Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Knock when you believe your hand has reached its greatest potential. Begin the showdown by revealing your cards to the group. Declare the lowest scorer as loser. Declare the highest scorer as winner. Declare the last player standing as winner of the game.

Answer: As soon as you have reached as close to 31 as you believe you can, knock on the table. All other players then have one final turn exchanging cards with the window. If your hand is exactly 31, knock and declare that you have 31. Players do not receive another turn and you show your cards to the group. Everyone else loses and forfeits a life. This can happen at anytime, even after another player has already knocked to begin the final round. The player with the cards of the same suit closest to totaling 31 wins the game. In case of tie, the player with the highest-ranking cards wins. For example the combination Ace, Jack, and 4 equals 25 as does a King, Queen, and 5 combination. However the Ace has a higher rank than the King. The Ace, Jack, 4 hand beats the King, Queen 5 hand. If the tie continues, the second highest cards are compared (Jack and Queen in the case of the previous example), and so on until a winner is determined. The player with the lowest total loses and forfeits a life. Once a player loses all three lives they are eliminated from the game and may not move on to the next hand. In the event that one player knocks but another ends with the highest score in the final round, the knocker loses a life. Whether the prize is money, bragging rights, a personal favor or a boost in self-esteem, winning is always fun. Collect cards, reshuffle, switch dealer to the left and repeat the steps above until all but one have been eliminated. The amount of rounds per game will change depending on how many people are playing. More players increase game length as there are more lives to be lost.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Take the knife out of the vise. Carve and shape the handle with a belt sander. Sand and polish the scales. Seal the handle, if desired. Remove the tape from the blade.

Answer:
Once the epoxy has set, undo the vise and pull the knife out. Do not remove the tape from the blade just yet. Keep sanding the scales until you reach the metal part of the tang. If you have any lines leftover from when you traced the tang onto the scales, be sure to sand that off too. At this point, you can also sand the edges of the handle so that they are more rounded and comfortable to hold. Begin sanding the scales with 220-grit sandpaper. Once the wood is smooth, move onto 400-grit sandpaper. Finish off with a buffer until the scales are polished to your liking. For an even nicer finish, you can apply 1 coat of de-waxed shellac and 2 coats of an oil-based polyurethane sealer. Buff the finish after it dries. How long the finish takes to dry depends on the brand that you are using, so read the label carefully. This can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days. Your knife is now complete and ready to use. If you notice any epoxy on the blade, you can scrape it off with a craft blade, but make sure that you go along the length of the blade. You can also try dissolving it with acetone.
