What I did today? I made another knife. The blade is High Carbon RR Spike, 7 inches long. The handle is Moose Leg Bone. The sheath is commercial tanned 8oz. cow hide, hand sown with a saddle stitch. Semper Fi.

Fondled my new, to me, 1858 Remington. Very nice, looks unfired. Discovered one of my unused holsters is a perfect fit. Got to prepare lunch for Betty now. It is cooold here at Lake Eufaula. Brrr. 🦨

Powder Valley had a free shipping promo. Still not cheap but I am not letting a few bucks a pound deter me at this point. I just had the best year I have had in 17 years. You know, since just before the last recession. ; (. Seriously, I figure nothing is going to be getting any cheaper and I am looking to retire in the not too distant future and don’t want lack of components to be an issue.

Went out into the blizzard to shoot a plastic juice bottle. Thought I would try a .440 round ball and a silk patch. Used some cooking spray for lube. Found that with silk that thin, the ball went down with little resistance. Tossed the bottle out onto the snow/ice... about twenty yards. High winds, -7 degrees F. Fired one shot from the back porch. Bottle mortally wounded and bled out on the snow. It will have to wait for better weather for a proper burial 'cause I am NOT goin' out there!

It has warmed up to six degrees as of this morning. I swear I saw a woolly mammoth out there at the edge of the property before the sun came up. Might just take a .54 out there and look for tracks later on. Anybody recommend a load for wooly mammoths? I think mammoth hide would make for some good possibles bags.
