Siochain posted:.45-70 is used a lot (well, a lot for what the round is) in bear hunting - its got incredible stopping power. Bigger than most people shoot, but not unheard of. I love lever-action .45-70's, and that's on my wishlist (for when other expenses aren't expensing anymore). My first deer kill was with a .45-70 lever gun two years ago. It was fun, and the leverevolution ammo was light enough to not destroy the meat. A+ would hunt with again.

Tell us about your shave kit slidebite. I recently took SSSwitch into Kent of Inglewood's when I needed to get some things, and, I'm paraphrasing here, he said "it's nice to see there are people in this world as weird about shaving as I am about god awful Japanese econoboxes". Also I hope you are healing, late night bleeding is never fun to wake up to.

slidebite posted:You'll be first on the list SSS. I'm a big fan of D.R. Harris' "Windsor" flavoured soap and aftershave. The Arlington is nice too, milder scent. My grandmother gave me her father's razor a few years ago, I had used almost exclusively electric up until that point in my life. It was great to learn on, but I could never quite get it as sharp as I wanted, turns out it has an ever so slight bend in the blade, so it's just an heirloom now. This new one has been amazing so far. Sorry great grandpa

Yeah if I were to heat it I could probably fix it, or totally re grind it. But it's a 'silver steel' blade made in Sheffield. I'm not sure exactly when, but the box has a "by appointment to the king" mark on it so it's at minimum 70 years old, and given that my grandma is 85, I would guess it's closer to the century+ mark. And doing either of those things would ruin the nice etched label on the blade surface. I mean it's not like it's unusable, I used it for years and did OK, but it's nice to have a blade I can keep properly sharp.

poo poo man if you beat someone with a tennis racket that would hurt like crazy. Especially if they're not suspecting it.

That's a shame, I kind of like some of the stuff velocity does. Sure, there's a lot of worthless GUYS WE GOTTA GET THIS BUILD DONE BEFORE THE BIG AUCTION, THRASH THRASH THRASH reality TV horseshit. But there's usually at least one or two shows worth watching every day.
