That's good.  I see the arrow has that special mushroom point on it.
Funny, when you said mushroom hunting setup, I had envisioned shirt and pants with pictures of all different kinds of mushrooms on them. :luff:
I do like that knife.  More photos of it would be good.  That looks like a masterpiece.

Not only are they perfect for skinnin mushrooms, but they are the perfect size for a patch knife.

I don't use them on mine John. But I'd be willing to bet, there's someone out there that has tried it. But just think of the size of the ramrod. Jeez!!!

A little video I did a few years ago on the perils of hunting mushrooms.
