Looks like a 1.5/3 drop?
Think it’s just the angle. This was the dealer photo. It has been raining too hard here in ATL to get any good pics the past day. My explorer had over 236,700 miles on it and things just kept going wrong with it. The latest was a pretty significant leak which was pouring some water on me when I cornered. That was the last straw.

Got a great deal on this new 2019 f150 Xlt. About 30% off of sticker after all the rebates.

I love my 18 quad cab. Lease is up shortly so I think I'll go white this time around. Thinking about putting a Ford Performance 1.5/3 drop on it.
 
Let's be honest for a minute... Zombies are coming! To put your head in the sand and think otherwise just puts you at the front of the food chain when the inevitable happens!

Now I deal with A LOT of people on a daily basis and without stating the obvious... when the Zombie Apocalypse does descend upon us I'm going to make it just fine through the first several waves without the necessary Zombie Killing Tools... for awhile! (There are A LOT of stupid people out there just begging to be eaten first! ... oh damn, I said it!)

So for the last several years I've been looking for a Zombie Slay'n Blade ... I've watched Walking Dead so I had some good guidance... but until a little over a year ago I just hadn't found the right Blade Maker! But FIND him I DID!

Christmas arrived just a bit late but on January 2nd I received the ultimate for Zombie Slay'n!

Until the Apocalypse makes an appearance I plan on using this for chopping up kindling and such when we are out and about! Or just being an intimidating MOFO at the truck stops! (Good God I'm making excuses for buying this thing to a group who spend thousands and thousands on poker chips!)

(Don't worry @Poker Zombie and @Mrs Poker Zombie you're the nicest zombies and I'm glad to call you friends! ... I'll just be waiting for the mean ones to show up! Never you fret!)

Having watched several of his amazing videos on YouTube, I sent an email asking if Freerk Wieringa, an extremely talented blacksmith out of the Netherlands, would be willing to make me a Khukuri blade and he agreed! 13 months later it arrived!

Due to my recent binge watch of Game of Thrones and my, now understandable, fear of White Walkers, I asked Freerk if he would make it out of Valyrian Steel... he said, well, that's actually Damascus Steel but yes. Good because I wanted @k9dr to know that I could deal with any White Walkers that make an appearance at his meet up! (although he IS a White Walker when he's sitting next to me at a poker table!)

Not to worry! I won't be taking my "knife" to a gunfight either... mainly because there won't be a Shootout at the Post this year! @Mr Tree (but I'm over that! Not really!)

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and a wonderful New Year to everyone!

Hope you enjoy!!!

This video link is of the actual blade that he made for me which I thought was pretty cool.

Being nosy and you can tell me to keep it to myself but what would the cost of something like this be?

It wasn’t cheap... but I view it like I do CPC poker chips... sometimes you just look at the amount of time, effort, artistry that goes into making something and say, I simply HAVE to have that! If you do or already have viewed the entire video you just come away with an amazing appreciation of his work. He has a fairly recent video where he makes a lions head as a part of the handle... it’s incredible.
When I agreed to the price I looked at it as art... one of a kind... priceless. Not an answer but encourage you to contact him if you are interested after you determine what you want him to make.

Stunning. Thanks for sharing. Have fun with that beautiful piece of artwork and engineering.
 
Wife says we need a place to sit. But we have couches and chairs coming, what if I get a bean bag? Sure hon, sounds great.

Queue French delivery guy cussing or laughing, not sure, as we carry in 20 of these boxes.

Thanks for sharing that, I love watching blacksmithing videos. That's a great home protector right there!

Doesnt beat my 4' piece of half inch rebar sharpened at one end with an athletic tape handle at the other...I can afford to outfit the whole crew for $30 and nobody needs to get in close.
 

Galaga is easily my favorite game. But I've been having fun with some other oldies but goodies too -- Dig Dug, Donkey Kong, Tempest, Tron, Ms. Pac Man -- I think those are my next tier of favorites :)
