Introduction

Post by hk1123 »

Hi yall - NEPA guy checking in - carried the same cheap chinese buck knock off for 20, the lock back broke ---- and now I have picked up a handful of replacements in the past two weeks. So, needless to say, perhaps I have a new hobby. Love the look of classic old-timey knives and found this place.

Welcome aboard! Glad to have you. Just know that this is the most awful bunch of enablers around here you've ever seen. Lol. Hang around and that knife pile will really start to take off!

NorthEast PA - thanks yall for the welcome.

As an aside - after my Meals On Wheels stint tomorrow, hitting the local flea market to spend a bit of jangle, pretty sure I saw a Beer Scout last time I was there but didnt know what I was looking for.
