Awww geeze, not another blog!



Welcome to A Fine Blade!

This blog will focus one of my lifelong passions and one of man's most basic tools - the knife!

As time and events permit we'll tiptoe into other territory where we can use the knife as a metaphor in discussions about current events and have a little politically incorrect fun.

Because you see, knives rank just below guns as the most politically incorrect subject on the web today.

Guns & Knives = Bad. Gay Marriage & Recreational Drug Use = Good

We'll see if we can't have some fun with that.

So stay tuned, and welcome aboard!

December 2025 Update

Here I am again, making excuses. It's late December, 2025, about a week away from Christmas, and it's occurred to me that this blog needs some serious attention. Not new posts, per-se (although there's going to be more of those coming in the new year), but in cleaning up stuff I've posted in the past. This comes down mainly to fixing broken links, replacing photos that no longer load properly, and doing some minor grammar updates on posts I think are important.

You see, I will finally retire in early January 2026. My kids tell me I've threatened to retire too many times for them to take me seriously this go-around. So to prove how serious I am about hanging things up, I've gone ahead and filed for Social Security, and I've even formally notified my employer that I will, in fact, retire on January 9th. Even they didn't take me seriously, at first.

This blog has been put aside for several years as I followed other interests. However, I've decided that, since I no longer need to play nice and bite my digital tongue on issues like firearms, politics, morality and other fun stuff, I'll re-energize this blog as a more 'pithy' outlet for my thoughts. 

So stay tuned for more. More knives, more guns, more shooting, more fishing. More of everything you love... well, OK, more of what I love!

Stay sharp
