Retired in Texas
Retired in Texas
Hello. I am a new member here and looking forward to participating and learning. I like the older pocket knives (1970's and older) made in the USA... but all dates and brands interest me. Thanks to the administrators who work hard to make this a friendly site.

Re: Retired in Texas
Welcome to the club Jtx. AAPK is a great place to learn many, many things no matter how much you already know. Plus we have a lot of fun here as well, but you gotta watch out for that first fella there. We've had to put him on restriction.

Re: Retired in Texas
You folks really know how to make me feel welcome. Thank you for the greetings. I want to especially thank Dale (orvet) for assisting me with a problem I had in the registration process. Without his willingness to help me, I would not be here... thanks Dale.

Welcome to AAPK. That Wards is a good looking knife!
If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.
