Moving from Benchmade 710 to Protech 921 Godfather
I am taking my trusty Benchmade 710 McHenry and Williams Axis Lock Folding Knife out of service for a while and have decided to carry a Protech Godfather Automatic Knife/Switchblade in its stead. The Benchmade 710 knife is going to go on a trip to visit @TheApostleP for a spa day (fluff and buff he calls the service, I think) and to get a well deserved, long overdue re-profile and mirror edge. That knife has served me not just well, but absolutely perfectly these many years and it deserves professional care.
Due to a law change in my State, I am only recently able to own and carry an automatic knife. This Protech Godfather is the first of many I intend to own. From here, I'll probably go t...

TIHK PicoPick Lock Pick Set

TIHK, makers of the Tiny Inconspicuous Handcuff Key, have come out with the PicoPick which they are billing as the smallest lock pick set on the market. This was a pre-order item for several months and has now shipped. I've had my Pico Pick for several days now and I'm ready to share my thought on this lock pick set. Also, I compare it to another small lock pick kit that fits in the pocket easi...
Bees In Slow Motion Working My Raspberry Patch
Просмотров 1745 лет назад
Nature Video. Several slow motion clips of honey bees working in my raspberry patch. the clips were shot with my OnePlus 6 at 720p 480 frames per second and the music is a royalty free Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata. Honey Bees and Bumblebees are fascinating. And I'm pretty thankful for the work they do pollinating the plants and trees that produce my food.

10X10 Thermal Reflective Tarp - The Kany/Yuedge Sunshade Rainfly

This is a close look at another personal shelter sized waterproof/water resistant tarp. This particular tarp has two things really going for it. 1) It is very inexpensive. and 2) One side of it is theremal reflective so if you like to build reflector lean to's or super shelters, this might be exactly what you need because it is far larger than any other thermal reflective tarp or blanket or she...

    Thank you for telling me about twisting the pouch because I'm a TTF SHOOTER myself and when I went to OTT I started getting fork hits sometimes myself and my Zone slingshot from SNIPERSLING I paid 170 dollars for its a MINNI ROBBIN CUSTOM and its OTT and I had a few fork hits and damaged it on the fork so I was pissed off majorly. So thanks for the tip with twisting the pouch il try it out my friend.

    This is an exceptional review. Owning a Sven 21”, and corona saw equivalent, I’m now looking at adding the boreal 21”. Your comment around the halfway point is exactly what I think about when considering design and length. I mainly use these really for backpacking. I typically reach for the sven every trip for the ease of sliding into a side pouch. One can easily craft a cotton canvas sleeve to prevent such possible scuffing of the pack due to some edges on the saw like mentioned in this video. I’m also not a fan of anything bigger than 21” because you then start to consider how you will pack or attach something so long on a trek. So back to the comment I’m talking about. “What are you looking to do with your saw, and how big of materials?” Yes I always thought the triangle design to be a limiting factor but in reality on a trek, you are looking for the 4-5 inch wheelhouse logs because who wants to be spending time splitting when you can be enjoying nature or sitting by the fire or whatever it is. This is exactly what happens when I’m out in the backwoods. I grab the Sven and look for nice 5 inch deadwood branches off the ground. It’s not the end all be all saw, but don’t let the triangle design limit your options. It’s an all around great saw for the bush and I probably will pick up a boreal 21” to add to my kit. Thanks for the video!

    The tie out material perhaps needs to be thought of in terms of 550 cord - I am thinking if one needs to pull the tarp so tight as to possibly compromising the tie out, the tarp as well will be compromised - For that one need not be stronger than the other and there should be no concerns to that regard particularly with DD tarps which are of great quality. Like you my preferences are Aqua Quest and DD, NO due to other videos you made I knew nothing of Aqua Quest until I saw your review you made years ago. I hope all is well with you - Your reviews are the next best thing to checking out a product in person, very detailed and in depth..

    Thank you for your thoroughness Ripstop is fantastic BUT it wont completely.😊 Single stitch I thought meant a single pass of the sewing machine - The BCUSA anchor points I believe look tough, only because I am familiar with how strong nylon webbing is. You'll should never have any issues. What creates the weakness on the BCUSA are the holes created by the needle, there should be reinforcement in the fabric, however I would submit the BCUSA is double stitched. With the detail you go into your reviews are fantastic. Many reviews are just a fraction - Someone will make coffee, call the dog, set a product up tell you they like it.. If you have the time please keep going with reviews. - Thank you

    I have a Corona 7" folding saw, because they perform as well as Silky, for 1/3rd the price. I was considering returning my Corona for this Wicked Tough saw, due to the advertising of strength, and the fact that I can buy one with a sheath. It's tough to find sheaths for Corona folding saws. I'm still not sure if I should make the switch, because the Corona's perform ridiculously well, when it comes to cutting ease.

    • @betweenfiveandseven
      @betweenfiveandseven 7 месяцев назад

      Getting a working pair of boots from Whites was difficult and tedious... but they did indeed take care of the warranty issues and even covered return shipping all 5 times. They didn't make excuses, but I honestly think they were having staffing and training problems during my little ordeal with them. I only live about a days drive from Whites. If I was going to buy another pair of boots from them, I would go there in person to get fitted, pick out exactly what I want from their available inventory, and wear them around the store for a bit to make sure there aren't any quality control issues. .. I think the vast majority of people don't have the same sort of trouble I did and for what I read here and there on the internet, I think they have their staffing and training issues more or less solved now.

    Whatever you do, do NOT buy from BEARHARD. Their "thermal" tarp LEAKS along the mid-seam and their "customer service" is AWFUL. They refused to replace it (or even respond!), likely because they don't have a tarp that DOESN'T leak. Please do NOT send BEARHARD any $. They took my $ and ran, and they'll do the same to you.
