The Beach Boys covered it, "Little GTO".

A while ago I purchased some deer antler pieces from one of out esteemed members. He threw in a piece of rams horn (which I gave to glennbad for handle material) and a piece of ivory. It was unusual shaped and not suited for knife handles. I then recently forwarded it on to Ivoryman as he does wonderful things with ivory. Yesterday I received back from Iman this wonderful gift. A face necklace from the ivory and a bead. Wow, I wasn't expecting anything and received these two treasures. Thanks Brian for your generosity. ::handshake::

Thanks for the plug doglegg, and the ivory to play with. Glad you like the stuff I carved. That made my day. And so did all the nice comments folks, Glennbad, Paladin, Treefarmer, Woodwalker, TPK, Ripster, jmh, thanks for the comments.
Jerry, thanks for the comedy. That one gave me a good laugh.
Thanks again all for the compliments, and doglegg, that's the best thanks you could give. Always welcome and send me your ivory any time. That goes for all of ya. Thanks again. :mrgreen: ::super_happy:: ::nod::

I was bombed today!
Dogleg sent me these parts for an O Barrett tool knife. I had asked him about some leftover parts a few months back, as I have one that is missing the rear bolsters.
He sent me not only the bolsters, but several good parts that will make mine a much better and more complete knife. I can't wait to put these two together!
This has made me happier than receiving a new knife.
Thank you, sir!
