He had a fantastic curly maple I almost bought but it was a bit heavier, I think it might have been 150

for anyone looking for a paddle, I just came acrost this guy almost in my own backyard https://www.facebook.com/thomsenboats/ His paddles are WAY underpriced, I paid 125 for a teak and sycamore beavertail. I'll shoot some photos when I get a chance but I can tell he's undercharging by the...

Time for a shakedown ! I'm not happy with the bowline, I think at 70mph it's going to sound like a bad banjo.

Does anyone have a source for quality lumber for making paddles ?

Interesting, I have an F250 I'll be putting a single yakima bar on, and an upright in the back of the bed to put my 17' canoe on

I'm always curious what people pick for a knife, if they do, and why. Growing up I was in the BoyScouts, earned my Eagle. That's always been part of what drives me to the outdoors. I learned how to sharpen a knife in the cubscouts and my "Totin' chip" card is something I remember pretty vividly...

yup, I had a pivot and a few screws rust on a stainless folder -almost like they grabbed some from another bin

I've had good results from the guys who use them. They're just simply knives, 1095 that's Molyresin coated with micarta handles. Sheath retention is a big issue with me for knives (and handguns), that's why I don't make sheaths. I have a few kydex guys I trust and two for leather,

There are a few other allows that are very good in corrosive environments. "Talonite" (Stellite 6BH) work very well, and Ocean Master makes a few dive knives and even a folder from "Beta Titanium". Personally I've had good luck using a baked on coating called Molyresin on high carbon, non...

I took this with my 6D a few years ago with a $250, 14mm f/2.8 Rokinon manual focus lens. Like I said it's a great camera for shooting at night.

funny you say that. in 09' I was on my way back to the airport from a convention in Orlando. I was returning my rental car, reached into my pocket and found a loaded 1911 magazine.. Detroit metro never saw it. Needless to say I dumped the ammo and put the mag in my checked luggage.

Knives are a personal thing for a lot of people and for some seem to hold quite a bit of emotional attachment, for whatever reason.

Lets see what you take with you into the back country, or on a trip out for the weekend. Knives are just tools, because we don't have sharp claws :)

This is my travel box. I replaced my 6D last year with a bigger camera for faster fps. I loved my 6D though, great for taking night photos. The extra body is a 5Ds R I have a 14mm f/2.8 100-400mm 1.4x converter 24-105mm gear stays in the box until the paddeling stops.
