Leather Handle
Does anyone know if the stacked leather handles of ka-bar knives are water proof?
I beleive that they are, but I'm not sure or not if I want to take it into the water because I'm afraid the water might not be good for the leather. Thanks
Most are treated to be water-resistant,if not waterproof.If you still have concerns,rub a bit of vaseline into the leather.

Each and every part of a hunting knife is equally important. It is very important to have good quality handle for it. Handles are considered indispensable for the hunters because they provide a strong grip. A strong grip is required for protection and precision. The best hunting knife handles have various features like good shape, sturdiness and a special kind of appearance. Various materials are used for manufacturing hunting knife handles. Titanium, Carbon fiber, fiberglass, Micarta, aluminum, stag and bone are considered as the best kind of materials for making handles for hunting knife.
Stainless steel is also used for making handles. Stainless steel is considered good for making handles because it is resistant to rust and very strong. Therefore, handles made from stainless steel can be used without any fear in high moisture conditions. One thing that is not liked about handles made from stainless steel is that they do not offer a very good grip. Your fingers will find it slippery.
You may have seen various handles that are made from leather. At times, leather is just used for coating the underlying material. This is done for offering a better grip to the user of hunting knife. The price of a handle depends upon various things. Different prices are charged for different hunting knives according to the type of material used in their handles.
If you are looking for a new handle for your knife then you should know about various things which should be looked for in a suitable handle. You should not compromise with the quality of a handle for money. If you do not know much about handles then you may take someone who has experience in buying them, with you. This will help you in getting the right kind of handle for your hunting knife.
The most important thing that should look for while buying a handle is the grip offered by it. The handle of a should offer very strong grip because you will surely face such situations where blood will affect your grip on the handle. You should look for a contoured handgrip while selecting a handle. You should also look for the right kind of balance and weight while purchasing a hunting knife handle.
William loves writing about hunting knives info. The info that he has read says over and over again that you can't overlook the hunting knife handle. It would be shame if you slipped and cut yourself because you didn't buy the right handle for your knife.

Wood Handle
A wood mallet has a cylindrical head 6 in. long and 3 in. in diameter. If the cylindrical handle is 1 in. in?
diameter, how long must it be for the mallet to balance at a point 6 in. from where the handle enters the mallet head? (Assume the unit weight of the wood to be 40lbs per feet cubed.)
Mallet head volume = 6 * 1.5² * π = 42.41 in³
Handle volume = 6 * 0.5² * π = 4.71in³
Volume needed to balance = 47.12 in²
Length = 47.12 / π / 0.5² = 60 in
Total handle length = 60 + 6 = 66 in
Notice that if the density is the same throughout, it doesn't need to be considered.

