Used the DEK to cut in a J box today. Made the Sheetrock feel like I was cuttin butter!

what did the edge look like?
 
It is the 16” Camp Carver and with limited use I really like it. It’s my ideal hatchet. I hope to really break it in this fall and cement it’s place in my wood kit. That being said, if forced to choose I’d take my MC over any hatchet, but thankfully I’m not forced to choose :)
Thank you. I’m kind of a GBA guy, but I like the specs of that Camp Carver. I may have to give one a whirl....
 
I'm so angry I did not order it with stinky osage from a 100 year old stinky fence post from Nathan and Jo's back yard.
Years ago I ordered this Cliff Knife from Mike Mann of Idaho Knifeworks. The Osage Orange came from a century old fence post on the family farm in the Midwest.

The only other one I still have, at least as I recall, is forged 52100 from my friend Ray Kirk, an ABS master smith in OK.

I sold a small double bit ax with it a couple years back to a forum member that had been searching for one.

It is a great wood, imho.Nessmuk1.jpgNessmuk2.jpgCliff2_001.jpg
 
Last night I made a little fire for the kids to make S’mores and my wife and I to sit by while she decompressed from a long work week. Her therapy is the fire and some wine, mine is absolutely smashing Shiite with the MC and then making kindling when I’m tired of blasting through the bigger chunks of wood.
while my oldest Boy was sitting by the fire he asked my Wife if he could cook breakfast in the morning over an open fire- outstanding idea!
Since the grate for the pit seemed to have entered a new dimension I grabbed one out of the oven, so please forgive my McGyver set up.
This morning he made the kindling, I made the feather sticks, he set up the fire, and after many attempts was able to light it with a fire steel. He was very satisfied with his work.
He warmed up some bacon grease in a cast iron skillet, put in some cubed up potatoes, added onions afterwards, then some ham, and finally some eggs. It turned out great!
His sense of humor was shining through, I enjoyed his silliness in adding salt to the potatoes by letting it run over his forearm like the Chef’s that he’s seen on tv.
Time with Family, destroying stuff with the MC, sitting by a couple of fires, boy learning new skills, and a good meal. Excellent ways to end a long week snd begin a nice weekend.
