OT Knife fest.

Post by Nath »

Last weekend I targeted a vixen I had been after for three years, the clever little girl had evaded me many times outsmarting me many times but last weekend her luck ran out.

Following on the theme this weekend I targeted another vixen that was smart and residing a little over a mile away from the previous vixen.

A rabbit running away , not from me in the distance in the first light of today had me wondering. Rounding a tree line near to where that rabbit had been there she was sniffing about around seventy yards away.
I managed to rest on a gate post and take the shot.
In the photo you can see the gate I shot from. This camera is degrading now!

I may of over done it today with the amount of knives I was carrying :lol:

I took along the big blade to open a hedge I need to pass through regular, it made short work of that! I then noticed I still had my little Schrade USA made folder in my pocket. I love that little blade and it follows me nearly every where.

The other knife is special, it is a Bayleyknife, my knife making friend whome you have seen on here now and then. He made me this damascus knife as a gift and it is a peach. Diamond wood slabs, full tang and milled guard. The sheath hangs from my neck and is also all hand made.

Later on into my walk I stumbled into another fox, a dog at over 200yds. I sat down against a fence post and got myself all worked up n' a shakin' :roll: In the end he walked back into the tree line and that was that! I felt pretty dumb for letting it go but I gues I am only human :roll: Maybe next weekend!

Holds an edge very well but slicks up on a stone easy too, strange as you think it's going to be hard to sharpen.

Thats true OS, he is fully booked and over worked, he even skipped on coming out with his 22-250 this calm sunny Sunday!