Weddings are usually highly coordinated activities involving several different vendors, friends, and family all working together to make the day a success. If one fails, the whole wedding is at risk. Because of this you want to find vendors with an excellent track record and make sure your friends and family have what they need to help you. Also, giving enough time to your vendors will also help avoid delays and handle any unexpected surprises. You can ask your vendor how much time they need, but usually by the time you have selected your vendor the schedule is already set. Below are some tips to help you plan for each vendor.
Makeup Artist - Plan for about an hour and a half for the application of the bride's makeup. If your bride's maids are getting makeup too find out if your artist will have a helper or how much longer they will need. Bride's maids will need less time for makeup.
Hair Stylist - Again a Hair Stylist can take another hour and half. If you use the same person for both makeup and hair some time can be saved and you won't have a situation where one professional will be waiting for the other one.
Dressing - It's important to consider how long it will really take to get into that dress. Seldom is it as simple as putting it on and leaving. You will have your hair, nails, makeup done which will require extra care. There will also be about 20 people all running around getting things done or distracting your attention with last minute preparations.
Travel - If you are going to a hair salon or going to the makeup artist, don't forget this little travel because it adds up. Also if you are going from the dressing location to the ceremony in a limo, allow extra time because it takes longer to get everyone in the limo and the trip is slower. Plus the photographer will want to take pictures of you and the bride's maids with the limo, in the limo, etc. It may seem strange to plan for these little delays but in the end this is what ends up delaying the wedding the most.
Photographer - If you want the photographer at the dressing location, you usually only need them 15-30 minutes early. However also consider the time you are actually leaving the dressing location to get to the ceremony. You need to leave time for your photographer to be there a few minutes before the ceremony to do some setup. Your photographer is also going to shoot plenty of formals after the wedding. So plan to have something for your guests to do (cocktail hour) so the photographer can finish as quickly as possible. Normally the formals can take 30 minutes. However, if you have lots of required shots or a very large family plan for much longer. Don't plan for the photographer to leave the reception early either. The time starts to slip and usually the last things at the reception are the cake and the bouquet toss. You don't want to miss the pictures of these.
Videographer - Much of the same applies for video as it does with photography. The videographers usually film the occurrences of the day and don't take your time for things like formals. You should decide if you need before ceremony video or not. In any case the ceremony and reception are key to film if you want a video.
DJ/Band - Make sure the DJ can get into the venue as early as they need to setup the equipment and test the sound. You don't want to delay things because of a microphone problem. Depending on the amount of equipment you should ensure the DJ can start setting up an hour before the reception.
Ceremony Location - You want to make sure the location is accessible early enough for the room to be decorated. Also leave time for video/photographers, musicians, and official to prepare, though they should have enough time assuming they can setup while the decorators do.
Reception Location - Again, leave time for the decoration, video, photographer, and DJ. Also don't forget about the cake decorator and caterers. After your ceremony and formal photographs, you will still need to give the photographers and videographers extra time to setup at the new location. Will you have a temporary bridal room at the reception location where you can wait until your party gets announced? If not, consider taking the scenic route or joining the cocktail hour.
Caterer - It can be much better to have the reception venue do the catering or use the caterer referred by the reception venue because they need to know the location very well and have a good working relationship with the reception staff. Also consider the amount of time it will take to get everyone served. This often goes beyond expectations pushing other activities later in the evening. Usually brides are concerned with the cost difference of buffet and plate service. Find out the estimated serving time of each of these for your number of guests and it can help make your decision easier. Food stations and family style can help speed things up while keeping costs lower than plate service.
No matter what you plan, everything can change. Keeping these things in mind while planning will help your wedding be a huge success.

The reputation is set. The uniqueness is proven. The effectiveness is unquestionable. The Digger Anchor is a real neat gadget for any boater with a boat up to 40 feet long. This anchor requires no chains. It will even hold your boat and your friends boat both in place in rough water.
Donnie Lahr, president of Digger Anchors says, "We were tired of anchors not holding just when the fish started biting, you know the nice "walleye chop" they talk about when the wind come up to break the plain of the water. There is nothing worse than having your anchor drag through your favorite spot. The Digger anchor sets right away and keeps you on target. also when pan fishing near the weed bed it is a pain to have to pull the anchor up with all the weeds wrapped around them. With our patented quick release the weeds and mud stay on the bottom where they belong, not in your boat."
The design is creative in that the "diggers" on the anchor keep doing just that - keeping the flukes digging into the bed. The flukes do an easy "release" when you are ready to move on. Is it hard to pull anchor? Not if you follow the instructions carefully. Sure enough, just a "jerk" on the rope when pulling up anchor will drop flukes. All mud, sand and weeds will stay in the water.
A jerk on the rope vertically above the anchor releases the flukes and the whole anchor comes up with no sweat. If it is fouled on something like logs or rocks, then you have to let out enough rope to get the pull nearly horizontal - jerk the rope and the flukes straighten out and here comes the anchor. It will not release when the rope is jerked at an angle. The literature is clear, and shows good illustrations of how to do it right.
The Digger Anchor comes in three sizes and in 2001 was improved from its original design in order to provide greater digging and holding power. The advancement worked - it was truly "new and improved."
For lakes and river use, you can get a 10 pound size for boats up to 17 feet, a 12 pounder for boats up to 20 feet; or a 15 pound anchor for boats up to 40 feet. The 15 pound anchor also works on pontoon boats up to 30 feet. Salt water models include only the 12 and 15 pound anchors and have shown 5000 hours of saltwater resistance. The fluke release system is hidden in the aluminum handle.
In 2005,the Company introduced the Digger 2, a lower cost anchor with the same holding ability, without the trip mechanism. This anchor will set on a 2-1angle requiring very little rope to get great holding power. It makes an excellent second anchor for the larger boats and has great holding for smaller boats up to 30 feet.
Once in a while a real great idea comes along. With continuing innovation and product improvement, the great idea becomes a truly neat gadget. The digger anchor is one of those. You can learn more about it at http://www.diggeranchor.com The company sells direct to retailers so shop around and find the best deal on the digger anchor that is best for you.
