I was not feeling well today, as a matter of fact for the past 3 days, but then I got something in the mail that really cheered me up and made me feel better than any pill I could take. Our very good friend David (edge213) saw in my second book a SOG knife with a Black G10 handle and thought I might like the same one only with the wood handle. Admittedly I don't know the different woods but it looks like Walnut ::shrug::

This knife and the other one will have a special display location in our new house. Thank you very much David, I'm honored... ::ds::

The postal carrier rang my door bell today. I wasn't expecting any packages but there it was between the storm door and the entry door. A package from DM11. What the ..................????

I'm not sure what I did to deserve this but David bombed me with a SAK Victorinox Farmer in Blue Alox. I'm flabbergasted and appreciate it very much. The Alox SAK's are high on my list of favorites and I didn't have one of these. A thousand thank you's my friend. It fits right in with my other three Alox Farmers, green, orange & silver. ::tu:: (besides blue is my favorite color from my youth)

Your welcome buddy! Glad you like it. I meant to send it to you a while back after i saw a post of I think your green Farmer where you said you really liked Alox SAK's. I kept forgetting till the other day my memory popped back on and I got it in the mail.

I may know something about memory abandoning you. It's a real beauty and I appreciate it a bushel and a peck. It's laying here on my desk where I can coon finger and chicken eye it at will. It's a stellar gift and I very much appreciate it. Thanks again.

Congratulations, Jerry, and a well-done bombing run by David! ::tu:: It also serves to remind me that I should obtain a blue Alox SAK to carry sometime.
