As far as customs is concerned, they can't get 'em all. The price you pay a dealer reflects the fact that they DO get some of them. It also has to cover: S&H to him, S&H to you, interest on credit cards, the dealers profit, [needed to support his lavish lifestyle] and lots of other expences. Still ...

I have nothing against soccer, I just fail to get emotional about team sports. Besides, I'm more likely to find a legitimate use for a Switchblade when Fishing, Hunting. or just wandering around in the woods. However in a spirit of national pride U.S.A. U.S.A. U.S.A. U.S.A. U.S.A. Repeat as needed.

DARE

All good but D.A.R.E should stand for: Drink Alcohol, Resist Edited-Porno Then hand those out! I have heard there is an organization called G.L.A.D.D. [Get Loaded and Drive Drunk] I don't agree with the message but I DO have a sense of Humor. O.D.S. [Only Drive Stoned] probably a little safer but s...

Companion

Don't know a lot about them yet. Should have some in a couple of weeks. One that really interests me is the Desert knife Works "Sand Shark" check out videoknife.com and watch Josh put one through some serious use. It's the only OTF I've seen that I'd want to try that with. The blade is NOT stainless...

I thought those would come with the four new tires I need.

Surprisingly few of us care about what you call "football". We have our own game called football in which you almost NEVER use your feet. [Personally team sports underwhelm me]. I'm surprised you haven't recieved any other responces perhaps others share my non-enthusiasm for watching people trying t...

Mikov make some thick [3 layer] knives especially the folding hunters,
changing the main blade to auto would make a great knife.

S&W discontinued making autos [actually made by Taylor Cutlery for S&W]. They still make ones with thumb studs. An independent outfit
converts these to auto.

I use a belt sander [with a worn out 600 grit belt coated with jeweler's rouge.] Follow up with a steel. Over-do it with a power sharpening device
of any kind and you'll destroy the temper of the blade.

exotic cars etc.

Jim If I read you right I'm damn near a success. The thought of going one state south for any reason scares me. It's the only place I know where a dart gun with the suction cup darts can get you a year in "Public Housing". It might be fun to get their politicians all liquored-up and let them pass so...

Getting it sharp

Sharpening is putting a usable edge on the knife.
Honing is refining that edge to a smoother state where it cuts with less drag.

define them any way they want].

What or why

I got into this out of a capitalistic desire to be wealthy, drive exotic cars, have fast women hanging all over me, and be quoted in the press. Now I'm thinking about perhaps entering the political ring to further the cause through legislation. Perhaps a law requiring those who don't have a Switch t...
