first blood like cut myself with it? cause I did, but a really small cut, it stung like crazy, it was like a papercut.
the YK has a really nice edge on it, not as sharp and the DFLE, but I don't mind cause its going to see some HARD use and I don't want too much rolling or denting.

yeah, S7 can take a pretty good edge, from my minimal experience.

thanks guys, this really is the coolest little knife ever! It's so cute! hahah jk, just had to. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> but the work you can get done with it isn't limited that much, its the best chopper of all my small knives, and I'm sure not going to be afraid to baton with it, its thick than most of my other knives. I took a few pics too. ![[Linked Image from i214.photobucket.com]](http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc216/tomorrowrememberstoday/LynnsPictures052.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i214.photobucket.com]](http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc216/tomorrowrememberstoday/LynnsPictures054.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i214.photobucket.com]](http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc216/tomorrowrememberstoday/LynnsPictures055.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i214.photobucket.com]](http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc216/tomorrowrememberstoday/LynnsPictures056.jpg) and I compared it to my gerber profile. (which is pretty beat up) ![[Linked Image from i214.photobucket.com]](http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc216/tomorrowrememberstoday/LynnsPictures057.jpg) and i chopped this small limb pretty quickly, it bit really deep for a knife of its size, I was pretty suprized. ![[Linked Image from i214.photobucket.com]](http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc216/tomorrowrememberstoday/LynnsPictures058.jpg) and a random shot of the delaware ![[Linked Image from i214.photobucket.com]](http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc216/tomorrowrememberstoday/LynnsPictures060.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i214.photobucket.com]](http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc216/tomorrowrememberstoday/LynnsPictures061.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i214.photobucket.com]](http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc216/tomorrowrememberstoday/LynnsPictures062.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i214.photobucket.com]](http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc216/tomorrowrememberstoday/LynnsPictures067.jpg) I really love this little beast. Great pictures...you worked that little Dog.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> Dan

I got 3 YKCGs, a hat, and 2 shirts. I received a Shipping Notice on 1/18, but the package label was printed on 1/16, which explains why it arrived ahead of expectations. Still, that's fast -- the return address says TX, do they actually ship from there or from the shop in Ohio? We are based in Texas and everything comes from here. Patti was so slammed with this run that she missed some notifications... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> Dan

I love working your knives probably more than you like seeing them being worked. but trust me, I havn't even started to work it yet. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> I'll take pics when i do. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

by first blood I mean you chopped and/or cut something and posted it first.
The first one to use (and document) the YKCG in action.

I've been lucky with deliveries so far, but I wish the postman would be a bit less obvious than has been the case lately. He left my package on top of the mailbox so that it was plainly visible from the street today; sometimes they leave them under my welcome mat or just inside the storm door -- I like that better.
