Your Pic of the Day

When I was maybe 15 or so I bought a KBAR for hunting & camping. Was farting around one day & the blade broke off at the hilt, turns out that for all their reputation this is a long known design flaw. They have a very skinny tang & if you break one, that usually where.
I ran into a Buck 119 on display at a Service Merchandise & it was the only one. They couldn't find the sheath for it so gave me a discount on it, that was maybe 1978 pr 1979 at the latest. I used the KBAR sheath for it for many years. One year in the early 90s the NRA convention was in Nashville so we went & I met people at the Buck display. I told that story to one guy & he said "no, that knife needs to be in a Buck sheath. Give me your address & I'll send you one"
They actually have (or maybe had) 2 sheath designs for it. One day in the mail I had a package, he had sent me both.
It stays in my hunting pack, no telling how many deer I've cut up with it

Cool story Stu!
Here is there first treestand I got about 47 years ago.
Actually it's a seat (couldn't afford both).
It's been set up in 100s of trees. Have not used it in years as my ass seems to have gotten enlarged abit but just looking at it floods my brain with memories.
I used it HARD for about 30 years.

This is a news story, but this fire was behind our house this week. Burned about 2,100 acres of some of my favorite coyote territory.
