    Upon further review, it might be best if you just use this one thread for selling your items. Keeping them all in one place will make it easier for people to find.
    ok no problemo,,just thought it might save bandwidth and give them the details. If they are truly interested they can send me a private message.

    Lefties - you cannot send your link via private message either. It violates the well established rules we have. Again - if you want to include a link to your site, you can include it in your signature. That is the only place it can appear.

    The stick food was generally monkey meat.

    I'm from the Philippines and just recently bought items from lefties. He sent me poor quality items. nylon sheaths were worn and looked like they were chewed on by rats. blades were poorly finished. i've been sending him messages asking if he could direct me to his supplier so that maybe that supplier could remedy the problem. lefties just ignored me. i do not trust this guy.

    I also used to have one that I picked up during the training. It would just slice through the bamboo where our USMC Issue would bounce off the stuff.

    Rebel - if you're talking JEST school, I've been there and done that as well. Good training!

    I learned the art of using a Butterfly Knife from a little, but a bit high strung, Filipino girl. No one to mess with!

    Now about the grilled pork on a stick (monkey meat), I agree it's some of the best eating over there.

    I don't think I understand eating an unidentified meat speared by a stick. Now, I'll be the first to admit that any meat could be any old thing masquerading as something else. However, I have the option and clarity of conscience to believe it is exactly what is advertised. To willingly devour some unknown meat would have to require a generous, perhaps copious, quantity of alcohol or near starvation. To take that a bit further, no amount of alcohol would convince to me devour Balut. In fact, starvation would be the better choice. I couldn't keep it down anyway.

    A high strung female with a butterfly knife. You like to live dangerously even for a Marine.

    That grilled "meat" was good, but I have to admit that I had a good amount of San Miguel beer first. There's nothing like popping open a San Miguel, wiping off the bottle cap rust, and downing it with a good helping of "monkey meat". The grilling sauce (not BBQ sauce) is the best!
