Retired in Texas

Post by Jtx »

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.

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.

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!
