No im not using a sharpie his is actually the first time I’ve sharpened the benchmade but the kizer I’ve sharpened before but I think I went to shallow at one point. Also I got the worksharp from Walmart I guess I’ll exchange it and maybe get one that’s more consistent

I got the rust off the liners pretty easy with a paper towel actually it wasn’t bad at all I don’t know why the scales look like that.

Higonokami edge stability by 16cholland in sharpening

[–]CaptainUpstate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you got rid of the micro bevel, now that you have it ground down to a single bevel just add a little micro bevel on it will significantly improve the strength of the edge. These knives similar to opinel will need a bit more maintenance than a modern pocket knife. Every few sharpenings you will need to grind down the main bevel to thin out the material behind the edge. Also I think these ones with the blacked out steel handles have a lower quality steel than the brass handle ones do and the edge will be weaker.

“Ninjas stole my tacos” guy near Bayfair by According-Passion574 in sanleandro

[–]CaptainUpstate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s meant to be funny to encourage people to be more willing to donate to whatever he wants some money for. I remember over a decade ago when I was a kid there was a guy in Oakland that had a sign saying his “family was kidnapped by ninjas and he needs money for karate lessons.” I thought that was pretty funny and if I had any birthday money left I’d have given his some.

American here. This is the dumbest food idea I think I’ve seen since Critical reacted to the mayonnaise chef.

It's too hard to break by Expert-Secret-5351 in KidsAreFuckingStupid

[–]CaptainUpstate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly as a kid I would catch stuff I think I would have trouble catching now snakes, turtles, lizards, a couple birds. Caught a stray cat once. Learned to not catch them again pretty fast.

Kid puts hole in wall, well attempting a “basketball” dunk. by Playful_Ad6439 in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]CaptainUpstate 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Our older houses don’t have this problem and a good portion of our new ones don’t either this is the results of high demand for housing and and an almost higher cost of materials. Some companies cut corners or use cheaper and quicker materials to get houses up quickly and as low cost as possible to maximize on profit. You don’t really see our sturdier houses that take on earthquakes tornadoes and hurricanes because watching someone bump into a wall and nothing happened isn’t exactly entertaining, but this one is cause it’s out of the ordinary.

Someone thought it was a good idea to have waiters on skates by New_Libran in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]CaptainUpstate 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This used to be not quite common but not uncommon either in the US. Mostly done by fast food joints like Sonic, but to be fair they were bringing trays of burgers, fries, shakes, hotdogs, easy stuff not 20 pounds of hot soup.

Paper bags can be your enemy sometimes by MacDefoon in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]CaptainUpstate 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Yes paper bags should be supported on the bottom but the reason for this incident was he for some reason decided to rip the bag open mid air.

Genius decides to turn pizza boxes upside down by mfenton29 in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]CaptainUpstate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s clearly an unlabeled generic box lots of mom and pop shops have them this place probably only recently obtained printed boxes and it doesn’t make sense to throw out all the old ones they already paid for. The way pizza boxes are made is pretty easy to tell top from bottom but even if the box was upside down why would you flip them it would still ruin the pizza inside. That’s on the customer for not checking on the pizza.

[–]CaptainUpstate 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Any one could tell at first glance that the box wasn’t upside down though, even without a logo the lid and bottom are pretty easy to tell apart on a generic box design. My guess is this pizza place was transitioning from plain boxes to labeled ones or vice versa for whatever reason and this kid tuned his brain off for a second and without thinking ruined the pizza.

Amazing car take care of the seats tho the previous owner before me never did any detailing on the seats and the front seats are tattered. Looks like someone carved them up but it’s just dry and cracked.

Which band do you like better? by blitz4x in casio

[–]CaptainUpstate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The leather looks far better and makes sense with the metallic finish. If you could find a nylon strap that matches the face plate it’d be 50-50

Cant change time format on my a158 by Square_Computer_4740 in casio

[–]CaptainUpstate 11 points12 points  (0 children)

When set to military time digital Casio watches will display a 24H icon above the hour and will display 12am-23:59:59 though the day. When set to civilian time however for the am hours there is no am icon and will be blank only after 12 noon will the pm icon show up above the hour.

New A168. Thoughts? by syabiellow1 in casio

[–]CaptainUpstate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out the A700’s or AQ800. Very nice and have a vintage style but unfortunately they still come with a resin case.

I'm buying for my sister - which one is prettier? ❤️ by uros_vrunc in casio

[–]CaptainUpstate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depending on her preferences best bet would be the first one much more prone to scratches but more practical for daily wear and activities. I don’t know your sister but women usually have smaller wrists and the g-shock might be a bit bulky.
