Not to toot my own horn as I am known to do, but I am a bad ass with an axe. Not sure if you saw my Facebook video of me throwing the big wood splitter one handed and stick the (dead) tree from about 8 yards out. For a while I was buying a new toy from coldsteel.com every pay check. Various type of tomahawks, a cane sword, viking sword, boar spear, a dozen or so knives, giant non return boomerang, various clubs. For home defense I think I like my boar spear best. Imagine breaking into some dudes house and a mother +++++er charges you from the bedroom with a boar spear and boner? Terrifying. This was going to be my next purchase but it has been out of stock for years now it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NVGiant Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 So I am not so sure there isn't a fair comparison now with Biles. Djokavic, who many believe is the GOAT himself, had quite a meltdown in singles, then withdrew with an injury from the mixed doubles bronze match over the weekend leaving his partner "heartbroken." Every athlete has a breaking point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSF Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 That transgendered weightlifter from New Zealand that people got their panties in a twist over? Failed all 3 qualifying lifts. Only one of the 13 competitors. In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.
