    I've been off-line for the last four days. Moved again.

    Move only took two days, but getting plugged back into the Matrix took two more.

    After the peace and freedom I experienced while unplugged (no smart phone), walking in Maine woods
    (especially that red pine grove among glacial erratics in the 100 acres west of here),
    I contemplated postponing the replugging.

    But against my better judgement, I plugged back in.
    Then I watched the last five episodes of season 4 of Hell on Wheels.
    (Memo: "Ruth. Come'on, don't be a martyr. Oh, crap .. too late.")

    Sleep is soon. More videos about daggers are forthcoming.

    We need videos about dagger:
    • pages
    • reviews
    • training
    • history
    • action films
    • mythology
    • optimal design
    • etc

    Jeeter, my apology. I just found your comment. Not sure how I overlooked it, but I did.

    Yes, different blade choice for me. I own some flat grinds for EDC (Izula foremost among them) and scandi's for my time in the woods and countryside, where bushcraft is valued. (I just moved out of another evil city -- remember my last location? -- never to live in one again; back near the wilds where I belong.)

    But a dagger has only one purpose, really, and it's neither opening packages, slicing salami or bushcraft.

    I've always wanted one. I own a compact 9mm for SD. But there could be times when SD requires quiet. And for some reason, I'd rather not have to use my Izula or a scandi for that job.

    Here's an engaging, entertaining and informative video
    on making a small dagger with 01 steel, brass and purple heart wood.

    It would definitely hold a good little stash of whatever recreational you wanted to go out with. I would likely put a little bit of the devils dandruff in there and go on a dagger spree if it was my last chance.

    Ah, good to see this thread developing a life with soul and spirit. Daggers and sharp music: What a great mix.

    I've been pondering why I was so motivated to post music above by the young female composer/pianist Emily Bear, who a week ago, became my favorite pianist ever. She's amazing. I liken her music and spirit to be daggerlike. It has literally openned a whole new chapter in my musical appreciation (and many of you know of my other musical tastes, and some hate them -- which is fine -- different strokes).

    Ms. Bear is a musical genius.

    I found some more videos of the SWHRT Dagger I'm interested in. Will post more downstream.

    So, back to daggers.

    I've found some new videos about the SW HRT. Here's the first.

    The first knife I ever wanted was a gerber mk 11. Grew up reading Mack bolan books. My girlfriend daddy drove in the snow to get me one for Christmas present. He was a marine combat veteran in Vietnam. The girlfriend is now my wife and he died a couple years ago from lung cancer. Still think of him every time I pull it out.
