That's purdy!(Temp thread hi-Jack). The small knife handle doesn’t do the wood justice. Here’s a nice example of a Finn Artic Birch Stock. The larger piece of wood really shows off the grain.

I've never had a chigger. Not even sure what to look for.
Bump, bump, bump... Another one bites the dust...
Mine usually stop itching after 5-7 days. The trick is to not scratch. The ensuing damage only prolongs the itching.They are very small and red. They hang out in clumps or balls on the ends/tops of vegetation just like ticks. As the others have said when you get them you F’n know for at least 3 weeks to a month. They kinda look like clover mites.
Congrats!!

You've never lived til you get one in your bellybutton.You must have the will power of a god! I used to get them on my sock line when we had property in federalsburg. As soon as i hit the shower and the hot water touch the bites holy god i couldn’t not scratch.
In fact i think the US Government should use chiggers when interrogating terrorist. It obviously won’t kill them and anyone who won’t talk after 3-4 days of not being able to scratch the bites obviously isn’t talking period.
Nice blade. I wish i knew that much about mine. My friend bought it for me because she knows I hunt and it had a stag on it. Lol. All I know is it is sharp as hell and performed as well as my razorlite but better, because cleaning it is so much easier.

Took a nice doe this morning. Walked in the woods at 6:00 sharp. Let the arrow fly at 7:13. Pretty good morning.
I've posted this before - here's how you abate chiggers. Understand that they inject some crap in you that make your flesh more or less rot and they eat the skank that comes out.
1) scratch them. open up the wound.
2) get in the shower. Wash up. Get under the tub faucet or use the shower 'hose' and start washing down the chigger bites.
3) turn up the water temperature. turn it up until its nearly scalding and unbearable. This is making the skank under your skin almost liquid.
4) flip the water to use cold. wash the bites down vigorously.
5) get out of the shower and dry off.
Wait a minute or two and you will see you skin (contacting form the cold water) push the skank out. The itching will stop for about 8 hours. Do it again in 8 hours. Will probably take three times and all the skank will be out and you will be over it. about a day and a half.
This is the only relief I've ever found.

LOLA Red hot butter knife will work for the really bad bites.
You can close the truck door on your thumb right before you press it on to keep your mind off it when you do it.
