    Making shiny knife metal not so shiny!

    I just bought a couple of good knifes at the rondy/shoot in Friendship. One has a Damascus look to the blade (etched) but the quality and heft is not as good as the blade that is shiny. I really like the shiny blade knife but hate the look of the blade. My husband suggested that we use...

    Friendship National Shoot

    Just went - bring plenty of money. I love to shop there! Found a knife I really wanted but just couldn't bring myself to part with $175.00 even for a Damascus! I ended up with 2 knifes that should do me just fine. I'll be wishing I had just went ahead and spent the money but there are too...

    And now for a bizarre question

    Well, I didn't mention that I have a shade garden under the maple trees. The trees form a semi-circle with a hammock between two of them. The hammock overlooks our firepit and the shade garden. I worked for too many years to get the garden to where it is now to just mow it down now! Looks...

    SETTING UP WALL TENT

    Ghost, you are so right. When it's hot, the canvas isn't going the right way, and men being as stubborn as they are, I'm suprised there hasn't been domestic violence reported out in the camp! If they would only learn as well as you did, everything would be ok. We camp next to a lady in her...

    Bake kettle

    There you go Slamfire, it was just called that cast iron skillet, kettle or that great big cast iron pot. Never heard of a Dutch oven till I moved from TN to KY about 13 years ago.

    Longhunter fire-steel

    Great job on describing the char cloth making process. When my husband and I make it down at the fire pit (with a few beverages), we always take a twig and stick it in the vent hole when we taqke it off the fire to cool. It holds the heat in and keeps the moisture from coming back into the old...

    Red Eye Gravy recipe

    Thanks! That gravey made the best BBLT, biscuits, bacon, lettuce and tomato gravy. Grandpa used to finish a couple of these off then after every meal eat a biscuit, covered in a slab of home churned butter and topped with Bob White syrup (kinda like corn syrup). Grandma churned all the...

    rifle cover

    I was going to suggest that you could make your own blanket cover, but for the prices on Northwest Traders web site, It would be worth the small cost just to have them do it! If you want a nice leather one, order the kit instead of the finished product, get some nice leather, use the kit for a...

    Favorite Period Images

    http://www.snowgoosegallery.com/mpartis/calpau.htm Here is an artist that I like, Paul Calle. He is a modern artist, with decent prices. I have 2 signed & numbered prints that look great in the living room. I bought them for my husband's 40th. The ones I purchased are called "They Call Me...

    visiting eastern events maybe near williamsburg

    Have the buffalo steak at the Kings Arm. It really was good. Cooked medium rare was especially tasty! Our service was a little slow at first but when I mentioned it to the tavern owner, it was immediately stepped up. The place was quite full (don't go down in early August, heat and...

    Reenactors

    No kidding. Our annual rondy doesn't have cell phone service, no calls from work, no worries and a full belly and mug. I can't wait until this year. We have a 2 hind quarters from a wild boar coming up from FL. Tasty!!

    leatherman hunter possibles bag

    I have a Leatherman belt bag. I love it. The only stichitng that was visible was the trim around the front flap. I removed the trim, roughed it up and it gave the bag a better look. I also added a pewter Cross of Lorainne or "french cross" and a pewter beaver to add a little personal touch...

    And now for a bizarre question

    I wish I had this recipe last year. We must have 15,000 little trees growing under the Maples in my yard. I thought that they would die over the winter (they were to danged hard to pull up last year). Guess what, they are already bigger than they were last year and even harder to pull up...

    Wood Camp Stove

    I just saw a couople this past weekend at Grassy Run in Williamsburg, OH. They were pretty good sized, almost like a double brazier, they could either fold up flat or like a box and you could store the legs and cross bar in them. They also had a swing out arm that you could put a coffee pot or...

    Lancaster County Longrifles, Inc Rendezvous & Shoot

    Which Muddy Run were you speaking of. I was at an event this past weekend in Williamsburg, OH that they call Muddy Run becuase they usually have to pack gear out, too muddy to brng in trucks. The real name is Grassy Run.

    Early morning coffee

    I have a friend of mine that camps from January to October. She makes her own "folgers pre-packs". Just takes two round pieces of left over muslin from her sewing, sews them together by machine, leaving a little spot open to put the ground coffee in, fills the bags and finises them off either...
