What with the Radical Left (and right for that matter) taking over congress we might well need something like that. I know I would get a good IWB sheath for mine. It would be like the old American Express commercials, "Don't leave home without it"!

Now if Dan will just see these posts...
And I am sure that Tom, Spider Pig, Banana Clip and a few other Veterans here, and me of course, would clamor for one as well. Dan already has SEVERAL guaranteed sales. Now all he has to do is reduce it (the Taliwhacker) down to (let's say 4 inches total blade length for those jurisdictions where 4 inches is the limit) and it will be good to go! Oh and yeah make it a kinda mini/micro choil so it can be more easily sharpened in the field. Just make a small 1/8 inch cut at the plunge line and it's good.
How about it Big Dog?

I was thinking a "Mini" choil Just take NO MORE than 1/8 inch toward the point from the Plunge line. That would be a minimal choil yet allow for using round rods or any kind of stone to sharpen every bit of the edge. In my experience (and I am NO expert), sharpening all the way to the plunge line (no choil) can leave for a small portion of the edge that can not be sharpened because the edge against the plunge line is quite a bit thicker than the actual cutting part of the edge further along the edge toward the point.
Hope I haven't confused you with my lame attempt at an explanation.

Better to be a cut up than cut on! Speaking of which, we have to go to St. Louis early this coming week and my Ironman suit won't be back from the Welders until Thursday. What's a man to do.
I guess I could wear my Jason, the Golden Years outfit, but on second thought that probably wouldn't faze the folks in St. Louis. At least we are gonna be on the Southwest side of town where it will hopefully be a lot safer. St Louis is starting to turn into a cesspool like Chicago!

I had not thought of that. Might give me a chance to try out my Weatherby 12ga for real! (OK, I hope not, just talking smack).
