I have a set of 3 Japanese water stones and 2 gallons of water which all fits nicely into my wife’s pack right next to the stove, canned goods and beer.

There's room in there for something other than beer? Ya must be slippin Ray.

Oh and I got My double sided strop bat yesterday as well. It came with white and Green Stropping compound with each "Brick" probably weighing about an ounce and a half to two ounces. Should last a long time. There is that better Ray?

I think that I am gonna wait to "Lather her up" with the green compound first to see how sharp they are out of the box. I know that's not a great lot to pay for kitchen knives, but hopefully we will get at least as much use out of these as we did our Farberware knives. These are due Friday.

Oh and I forgot, the new sharpening rod I got doesn't fold, it unscrews from the "Holder" and you reverse it and screw it back on like the EZ-Lap.

CRKT Yukanto fixed blade designed by James Williams.

That's a nasty looking blade! I've eyeballed it a few times and was tempted, Bet it carries well....

Man that does look nice Rich. If I hadn't just bought a Mini Bugout I might have scarfed that up myself. Plus you can't beat that closeout price!

Had to add it to my James Williams collection. Wish I could afford one made by him instead of just being his design.

Tell your wife to get another job. I mean there ARE 24 hours in a day. That means 3 jobs of 8 hours each.

The CZ83 finally showed up. It spent a few days off the radar so I finally emailed AimSurplus and of course it shows up the next day.

I like it. I've handled one before so I already knew I'd like the fell. The action is pretty good but old school. It's a surplus firearm so there's some wear. A lot of holster wear and fading from handling on the bluing but no dings or scratches. Overall it's on good shape for a carry gun.

I have not shot it and have no idea when I will. The whole way home o was trying to figure out if I still had some 32 acp ammo. I do but it's somewhere buried in storage. So now I either have to dog it out or find some somewhere. With all that's going on I don't know which will be easier. I just stacked the rest of my apartment on top of my ammo cases. I haven't bought any ammo this year so I have no idea what the ammo supply is like. I may order online if something pops up.

This is true but taking care of me is a full time job. I wouldn’t want to cut into that. Maybe I could talk her into getting a higher paying job. Like being a politician perhaps.

A POLITICIAN! Well she WOULD be a multi millionaire in her first maybe year and a half to two years. I guess that ain't all bad. But is she really ready to sell her Soul to "Them".

Like I've said, put em all in a tow sack and you won't be able to tell what fell out until you turn on the lights. And even then you could be mistaken.
