    Knife sharpening

    The most important thing I learned about sharpening is to sharpen one side until a burr forms along the edge, then switch to the other side and sharpen until you get a burr. At that point the two sides have come together in the sharpest edge possible. Then strop off the burr. Another thing...

    Snubby Kit Gun

    I am a fan of Skeeter Skelton's writing, and I have more than a couple of handguns similar to those he used and liked. I bought a 2" Model 34 square butt because Skeeter discussed his in an article on "Little Guns." It was really neat but I had trouble hitting anything with it. I happened to...

    Can the 25 ACP be taken seriously?

    The way I remember it from the Bond books I read in the 1960s was that in "From Russia with Love," his Beretta .25 caught on his clothes and malfunctioned when he tried to shot the Soviet woman with the poison-tipped blade in her shoe. In the next book, "Dr. No," Bond had been ordered to upgun...
