I like the lines a lot, Kepis! - Woodsorrel

Tony, I agree with the sentiment. But I do have a problem with those who "inflate" their resume. And it's a practical one. I find that if a person has been dishonest in one area of their life, they are usually dishonest in others. It's a credibility issue that opens to question all...

John, If you get the chance, take a picture of your work when you finish and let us see what it looks like. And don't worry about it not being perfect. We've all been there. :) - Woodsorrel

John, You should consider making one yourself. Here's a link to an article with instructions for how to make your own. You don't need fancy tools and it's fun. And even if your work isn't "professional quality," you get a great deal of satisfaction from carrying equipment you've made into...

Looks terrific, Dreadhead! How do you sew the corners? - Woodsorrel

Very nice! I've been collecting knives with handles made from species local to my area. For example, my most recent knife is handled with California Buckeye Burl. This "connects" the knives to the forests I roam most often. And I think it's kinda cool. :) Let us know what you choose...

Wow! Really nice, forginhill! - Woodsorrel

Welcome, euroross, from a fellow American! :) - Woodsorrel

Awesome, Juha! What did you see in the tracks to know it was Wolverine? - Woodsorrel

My thought is that fats don't dehydrate well. I would bet that the oil goes rancid. I avoid dehydrating anything fatty, so I don't have a lot of experience with this. We'll see what others have to say. - Woodsorrel
