    Meat cutters

    You just need to force the meat in at a steady pace 😃 Had mine a good 5 years now and no problems.

    Meat cutters

    And don't tip the fat enriched water, down the drain, or you might need to get Dynorod out. Ideally warm the meat to at least room temperature to soften it, makes life a lot easier...

    Drennan Acolyte Specimen Rod

    So at this very moment in the shops today the Drennan Acolyte specimen in 14ft and 15ft, is holding the crown 👑. Is there anything else to match it?
