Thought I would leave this here for anyone searching victorinox products in the future. We ordered the knives via amazon and added the boning knife as recommended by others in this thread. Just for grins, we also ordered the Victorinox kitchen shears.
These knives fit our hands well and were extremely sharp directly out of the box. We are very happy with them thus far in the short time we have owned them.
Thanks to those of you that took the time to reply!!!
Saw him live at the Centroplex in 1980. His warmup bands were Def Leopard and The Scorpions!! Still my all time favorite concert. :dude:

edited to add, he entered the stage by swinging on a rope, as mentioned above. Epic!
I will do this, thank you.

Yesterday I ordered the 8" Chef knife, Paring knife with 4" blade, the carving knife with a 6" blade, and the bread/slicing knife. All with the black fibrox handles.

Which of the boning knives would you recommend, meaning straight or curved, narrow, flexible, etc? There are several options within the classic (fibrox handle) family.
Thanks all. Placed an order on Amazon today. Looking forward to checking them out.
Thank you Trout, I will reach out to them.
Great advice, thank you. We definitely want the 8” chef knife, I will start with that one.
I am ok with waiting. Would like to see how they feel in my hands (and my wife’s) before purchasing them
Wife and I are leaning towards purchasing a few victorinox kitchen knifes for everyday cooking. Are there any stores in or near the baton rouge area that sell them and have them in stock? Have googled extensively but no luck.
Stay strong, ignore the douches.

Outstanding, well written article! Thank you for sharing this. I am sharing with friends and family.

I have a pa12 and an outback. I am a bigger fella and prefer the pa12. Much more comfortable and spacious for fishing. My son and wife use the outback when they are able to make it, and they are perfectly comfortable in it.
They have definitely gotten expensive, I bought the pa12 on clearance from the backpacker, and bought the outback used.

That happened to me on my 2017 Hobie PA12. On the PA12, there is a cleat/keeper on the inside of the hull that is part of the
molded plastic hull. The chord that connects the cheek block to the inside front of the kayak had somehow slipped off of the molded plastic keeper.

I don't know enough about this stuff to give a more concise answer, but the folks on the Hobie Forum board were very helpful and pointed me in the right direction.

Thank y'all for the feedback!! I will pass this info on to pops.
My dad is interested in installing a power pro on his bass boat. where is the best place to purchase one and have it installed in the baton rouge area? I think his is a 21' aluminum bass tracker.
Has anyone on here, or anyone you know personally, received the $800 reimbursement for a generator without proving a medical need?

I have done this a few times and caught limits of reds. Most of these trips were at Fourchon launching from the public launch, and then fishing north west of the launch. The water was much higher than normal and the reds were in a feeding frenzy. The last time I did this, I caught 5 keeper reds in the same spot in 30 minutes. I would definitely go this weekend if I wasn't committed to other stuff.

edited to add: I was kayak fishing
I believe that the skimmer flap is supposed to lay flat as long as the pump is running. When the pump stops, it should float up to prevent the debris from going back into the pool.
