We all make stuff other than pipes, so here's a place where "anything goes" as far as showing off some of your projects and other hobbies.

In that case, you should post a sign that says "BEWARE OF PIG." When things do go bad, do you just turn the pig loose and let it raise hell, or is there a more defined methodology to protecting oneself with a pig?

Ha!

I just almost snorted beer out my nose. I'm imagining a pig "raising hell" in someone's yard...preferably Rad's, for some reason. Tee hee...

Malina?

When we moved out to AZ, I heard all these stories about the mighty javelina; how ferocious and big they are (Allegedly they get up to 70+ pounds. Allegedly.). Since I do a fair amount of backpacking I was always alert. Until one day I saw one... pathetic. I've seen quite a few since, and the biggest I've seen MIGHT have been 30 pounds. Pfffff - bring it on Wilbur.

70 lbs out here is a piglet. Which, we have a different breed of pigs. Not sure what they're supposed to be called, other than supper. Average boar is round about 150 lbs, sals a lil bigger.

Either way, with the "pig sticker" Kurt made, I'd still side with ya on the "bring it on" comment ;)

Very nice knife Kurt, I'm sure you'll be gettin plenty of use out of it :) I've seen a few of your knives here that seem to show a great balance of aesthetics and function, you make any other weapons?
