Shortstack will see this – and it will be as bad as me with a new model Cold Steel knife – I actually see a bad ending for both Shortstack and myself – but she can only stomp us once – Shortstack for buying one – and me for dangling it in front of him. Can’t say I really blame her though, the prices on a good one these – hard to wrap your head around – Hell folks – I don’t play the guitar – nor do I play a guitar player on TV – and I want one!
Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – Fish Heads are Cheap!!
Based on the 26 episode series – but not a mash up of the series – if those were strung together they would run about 13 hours – produced by NBC in 1954 – get the popcorn ready – and Enjoy!

The Chicken Rancher called me the other day, was out in my end of the world. Wanted to grab a bite for lunch (which I had to decline) and give me a birthday present. Most restaurants really don’t like puppies at the table with you – some closed minded people out there folks – just saying . . .
So Curtis and I meet with him while he was getting the work van serviced . . .
The spike collar is for YOUR protection – keeps you from getting to close to the mandibles of death!
Curtis to his friends – for the rest of the normies out there it’s General Curtis Emerson LeMay – trust me when I say he’s Curtis to everybody he meets – free kisses for everybody – and for no extra charge – free eyeglasses cleaning – LMAO!
The carbon fiber scales are way cool, and the pop of blue around the pivot – Oh YEA . . .
The blade is riding on bearings with a fairly stout detent – pop the flipper and it IS coming out to a good – positive liner lock . . .
Stainless pocket clip that’s low profile enough that there is no hot spot when using the knife – feels real good in the hand . . .
The blade steel is 154CM – which is almost a standard for GOOD blade steel forever – hard, tough steel – holds an edge real well . . .
Carrying it? You do realize it’s there – at over 1/2 lb . . .
And the “folder” included? Cleaning cloth – propaganda – and extra screws . . .
Real cool birthday present from the Chicken Rancher – Kizer knives were on my radar but I just never grabbed one yet – I be thinking I might pick up one or two more . . .
What’s in YOUR pocket? ( besides treats for Curtis? )
Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – Fish Heads are Cheap!!
The Chicken Rancher sent me a link to this strange little knife – Strange knife? – Me?
Of course that equaled “must have” so I started looking – and found them on Amazonia for $26 – Clicked the button and 3 days later here we are . . .
What I have found through the web is if the box has a blue graphic on it . . .
It is made in Japan – has a “Blue Paper Steel” blade and has the traditional brass handle – the are some that are made in China – and from what I have read – not a lot of difference except a Japanese knife made in Japan vs a Japanese pattern knife made in China – you will also find them with steel handles, but the brass is the traditional material . . .
I teased myself pretty bad with this – I waited a whole day before I opened the box – LOL!
Was not disappointed when I opened it – a good looking – almost cute – little knife . . .
It doesn’t flip open per say – it really is a two handed operation . . .
Ain’t wasting nothing on a liner lock or frame lock – when the blade is open your thumb on top of the “flipper” holds the blade open . . .
Liner for the blade? No need, it’s in a brass frame – saves weight – labor – and materials . . .
As simple as simple can be – a folded piece of brass – a rivet – a blade – completely straight forward – blade loose? Put one side of the rivet on a vise or other piece of metal – tap lightly and it’s tight . . .
From roughly 2013 – even the “mature” crowd are still “doing the tighten up” . . .
And the original . . .
Did the karoke thing for about a dozen years on both sides of the mic in a past life time – “Tighten Up” played during a break would get folks going – as well as this one –
These two songs just get folks up and moving – once in a blue moon we’ll sneak out to a karoke bar just to hang in the back and watch – their are actually some decent singers out there – but folks, there just ain’t nothing quite as entertaining as alcohol powered karoke – as long as the drinks flow and the tunes are playing the show never ends . . .
Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – Fish Heads are Cheap!!
Foxes and Fossils really nail this – Do me a favor folks – ENJOY your weekend if for no other reason than there are many “people” out in the world that simply can’t stand anyone around them having a good time – it simply pisses them off – So go forth – enjoy yourselves and piss the karens of the world off!!
And we all know Shortstack will enjoy this – guitars – Heh Heh . . .
Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – Fish Heads are Cheap!!
