  1. Karl built this for me in 2005. If you're not familiar with Karl's work, he is one of the longest serving ABS journeymen Smiths working in America today. His work has featured many times in Blade magazine (iirc, he's had 4 front covers) & is absolutely ground breaking. He pioneered & popularized the take down system, now copied by many others. His work, even this old, is flawless. Check out his work at www.andersenforge.com Today, if you were to place an order for this particular hunter, you'd be looking around $700 & a multi-year wait. It features a simple 1095 blade, differentially heat treated, with a beautiful hamon that clearly shows the carbon migration. Hot blued single finger guard & take down nut, with stainless liner. The handle is exhibition grade desert ironwood, polished to a warm, dull & incredibly smooth sheen. I'm asking $500 dead firm for the knife, as I need to raise some funds, pronto. It has never cut a single thing & retains the original edge (which you could happily wet shave your marbles with ) It come with a sturdy, waxed leather sheath, takedown tool & (if I can remember where the hell I put it....) certificate of authenticity. Very serious inquiries only & offers NOT accepted. *some photos have been filtered to show detail better. Any marks you see are my sticky fingerprints.
  2. I figured it couldn't hurt to ask here. I need to expand my roundpen for training horses & need to find 4 or 5, 10-12'x5' panels. Anyone have any spares?
  3. I'll take those primers please. I'm also in Tullahoma so i can meet you wherever you like, after 5 today (or whenever is convenient for you )
  4. Beautiful, 1962 Savage model 30e 25-1/2" full choke, vent-rib barrel with mid-rib bead & 3" chamber. Other than a line of bluing wear on the right side of the mag tube & a few safe blisters, I can find no wear or damage anywhere. $550 firm. No trades please.
  5. I don't have one on my bedside gun. Mostly because it's a shotgun & I've got lights in every ceiling of the house
  6. I have a TLR-7 Sub on my 365L. I carry it appendix IWB with no noticeable printing or width difference over the bare gun.
  7. Thanks once again to the magnificent & majestic @KahrMan, I'm all sorted out.
  8. Yep, I'm 6' with a 56" chest. If i extend the straps all the way out, I could pick @Alleycat72 up & slot him down in there with me
  9. Alaska Guide Creations Kodiak Cub bino harness & rangefinder pouch. Fits standard 8-10x42 binos & most rangefinders. Super light & convenient with 2 side pockets for calls etc... a zippered rear mesh pocket that'll just fit a cellphone & 2 elastic top slots for licenses or emergency cash. $65tyd or $60ftf
  10. Oddly, around Franklin County, folks are having a terrible bee year. We lost 5 hives this spring. They over-wintered just fine, but 3 out of 7 got wax moths, the other 2 just abandoned around April/May. The guys at Duck River are all saying the same. Between wax moths, late freezes etc, everyone's honey flow is down to drops this year.
  11. Sorry, no. I think Schofields are one of the ugliest pistols ever made. It's really a Colt clone I'm after. They just fit my hand so well.
  12. Hope a link is OK, but it's quicker. I'm looking for any of these...... https://www.taylorsfirearms.com/catalog/product_compare/index/uenc/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cudGF5bG9yc2ZpcmVhcm1zLmNvbS9jdXN0b21lci9zZWN0aW9uL2xvYWQvP3NlY3Rpb25zPWNvbXBhbnklMkNjb21wYXJlLXByb2R1Y3RzJTJDbWVzc2FnZXMmZm9yY2VfbmV3X3NlY3Rpb25fdGltZXN0YW1wPWZhbHNlJl89MTY4Nzk5NjA5MDUzNw%2C%2C/ Or really, pretty much ANY 4-3/4" 1873 pattern SA revolver in .45 colt or .44spl
  13. Dang. Anyone driving north up I24 from Chattanooga any time soon? I'd love to get all the Large Rifle primers, but don't have time to get down there.
