Walterjn johnnydoom after 30 years, I'd say you got your money's worth out of it. The one I carry is about 30 years older than I am. I can't justify buying a new pocket knife with a stainless blade, I want something that will get the beautiful patina after years.
johnnydoom Walterjn Yeah. Mine was abused in many ways. I don't use a carry clip, so it just rolls around in my pocket along with loose change and other things. The old one also has a pretty mild steel in the blade and I'm far from an expert with sharpening stones ๐. Now have a setup that holds the angle precisely at all times and all the household knives are now super sharp and you wouldn't know by looking at them that I'm a novice at sharpening ๐.
Walterjn johnnydoom Here's my Schrade that has been my edc for the last 10 or so years. I have another one just like it, only in better shape.
KCee I did break down and buy some stuff this week. 4 dozen Maxfli Tour X balls, Linksoul pullover, kettlebell, eyeglasses and a new modem and mesh wi-fi system.
Rickochet Typhoon Those old Honeywellโs will last forever though I took down the programmable 'stat that came with my furnace and replaced it with a simple Honeywell non-programmable digital stat with numbers big enough for an old geezer to read without his glasses. The old round Honeywell 'stats were bullet proof. No telling how many of those were made over the years.
KCee Typhoon Buying superglue and duct tape You going to fix something or has the wife finally pushed you too far? ๐
sdandrea1 @Eguller @Typhoon C'mon guys, I actually spend more than $12 occasionally. ๐. These were awesome deals and I'm coming up on 25th Mediation this year....more than double a normal year.
Typhoon sdandrea1 The G425 drivers are going for less than the g400โs๐. Did you get the Max or SFT? What loft? Let me know what you think of the sound. Everyone says itโs an awesome driver but is loud.
sdandrea1 Typhoon Max 12 degree. I demoed one last week for 18 holes. Feel is great and so is distance. The sound is "different". It's a "pop" sound. Not obnoxious loud and tinny, just different. This golf shop had 2 G400s for sale for $189.
sdandrea1 Eguller Yarn ? They're actually not annoying like the old Cobra and Nike drivers. Just louder than a G400.
Typhoon Eguller Yarn The only thing is Ping heads are already heavy. Donโt know how much yarn would weigh. In those Nike or Cobra heads though youโd need to stuff a sweater in there to make them sound better.
Par4QC sdandrea1 I've never had a Cobra that didn't just 'thwack' the ball. Wooden bat-baseball sound. Same feel also when hitting the ball.
sdandrea1 Par4QC I've never had a Cobra that didn't just 'thwack' the ball. THESE were obnoxiously loud and tinny.....
johnnydoom TheBlade A Work Sharp Precision Adjust. Basically a clamp with a bushing you can move up and down to slide a rod mounted stone across the blade edge at a repeatable angle.
