Rookie and GSPTopdog, those are fabulous. Love the T Valley, love the Gerber. Sweet shots too.

Since covid rats are getting bolder, less traffic and pressure. Coming out in broad daylight as if to mock me, so I blasted it with a Crossman pump pellet pistol. Sweet gun and cheap if you don't know them check them out. Very handy. And a Schrade.

Re: Knife Photography
Nice shot Iman. Your Crossman is obviously capable of shooting minute of rat.
Re: Knife Photography
That's the one, got mine about 20 yrs ago, was one of the best $45 I ever spent. Fired thousands of rounds and the air never leaks and shoots like it was new. I've had a Crossman pump rifle and pistol and they were worth more than I paid. They last decades too.

Thanks Quick, yeah it's a capable pellet gun. I shoot about 35-40 feet away from the rats if I see one on the ground under the bird feeder. 5-6 pumps is all needed. They are getting more brazen and don't even run anymore when they hear the door open. I can tell their behavior has changed and they seem to be getting bigger. This one was about as big as the grey squirrels around here and noticabley bigger than the average one I catch in traps. Never used to see them mid day, usually at dusk. Now any time of day.

Re: Knife Photography
Iman, I don't know if you will want to take the time, but you might consider tracking down a State biologist's phone number explaining the behavioral changes you are observing. He might have some ideas as to the causes. I've made that call in another state concerning bird populations; it was a worthwhile call.
Re: Knife Photography
And a Schrade... for skinning and to flesh out?

It was 112 in Southern Arizona today... I have to get up early to take a few pictures before the sun starts to scorch everything

Re: Knife Photography
I was born here, raised here and then moved off to other places... years later I ended up back here... ... But the past year and a 1/2 has been extra dry and hot Now northern Arizona is looking a lot better these days...Quick Steel wrote: ↑Tue Jun 15, 2021 12:10 am TOPDOG, I lived about an hour east of Tuscon for a few years.

Re: Knife Photography
Yes, up in the mountains is much better. Far, far, north of Phoenix.
Re: Knife Photography
Ha ha ha, that's a good one. Nope. It was just in my pocket so I threw it in the shot. I just bag 'em and garbage can them.

Re: Knife Photography
Cool shot Squach. And those Canoe scales are cool too, looks very 3D to me, like it you could reach down in, like each ring goes down lower. Very interesting pattern and trick on the eye. What do they call that scale? Nice one.

Re: Knife Photography
That has to be one of the most unique handles I've seen in a while.
