. We shall see after I get it. I’ll definitely put it to good use.
