Dude is certainly moving some fibers with that Bisaiguë, no doubt.
By the way, Holmz ... I swear to you that I don't have a drop of Huron blood in me ... so there's really no need to check, okay ... friend

Jan Hus would be proud if you guys.
(Edit) it was actually the Hussites, which were Jan's followers. They were trained rather than to learn the use of swords, to take to the battle with they used professionally. This was skythes, pitchforks, and other farming tools.
End of today's history and theology lesson.
Tomorrow window framing and the defenstration of Prague.

Any reason for the Czech-related history lessons, Holmz?

You asked me not to spill the Huron Blood, and Rissoa also mentioned doing harm.
So it could only be a weapon in the Hussite sense or tradition.
I'll reserve the defenestration for inclusion in a post on windows. There is not that much history that references tools or carpentry.

Gotcha about the Hussites. Although I'm the first born in the US, my mother's side comes from CZ and Austria. As Jan Huss proved, we Sudetenlanders can be a resourceful bunch. Where are those Hurons, anyway?

Where are those Hurons, anyway? @red Sometimes I get a red 'wine line' when I drink a shiraz out of a big glass. This goes just above the brows, and it is a line and not a dot. Is that close? or are we talking a feret rather than a tribe? |

Okay, so you've got me scratchin' me 'ed here ... You're either referring to the wine with the large marsupial on the label, the weasel that you never want in your bathtub or the mortal enemy of the Mohicans. Regardless, I'm sorry to read about that line on your forehead, mate ... must've been one huge-arse glass of vino.

The Bisaiguë arrived today, it looks nice and is sharp-n-shinny on the cutting face.

Let me know how it goes with that thing, mon frere ... and try not to maim anyone with it (Huron or otherwise).
By the way, how about a photo?

Wow, Holmz. The PJ unit I worked with in my uniform days would've been proud to carry that thing into the bush! Sometimes "presence" is the best deterrent to violence. Very nice indeed!

Very nice indeed! i thought you were with the Air Force (RAAF)? So I suppose it would be the right tool as it can serve as a plane. |
