THANKS for having me .

Post by useem »

Hello everyone, I am a new member and am really excited about learning as much as I can from everyone. I am new to computers, new to the internet but have been around knives for many years. Taught by my father early on to respect a knife for the tool that it is and was given my first one when I was seven years old. AS I grew older I realized they are not only tools, but also , can be down right works of art. I had about 100 knives in my collection, then got married, started a family(3 kids) and replaced the collection with diapers and milk.Now 15 years latter, I am back in the game! Been at it for about a year (have 20+ knives now) and now that I found you all, well that makes it that much more fun.
THANK YOU for letting me come aboard. USSEM (use them). :D

useem; ("I am new to computers, new to the Internet")

::welcome:: Old man that is willing to learn. I have a felling you father was a man many respected. Back then helping a son learn how to respect a weapon. I never heard a pocket called a weapon until I started driving a school bus in 2000. Back in the good old days a boy felt good being a Boy Scout and getting a neat Scout knife.(of coruse we lost them some where) Now you are looked at as a military weapons lover if you just join the Boys Scouts.
I can and will try to help you learn new things too. ::nod:: ::nod:: Us old farts can still pass good this on to others.
