Ah yes.

Refer to my previous statement. Or, considering the theme of the forum...knives out! Or that other bush whacker thing you posted. That'd do the trick.

It's even got a custom designed snake head remover on the back side ::tu::

That's real cool btw. At first you'd think novelty, but then you see the leather stack handle and look closer and realize it's built like a tank.

This Rite Edge is made in China, but my Grampa gave it to me, and it's well suited for the job, so I brought it with on a foraging hike today. My family and I walked some trails on what is called the Niagara Escarpment. Gathered hickory nuts and wild plums.

Great post, great picture, I researched Niagara escarpment, thanks for the enlightenment.
So, "chicken of the woods" mushroom?

Yep. Tastes like chicken. Well actually the flavor was mild, almost tasteless. It's a meaty texture like chicken though, and anything is good battered and deep fried.
I found it just at a local park, and it got us in the foraging mood, so we went on a hike.
