Cool cant beat the feeling you get on the first trad kill. One thing i like about it the one you get 30 years from now, the feeling will be the same

Yes, a pass through...first year with the Snuffer, what a hole, not just three slices, but a wide open hole. Hit the Snuffer with a hone and its ready to go again.
