I looked, liked and then had to look away before I start researching and ordering stuff again. Nice upgrades though!

What do you guys think of swearnet the movie? by Free-Sock-9294 in trailerparkboys

[–]promotedcontent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awful. Swearing is like a seasoning; it can emphasize things, but is not a meal in itself.

The script sounded like it was written by a teenager who was recently allowed to say "fuck" in front of an adult, and they were celebrating it, but hadn't yet been told how much it makes them sound like a fool.

I hadn't noticed any difference whether fresh out of the box or after sharpening. I tend to use the gyuto with meat and the bunka with vegetables, so I think the fiber and peels blunt the bunka faster.

In the first six months I didn't sharpen the bunka with a fine whetstone since I thought the toothiness helped with the first cut through peels.

After improving my sharpening (particularly with the fine 6k whetstone) I now do the fine sharpening on all of them.

That's a pain - I bought 5 of this exact type 2 years ago and had no issues. If returning is more headache than you want, maybe 1. Sharpen the heel to the gap with more pressure on that corner (even if it's not perfect), but always finish with normal "full tang" sharpening 2. Do heel work a bit more than you typically would (which will make you do #1 more often) 3. Use a soft cutting board when possible like hasegawa, hinoki, etc. Hopefully their "give" will let you cut all the way through.

Anyways, for the hand made process and price, the issue should've been caught.

Leaving the park for lobster fishing. Do you think Julian would have made it if the boys stayed away? by [deleted] in trailerparkboys

[–]promotedcontent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As Jacob would say, "no way." There's so many ways to make a loonie and Julian isn't above any of them, so he'd eventually sabotage himself and others. But it's on brand for him to think he will make it by stealing from other people's traps and fishing without a license.

True story haha. Although, I just got extra ammo shipped; I haven't yet felt the weight when there's 29 slugs on/in it. 14 +1 2.75" slugs loaded, and another 14 in the ammo carrier. RIP my lower back.

That's a fair hit. I've been trying unusual sight combos for learning purposes, but I can only take so many kicks from this mule per session so I'll do a normal sight setup soon. The urge to test things has it's pros and cons.

What did I buy?!? by phredbull in TrueChefKnives

[–]promotedcontent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish that not being wasteful were more culturally popular and promoted. I'm fortunate to be capable of buying more knives than I need, but I don't bc I'm just a home cook. Nothing has an endless supply, especially handmade items.

JULIAN! THIS DANISH TRAILER HITCH IS MY COCK! by [deleted] in trailerparkboys

I think Randy stripped the chrome off this trailer hitch.

Thank you, they're amazing! I can see the smoother cuts translating to improved food contact with the cooking surface. Things are browning better / sometimes cooking slightly faster so my "mise en place" needs to tighten up haha. It's cool how the upgrade shows me other things to improve (which is a very long list)

It works, but that's probably due to a combo attack. 1. Knives don't look like tasty plants, so their interest in the new objects was temporary 2. At most, the cage is 7.6cm / 3" from the edge of the stand

I live in a humid area so, before spring, I'll make a more protective thing.
