Hello
My name is Martin but I sometimes go by Tom Stranger on the internet, and of course in coffee shops I am usually called Mark. I live on a homestead in rural Indiana with my wife and four daughters. I am not a collector of knives per se, but I like knives and am especially fascinated by old slip joints. I actually found this site while researching an Imperial Cattleman's Stockman I picked up. Thanks for having me, and I'm looking forward to learning more.

Re: New Hoosier Checking In
Welcome to AAPK. Glad to have you aboard. I was born and partially raised in the far southwestern corner of the state but haven't lived there for 55 years. Still have relatives there and am proud of my Indiana heritage.

We get some monsters. My family eats a lot of venison, but I haven't gotten too many trophies. Lots of nice big does though.treefarmer wrote:
