Mine should be here anyday, but I am leaving town tomorrow morning. I guess I have something to look forward to.

YES LOOK AT THAT EDGE!!!! very nice pics thankyou for weting my wistle in my thirst for a chopper.

Another reason besides the weathger to move to Texas. If you are already getting them there it should be to my house in about 3 or 4 weeks. The agony is unbearable but the pics do help. I can't wait until I get to run around my house with my DF taking swings at imaginary zombies.

KSJ, Wow! Thanks for the great pix. How do you like the sheath? Does it have some kind of insert for the blade? Hope mine will showup soon I ordered it on 2-7.

congrats!
I cannot believe they are shipping so quickly!
As usual, the yard's customer service continues to impress me.

I like the sheath so far but all I've done is inspect it visually and slid the Dogfather in and out a few times! It does have a plastic insert. The fit is snug against the spine with just a hint of rattle on the edge side. The velcro strap keeps it snug. The next few weeks will tell how tuff the sheath will be.

The knife is a bit lighter than I expected (compared to my FBM) which is a plus for me because I will be using it in the field extensively for awhile. The res-c handle is fantastic when you're chopping. I kindled four 5 inch diameter logs with it and chopped through/split three knots and could not appreciate any edge deformity or perceived dulling. There was a piece of white paper in the box it shipped in with several cuts in it that I presumed was to show the edge sharpness at shipping. It came ALMOST shaving sharp. After my chopping fun, it still cut paper easily without snags BUT I RAN THE BLADE OVER MY SPYDERCO 204 TRIANGLE CERAMIC RODS ONLY 10 STROKES AFTER MY CHOPPING AND SPLITTING AND THE BLADE SHAVED A 1 INCH WIDE STRIP OFF MY HAIRY ARM!

Being in Texas I got mine first but I paid TAX! It was worth it this time though.

Grrr, I had the second order in and my order still doesn't show as shipped, just invoiced. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />




Oh well, I have my custom Ranger recurve to console me until the Dog Father comes. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

The anticipation is killing me! But, like Ted, I also have a new Ranger to keep me busy in the mean time...

Thats primo sig line material if I've ever seen it!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
