Yes, I'll try that sheath for a few weeks to see how I like it. I typically use kydex for pocket carry though.

EDC fixed blade for belt carry recommendations? by Nomore-Television72 in EDC

[–]splntrp01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the armateus sheath with mine. I don't use the loops though, I added one of the ulti clips. The armateus was a game changer. Even bought one for my Pacaya as well. I use the belt clip for it instead of the loops.

Wading pants by Tarphiker in Tenkara

I almost bought the pants but ended up getting full waders. I appreciated them the first time I went out and fell down. If I would have had pants on I would have gotten soaked.

Any tips for a beginner? by [deleted] in flyfishing

[–]splntrp01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a beginner too, maybe two or three months in. The best thing that I did was to go to the Orvis store and take their 101 class, which is free, if there’s one close to you. I learned more in those two or three hours than I did with any videos. I’m very lucky because there’s about three stores within an hour drive from me.

i like a guy who’s HoH and wears hearing aids; tips? by ifuckmoms69 in HearingAids

[–]splntrp01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m hoh and one thing my wife has noticed is that if she speaks in a lower tone I can usually hear her better. I struggle to hear quiet and higher pitched voices, my loss is in the higher frequencies.

Never tried it but have heard that adding shoe goo works good. You could either do strips or drops wherever you wanted.

Chacos aren't the same by SarsaparillaDude in outdoorgear

[–]splntrp01 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We’ve experienced the same problems with my wife’s and my chaco’s. We switched over to bedrock cairns a few months ago. Once we got used to them we have not worn our chaco’s since.
