Looking into getting a spyderco temperance 2 off amazon. Chance it may be defective? I know cold steel sends their defective stuff there. Does Spyderco, benchmade, etc do too?
>>782699
I've ordered many spydercos from amazon, and I don't think I've ever gotten a defective one or a fake. Just don't order direct from 3rd party sellers. The worst I got was a manix with a stiff lock.
>>782699
*Plus, if you order prime, you can just return it if you aren't happy. it's very easy and no hassle.
Anyone here owned a temperance 2? I'm thru hiking the Appalachian trail in a few months and would like to know if it'd hold up well

Hi /Out/ I need your opinions on my next purchase ,either A: wetterlings swedish forest axe or B: Tops 7 kukuri. I already have a gerber lmf2 that I bought years ago when I knew nothing about knifes. Which combination of them whlould you choose based on your experiences? Thanks.
What in the hell is that abomination
The point of a kukri is that it is about as long as a machete but bent to provide an alternative angle that a machete wouldnt normally have
This is a bent combat knife
Why

Get a small hatchet if it has anything to do with wood.
It was supposed to be a form of punishment, a particularly harsh and memorable kind.
But by the time Yamato Tanooka's parents came looking for him after intentionally abandoning the 7-year-old in the woods in northern Japan for several minutes, the boy was missing.
“The parents left the boy in the mountains as punishment,” a police spokesman told the Japan Times. “They said they went back to the site immediately, but the boy was no longer there.”
Hokkaido police said the child went missing around 4 p.m. (3 a.m. Eastern time) on Saturday, according to CNN. Two hours later, the network reported, the boy's parents called police and told them that the child had disappeared on a day trip while the family scavenged for wild vegetables.
Takayuki Tanooka, the boy's 44-year-old father, eventually admitted that the family's story was fabricated and that the boy had actually been left behind as punishment for throwing rocks at cars along a road in the area, the Times reported. He told a local reporter that he could not initially admit to authorities what he had done, according to the paper.
"I was not able to ask for [a search] with a reason of punishment," he told TV Asahi, according to CNN. "I thought it might be taken as a domestic violence."

>Mr. Dad-san, you are under arrest for the death and neglect of your child, do you have anything to confess?
>Police-san, I did it for family honor; nothing more nothing less
>We...well, um...if for family honor, case close.

Jesus, this is like a childhood nightmare for me.
My parents were born in Hokkaido, so I heard lots of lovely stories about freakin' bears eating early colonists. Or bears attacking farmers. Or a bear attacking my uncle and mauling him.
Charming historical shit like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sankebetsu_brown_bear_incident
Or stories how one day my cousin was leading cows back to the shed only discover a fucking bear was in it.
Being left alone in the Hokkaido wilderness by your shit...
Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
Long story short: A cow escaped from a farmer I know and hides in the woods. The local hunters and veterinarians are completely useless and can't catch it.
Basically, "it was trained to ignore pain and the weather, and to eat things a goat would puke up". Consider the cow an animal Rambo.
How can we catch it? This is Germany, so it must be a low-key operation so the local law enforcement won't fuck us up.
Additional information:
- the forest is pretty dense
- the cow is brown, and hides well over the day
- we know the general...

>ignored the knockout darts
how does one "ignore" darts? if they can take down an elephant or a rhino, a moo cow should be no problem
if you know the area, maybe set up some tree stands and sit in wait to try and lasso it

Obviously, the dose was shit. I told you the official guys here are useless.
>if you know the area, maybe set up some tree stands and sit in wait to try and lasso it
Lasso'ing a cow? In a forest?

Get her military supervisor?
I posted this on /ck/ a few days ago but I really didn't get any help.
I'm looking for a wood bricket fueled smoker in the $200-$300 range that is heat consistent. (Will spend more if it's worth it)
Want to smoke preserve meats and bbq.
What brands are good and what features should I look for?
Thanks
Damn, no one? I waited 3 hours. I know /out/ is slow but damn.
All the rednecks I know make their own out of propane tanks. Take the valve off, fill with water, cut with grinder, weld a few bean cans on for a chimney and some barn hinges for the door. even seen ones with a bracket and a flue to go on the side of an existing oilcan bbq. Bunch of the better ones get sold on fleabay. They know their shit when it comes to bbq and smokehouse stuff. Multi generational tastyness.
Get some big ass terracota pots - one for the top, and one for the bottom. Put like a hot plate burner in the bottom with wood chips over it. Put a grate in between the two pots, and over with the other pot.
You'll need a hole witha valve at the top.
You can use a Dremmel for cutting these things but expect to wear out some tips. Also, the pots are very brittle
I saw a post a while back where someone mentioned a GPS like app where you can also download trail information and such. Anyone know what it was?
Is that Coffin Rock?

Haven't heard a name for it, it's just an outcrop over a spring along the North Fork river in Missouri as far as I know.
Alright /out/ I like to go /out/ to the desert and go exploring in my truck. However a bunch of bump fuck hippies yell at me for taking my rig off the trail. me being in AZ I just want to shoot them. any whooo does anyone else do this or am I just asshole
Pic related my desert rig
>>772478
/o/ doesn't like me
>>772475
I'll help you fight the hippies anon. What part of AZ are you in?
What do you think about skinnymedic's medikits?
I need one but I'm too lazy to assemble it by myself.
You're too lazy to buy a handful of different things from the internet?
What do you need your kit for? Wiping your fucking keyboard clean? Get a grip man.
>>784403
>You're too lazy to buy a handful of different things from the internet?
Yes, also most meds can't be acquired on the internet here.
To mildly hijack where do you guys get empty bags suitable for first aid kit use anyway when you build your own?
This plus the humidity may kill me.

Same as this guy. Wear breathable clothing, lots of water, and wear sunscreen. You'll be fine.
I figured this would be the best board to go to: are these bed bug bites?
Anon please drink some milk you're scaring the children
>>784017
Thank you for the advice, I actually started working out today
No good way to tell from a pic. Why are you worried theyre bedbugs?
What are the pros and cons? What will I learn? Is it a waste of time or what?
>>783883
It's long. It's well-traveled. You probably won't die if you aren't retarded.
A.T. is the most a casual hiker can hope to accomplish. You can tap out every 20 miles, hell you could pack nothing but Reese's cups because of this. It is standard level difficulty all around. You will not be challenged until you do the P.C.T. which will require more gear and more training and more money and more time.
