[bestgear]

My apologies to everyone that I am just know getting my box of "treasures" posted.

no need for apologies Dale, we’re just glad your on the mend and posting again. Brent sure knows how this game is played

I believe that everyone who participated in this round of the POS exchange has posted here. Thank you again for participating and keeping this fun tradition alive. Each of the participants now has a “starter set” for the next round where Kolvir will be back at the helm running the show. I also thank you for going easy on me while filling in for Kolvir; you made my coordination job easier and painless.

THAT’s A WRAP!

Dale, sorry for your physical problems. I guess with the aging process in full bloom that several of us are looking like our knives. God bless with your upcoming surgery. And a worthy POS box but with several pocket worthy ones.

I've given my share, and then some, of some real stinkers over the years. So maybe giving a few decent ones in the pile is my way of making up for that.

Nobody should feel guilty or ashamed for abiding to the "guidelines" of the POS and unloading their refuse...that is after all the spirit of the POS exchange.

I've alway thought that was the fun part, getting and giving Poo.
I really enjoy seeing poo that I passed on, being passed on repeatedly. I only recognized one this year.

I suspect they won’t get much worse in a year, we’ll be doing it again before long

I've got another one in the chamber if you want to exchange

Just got mine from bladebuddy. Some real good stuff. Bone handled Barlow, Sabre lockblade, Empire ebony jack, a Kingston jack to be rehandled, a Stan Packy lockblade, an unusual tie clasp knife (never seen one), and a real nice Old Cutler customized 4 blade stock knife. Wow, that is a nice one. Great stuff bladebuddy, thanks.

I’m glad you like your poo pile. Post some pictures of the rehandle jobs you do please. Steve B.

I ended up rehandling that Kingston jack with Bocote. The old scales were black composition that was badly shrunken and actually kind of slimy underneath. Bocote is a fairly hard wood with contrasting light and dark brown streaks.

Great job OC. The wood looks great and the work even better.

[bladebuddy]

Olde Cutler, that Kingston looks much better. Thanks for posting the picture.

[Reverand]

Looks really good, OC!

[OLDE CUTLER]

Thanks guys. That Kingston is back in the EDC rotation.
