NOW you can eat more steak. When I get one, I'm gonna use it to make tough cuts of beef, pork, etc more tender. I'd like to get a carbon steel frying pan. They are supposed to work like cast iron, only not nearly as heavy. It will finish off the sear of the meat nicely.

Wonder if I could coax a TENDER chicken breast out of a Sous Vide.

Still thinking about this bag, BUTit looks like the inner liner is a kind of plastic. It would shred and crack within a year, plus plastic is crinkle and cheesy.

Think I'd prefer a mostly/all canvas bag, for looks, convenience and size/weight. The leather bags are a little too nice and eyecatching. And expensive and heavy.

That Bag Of Holding is nice man. Main thing is it is HUGE so can hold cloths etc... Not a jacket or anything but it is a nice size.

I've seen it before... And I've never seen it in stock. I'd consider it if it were, but they don't even know when it will be in stock again.

Doesn't look so cool carrying it though.. If I'm gonna carry a man-purse, I wanna look like I just swung down off of a pony express horse :thumbsup:

Got my shredder. It was not on sale, but I got it anyway. Came today. I ran a paper grocery bag full of old mail through it already. Chewed it all up in about 30 min. It even has a cooling fan that kicks on after a bit so it wont overheat.

What, not water-cooled? :hyper:

:biggrin:

Glad you got what you needed. It's great to save money, but sometimes it's worth paying regular price just to have it and start using it now.

Yeah. It's much needed.

Days later,still thinking of this. The man made liner material gives me pause, but that's the only thing. Not seeing anyone complain about it. Wish it were all canvas with a little leather here and there. Not seeing anything better, in canvas, for twice the price.

Paladin, take a squint at that bag's picture again, if you would. See anything that would frighten YOU off?

The Bag of Holding is still out of stock with no ETA. I'll likely buy a second bag in the future. This one is on the large side, and will be good for Nashville trips and hospital stays. The Bag of Holding looks like it might be better for everyday use, if I decide I need one for say, colostomy supplies. It can hold a lot, but is light and small-ish when not filled up.


EDITED TO ADD :
Still interested in your final take, Paladin, but maybe I'll wait on the Bag of Holding. I've been looking at that damned thing for years though, and it's never in stock.

Bag Of Holding is not fancy at all. It is canvas and about what you expect for that. Has nice pockets though.
Great for holding stuff but yeah canvas. i :) i

I didn't mind the canvas myself, I was more about function over form. If you want something a bit "nicer" then BOH may not be good.

That one looks nice dude. I think that is a good alternative man. I was looking at that one for myself I said. or thought I said.
Probably as good as the BOH.
I would get the 17.3 version.

Usually I got for black but I think I like the olive for this. Black may be a bit boring in this case.

case.. get it.... i :) i

I don't know if this is getting annoying or not. I'm losing perspective.

Anyway, I'm sitting in a hospital bed for going on 7 weeks now, I have nothing to talk about.

I think I like this. The man made material liner crinkles, which is a bummer, but no one complains about it being a cheap, flimsy material that easily shreds. Think it's a heavy ish material with fibers running through it for strength. I like the pockets for everyday use and for trips to Nashville.

It's BIG. Saw a few YouTube reviews.

Biggish is good, too small and it really looks like a manpurse, especially on someone my size. It's really big though.

So is the Bag of Holding. Huge. I kind of think they fill each other's role. If I get one, I won't want the other. I'd probably want something smaller if I got a second bag.

Just passing the time...
