Last week Jake was able to attend a Boy Scout function and learn how to make a knife and sheath. Of course he didn't want to make just a small regular knife. He decided to make a small machete! He had a GREAT time and we were VERY impressed with his knife making skills!



When Jake got home Dave helped him brand his initials into the sheath.




Check out the deer antler handle...VERY COOL!!

scrape, scrape, scrape -
whoever thought it was a good idea to have these boys sharpen their knives by hand, needs to be tortured! What about an electric sharpener? They couldn't use one of those? I swear I could hear that scraping sound in my sleep for two days!!!

OK, first of all, Jakes branded initials are AWESOME. It has potential for some major branding b.c it looks so cool.
Second, that "knife" - I would say small sword - is way cool. What a fun boy thing to make!
Good job Jake! I'll know when you get rich and famous off your "brand" b.c I'll start seeing it in all the stores.
