Not that much fun hunkering down behind a desert
island in the Bahamas waiting for front after front
to come by. It's not that I'm afraid of a little wind
but it stirs up the water on the banks and it becomes
too cloudy to read. I do hate going aground and
can't abide doing so stupidly and sailing the
banks in a strong norther is foolish because
without being able to read the water one will
end up aground sooner rather than later.

Actually I think the current iteration of Crapton Neal® is a sock

I think the "original" was the same sock puppet.

Bob Ewell (To Kill A Mockingbird) was the bigoted, red necked, narrow
minded, alcoholic, child abusing, murdering, lying, no count, worthless
asshole who claimed moral righteousness as he accused an innocent man of
raping his daughter just to cover her attempt to seduce a black man. He also
voted for Bush, claiming it was the morally responsible thing to do.

Draft is three and a half feet but I've got it loaded down good.
I figure it's closer to four feet than three and a half feet.

Factory specs on the weight of my vessel is 5200 pounds.
Last time I weighed her she weighed 8,500 pounds.

Yes, that pic on the little perfections page was taken three days
ago at the mooring. That depth gauge is calibrated to read the
actual depth of the water. I have another fish-finder type that
is calibrated to read water under the keel. That thing gets
downright scary to look at sometimes.

3.99....First off its Vintage WWII USMC issue. The blade is 1/4 inch
thick


So what.. the K Bar is one of the plainest cheap steel knives made... and it
was "issue" as well!

and is only 11&1/2 inches long. As I said its perfect for walking the
fence.
It will hack off a 2" sapling with ease, chop the head off a rattle
snake or copperhead with ease


Mine will do the same... keep it's edge... and not rust!

Yes indeed. I have guite a collection of Knives. Case, Solingen,and
several bayonets, german daggers, and a jap shinshinto wakizash.


Big deal.... I've got Buck, Myerco, Leatherman, etc... plus 6 others that
were custom built. My fillet knife is a custom.... 10 inch blade that is
extremly flexible and razor sharp. My skinning knife is a custom as well....
beautifully crafted and made from the best steel available.


Buckmaster makes good knives, but they should stay out of the anchor
business.


Don't judge the knife based on the pins... you are behaving like Nav if you
do. He waltzed in dissin' my blade with no clue as to what he was talking
about. Where I come from... you can insult an man's wife, cuss his dog...
but don't be ridiculing his knife. We judge people by the sharpness of their
blade.. not sharpness of their tongue

Yeah thats my point. It was form over function. And thats a big zero
on my knive scale.


The knife is all function I assure you! solid, no stupid compass in the
pommel, you can [and I have] unscrew the cap and twist in a nice hardwood
pole for a functional spear.

Real men do not form over function, thats for the Ganzy types.


Function over form is correct... but there is nothing wrong with form if
it's an option.

****... Ive lost more knives overboard than you ever owned... Iceman.


There you go... I know enough not to lose my blade... no wonder you don't
buy the quality!

Hwaaaaaaawk

Patooooeeee


Er-r-r... you got your foot with that... here have a hanky!
