RE: Gear to go!
Tested those Khukri's for Beardy. They're damn sharp!!!
Chopped through a good chunk of wood in the garden! I was very impressed with them! They're not huge and cumbersome either, which makes they ideal.

Yes, very sharp! I peeled my thumb with minimal pressure. Didn't LOOK that sharp, so was pleasantly surprised. Not had chance to use it in anger yet, but they look damn good - I think I prefer these sized ones to the big ones.

RE: Gear to go!
a blunt knife is no good to anyone.
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

Indeed. Very few seem to actually come sharp now though. Mora's do, but I've had a few from Hennie that have been unbelievably blunt

yeah, most of the knives i've bought have come blunt and i've had to spend some time sharpening them up .

RE: Gear to go!
Speaking of sharpening, I got my new sharpening block and strop the other day. Only had a quick play with it. Managed to get the mora we use as a kitchen knife razor sharp. I got a text from the wife the next day saying she's dropped it, and it had stuck in her toe! I asked her why on earth she was in the kitchen using a very sharp knife with no shoes on. I got a bit of abuse for not asking how her toe was, then she said that she did infact have her DCs on, and the blade had gone straight through them - and then into her toe.
Still, she's got 9 more toes, so I wasn't that concerned
