I am taking the day off today because I worked hard yesterday for a couple of hours. I took 2 used large choppers that I had received in a package deal along with a BG compact Parang and a BK9 and chopped some brush and saplings. Randy is right-that Parang is a good value for the money. I liked the Condor Golok a lot but I'm not too impressed with the Ontario RTAKII. After I rest up, I'll take out the Dogfather and the Sons of Dogfather and finish the job.
