Lord, give me the strength to learn to shoot, move and communicate... which requires time, discipline and a shit ton of effort."Lord, make me John Wick" said every dumbass too lazy to train.
Or maybe I am just too cynical this Monday morning...
Carry on,
What if that daisy grew up into a teenager wanting to shoot rimfire
Took me a couple of days to dig this out of my safe. Well worth the effort as I hadn't appreciated it in a little while. Stan Fujisaka knife (RIP).

What type of pattern is that? I looks like a spirograph pattern but it is a little different than the ones I have seen. But I am no expert on patterns.Took me a couple of days to dig this out of my safe. Well worth the effort as I hadn't appreciated it in a little while. Stan Fujisaka knife (RIP).

Don't be too hard on yourself. You did a great job of recognizing the pattern of the Damascus. You just need to brush up on your reading skills.What type of pattern is that? I looks like a spirograph pattern but it is a little different than the ones I have seen. But I am no expert on patterns.
Loved the birds getting us where we needed to go (without having to walk 20 klicks) getting us chow, ammunition and best of all….Getting Us Home!
You caught me. I skim a lot when I don't have time to read things closely. Most of the time it works for me, but this is one of the times it didn't. I like all Damascus but some much more than others. Your right even if it is the same pattern they are not the same which is why I think some finished pieces look better than others when it is the same pattern. Either way that is a nice looking pattern on your knife.Don't be too hard on yourself. You did a great job of recognizing the pattern of the Damascus.

I kid. Devin Thomas makes some of the best Damascus. But what makes Damascus so great is that no two billets are ever the same. Or even if they were the same, they wouldn't get utilized by the metal worker the exact same way.

Love the pictures of the MWD's and the MWD Foundation. Thanks. These pictures made my day.
FIFY# 51 Under stress, you will NOT default to your level of training, you will default to your LOWEST level of training that is most engrained
And it only took 16 weeks or so to teach you that!None of the Above….
Some privates were shipped straight off to AIT. Some learned that AIT did not stand for Advanced Individual Training. In our case it stood for Advanced Infantry Training.
Now, that my life is mostly behind me, I can proudly say, I am an “Echo Lima Echo Victor Echo November - Charlie Hotel Alpha Romeo Lima India Echo”

That was so me!!!
