I May Grow Older, But I refuse to Grow Up!!
I'll sharpen it for you, but I don't give out band-aids!!
Good or otherwise, all I've done is gently push another poor innocent soul down the spiraling path of Wharncliffe addiction...like a lamb to the slaughter (sorry, Tom, you are the "lamb" in this scenario)
We are all just prisoners here of our own device.
In the master's chamber they gather for the feast.
They stab it with their steely knives but they just can't kill the beast.

Oh my word, those are some of the most gorgeous knives I've seen in a while.
I really like the Wharncliffe blade.

You & me both, buddy...um...er...I mean, Senior Chief, Sir!
Thanks for the compliments, guys. I agree, they are beautiful knives; I feel incredibly fortunate to own them.
