RE: Hand crafted leather sheath

in OCD5 years ago

Hey there, thanks for responding.

Yeah, I have a couple machetes, one in the shape of a Roman sword - A Gladius. What can I say, I like sharp things. Lol.

See image below.

I'm glad you feel I can assist with your english. Never fail to contact me if there's a term or phrase I use that you don't understand, I will think more favourably if you do actually; It shows you want to improve your understanding of things.

Some of the things I say may be specific to Australia, slang I mean, but I'm always happy to explain anything to you. I'm not here to discombobulate you after all.

(Ok, that was a bit smart-ass of me. Lol - Discombobulate means to confuse. )

I just upvoted this comment from steempeak and it seemed to work so I'm not sure why yours isn't. I've never had any problems upvoting through steempeak. Maybe log out and back in? See if that makes a difference. Maybe they're changing nodes or some other techy thing that I am not aware of.

Thanks for commenting mate, always a pleasure to hear form you.

That's a beautiful sword, and that's a wonderful hobby, collecting sharp things.

When I saw Discombobulate I thought, right away:

"You're kidding me... that word doesn't exist"

The word exists indeed. Hope you don't change the way you write for what I said about following your English. For me, the way you write is perfect now.

I had to go to Steemit directly to vote. May be I have a problem with the Linux platform I'm using (Puppy Linux).

Greetings from a far-off land!

Haha, yeah it exists, and I was being a smart-ass. 😂 I write how I write and won't change...To be honest I try to find a balance when I write for steem. I like to write like I talk, and also add a few Australian slang words and phrases here and there also. It depends on the subject-matter. If it's a more serious post then I write that way I guess. I also try not to use big words where possible.

I do a lot of things in the outdoors, hiking, camping, hunting, culling, kayaking etc..I've always had the need for a knife and have many. Naturally that sometimes turns into a hobby of collecting them and whilst I don't have very many, the ones I have mean something to me.

One of my favourites is a World War One bayonet. It goes on the end of a Lee Enfield SMLE .303 rifle (which I also have) and saw service to 1918 in the war in the hands of an Australian soldier. It's one of my prized possessions. For the history of it. (I shoot the gun sometimes too.)

Anyway, I'm glad you're enjoying my posts. 🙂 Have a good weekend.
