P O S Roundtable 2019

[Jody744]

As far as I know there is now a package headed from the Deep South to Canada. Hope it makes it across the border, will pm tracking info when I get it. (Perks of my job, a concierge that goes to the P.O. on Friday’s for employees!)

[Sundog Knives]

With a straight face while still plugging my nose on another frigid Dakota Territory evening, I can attest to the opening and examination of Jon's shipment from West Virginia as one of the highlights of my knife collecting experience. Wife and kids were present as I came home from work and we huddled around the heavy priority mail box curious about its contents. Son, 8+, rushed to get his pocket knife I gave him last year and we proceeded to open it with wonderment, awe and laughs. Eighteen knives in total and the most beautiful pile of sh*t.

Son wants two of more from the group of course and Daughter liked one for herself as well. Wife watched with amazement and indicated she had one picked out she liked too.

(Heck I might even know a knife repairman around town *cough* Olde Cutler to fix up a few of these well loved knives into users once again!)

Dales package arrived today. Inside was a big ol pile of ......................knives in Charmin Ultra Soft wrap. Dale also included a couple good'uns. The Kershaw fires great, the Eat-N-Tool will be handy and the little Camco is sweet. Thanks buddy. I'll have fun for a while sorting through that pile.

[doglegg]

Sundog that picture of your kids enjoying the knives made my day. Not a POS to them. I need to keep their wonder. Happy for you that you have them.
(and that they have you).

WOW, now that is a PILE!!

[r redden]

Randy, I have sent you some pretty nice knives over the years. This package won't have anything like that in it...

Thankfully, with all the "crap" I stuffed in that flat rate box, I only had to pay the standard shipping fee. No special EPA permits, hazardous packaging, etc.

Tracking is 9505515854739046391678

Enjoy????

Glenn when I send you a POS you always send me a beautiful modded slipjoint I hope your not expecting me to do the same with this.

[Jporter1974]

Ed, I cannot say much now after seeing the kids enjoying them, except, very cool ...and if you really, and I mean really want to make those knives look great .. I have a new book coming out, called : How to shine a turd...it's less than 10.00... its only..9.99...plus..9.99s/h...
Kindest regards and God bless you and your family ~ Jon

News:
Willey Camaro, my brother, has generously added a small portion of **** to your pile rotten. It should be in the mail within a few day. Then all bets are off. I take no responsibility for the quality of the content. Open at your own risk.

[zoogirl]

I have to say, after viewing some of the piles of...piles...I don’t feel quite so guilty! My “gift” isn’t as large as some but what it lacks in volume, it makes up in virulence!
I may hear the reaction all the way up here!

[rexstubbins]

Alrighty then Treefarmer! A real heavy load is heading East from the west coast to the East coast starting today. I had to get high & wide rail clearance but now that it's approved it's on its way.

[rexstubbins]

Well Mr. Kennedy I would have to call your crap a little higher than standard. Much appreciated sir!

[Tsar Bomba]

Well, Jon, I finished assembling your PU-parcel, got enough tape on it to prevent any stank from slipping out, tossed it in the trunk with a pair of large tongs, hopped in the car...and got to the post office only to discover that it's closed. This pile is gonna have to fester for the weekend in my trunk because I'm NOT bringing it back inside.

So we'll make a go of it Monday morning, and by then I might just need to abandon the car in their parking lot and run... Will send along tracking info once generated so you will have full warning of when your town will start experiencing the side effects of having this stuff nearby. Enjoy living on Three Pile Island!

Bad news Tony. Monday is President's day. Post Office is closed.

Congrats Doug, that pile doesn't look very stinky to me. Must be something there I'm not seeing.

I agree. Looks nicer than some of the stuff in my, er, “collection”!

Noooooooo....

They're gonna have to bury my car with the nuclear waste in Nevada....

[glennbad]

Well David, you certainly know how this game is played. Your knives came wrapped in some special anti-funk kind of material. Thank goodness for that, because these babies were STINKERS. I tried to look at them as parts knives for some future project, but I was just left holding my nose and scratching my head!

I now understand why you sent them out so quickly!

[#goldpan]

A little while ago I heard the spinning of wheels and gravel being slung! I saw the back end of a USPS truck careen around the corner, tires squealing and its engine straining to make max horse power. The driver was yelling and pumping his fist out the side door of his truck as it disappeared from view. The door to the mail box was still open and brown liquid was dripping from a partially frozen box that was sitting with my mail. Ken's POS package from the North Pole had arrived! I placed the package in a plastic bag and found a good safe place to open it. I opened the box with care and was pleasantly surprised to find that there was only a little bit of POS Poo in the box. That little bit was almost overwhelming though! The rest of the POS pile was kinda nice

The Schrade liner lock at the top is nice and I'm going to put the credit card knife in my wallet. The tipped Kershaw will be re-tipped and cleaned up. The little knife with the sheath is kinda cool as well. The Ka-Bar lock back is packing what looks like a Case spey blade that will without a doubt make it into next years POS roundtable. The HRT boot knife has some very nasty looking rubber handles that I think are going to be replaced with wood or bone and put back into service! Thanks Ken! This is a lot fun as always. I hope that the package that I sent you doesn't ruin your day with the bad smells and nasty runny stuff that made its way into that pile of poo I sent your way!

[kennedy knives]

Well Mr. Kennedy I would have to call your crap a little higher than standard. Much appreciated sir!

Glad you didn't take to much offense on them first year with the POS will get better on the next one

My mailman dropped off a pound and a half of poo from Goldpan today.
Some are pretty stinky for sure but, he also slipped a couple decent canoes into the mix!

The spoon and fork knifes look interesting. Who made them? But yes too much of that stuff look like too much of my stuff.

[jerryd6818]

Tony111 -- Your crap hit my mailbox today. Literally splattered all over it. Took me 45 minutes to get it cleaned up enough so the postal carrier will continue to deliver mail to me. I'll get that load photographed tomorrow and posted so everyone can see what a disgusting mess you've made.

Ok, maybe I got taken up in the moment and got a little carried away with the POS-eze. Judge for yourself tomorrow.

[orvet]

Ed,
Your kid's reactions is priceless! I love it! That is so much like what my youngest son would've done. He would have been right in the middle of the action!

David,
I'm glad there were a couple things in there you can use. Kershaws are always good, they're kind of the workingman's knife; excellent quality and low price. I went through your old posts and saw that you mentioned Camillus a few times so I thought you might enjoy the Camco. And everybody needs an eatin' tool!
I hope you enjoy them.

Received my package from Old Cutler on Friday.
The three items on the right are handmade by OC.
A knife pick, ink pen and a mini birdhouse. All very cool.
A lot of fun!!
One knife missing in the picture is a small Buck trapper, a buddy of mine was helping me move furniture and he liked it.

[jerryd6818]

Picture is finally taken. The pile is not that bad. I've had worse. In fact, I've sent worse.
The big single blade on the left, is that a dog groomer?
That little Waltham split spring whittler cleaned up pretty well. Bone handles and good snap on all blades.
The bare head pearl handle has a sheet of handle missing on the pile side. One from the mark side was floating but some Gorilla Glue re-attached it.
The Barlow has no snap on the main blade. Something for next years POS Roundtable??
The straight razors could be sharpened and used by someone who knows what he's doing. Maybe I'll send them to Owd Wullie.
