My skizzy was feeling neglected, I find few real uses for it's awesomeness, so when my dad told me some big branches had fallen on the fence during a recent wind storm, I knew exactly what to grab. The neighbors tree lost a limb that crashed into my parents mango tree, knocking down a bunch of mangos and creating a mess of big tangled tree limbs. I had already chopped off enough of their branch to push it back into their yard before I remembered to snap some pics,

Here's one of a small section of their tree that I chopped up


Here's the mango branch that fell

The skizzy kinda looks like a light saber here


4 chops in


One slash to clear the small branches


Sectioning the smaller




Having a bit of fun, tossing mangos in the air and cutting them in half, only took a couple tries

Lots of cruddy phone pics I know, but as an aside, I had to go back to the THIRD page of threads to find one about actually using a blade, which was by me, come on guys, instead of only talking about knives we wish would be made or that me want, let's use the ones we have and share that experience! Step your game up! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Oh, and the skizzy handle is SUPER comfortable chopping hard wood, maybe I'm used to the impact of a chipping hammer on concrete, but the skizzy is a joy on the hands to whack away at wood

Here here. Well I could post more pics of me beating my Scrapper 5 but that would be redundant lol.

It's never redundant to show Scarp Yard knives doing what they do best, taking a beating and wanting more!

Nice job Jared!!!
That mango looks YUMMY!!!

Thanks man, and It was, I normally don't like mango, but after I cut that one open, it looked so dang good that I couldn't help myself, it was excellent

Looks like the Scuzzy did a great job.

By the way nice pics. I like the Satin finish on the Zashi. Is it zero convex ground?

Nice pics Jared! I agree we should all post more pics. My prob is I live in the city so don't get to use them much except when I camp and hike and this isn't the time of year for it. HOT!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

Perhaps we should have a photo contest consisting of pics of Dogs using their SY blades. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Might be cool...

Yes it is, thanks! I have a thread here somewhere with some videos I did of it after I satined her, slicing hanging paper, watermelon etc
