All About Pocket Knives

Good lookin' family, Greg and y'all know how to do it up right. A great restaurant and an even greater Father's Day gift.

A very nice looking family, Greg.

Glad you enjoyed a celebration with your family. Looking forward to seeing a picture with the display case full of knives.

Thanks guys. A great time was had by all.
When your younguns get grown and have their own responsibilities you just never get to see enough of them.

Here we go boys, this is what I looked like today, holdin' a new grandson, 65 days old, who is holdin' a 6275 Case that's 42 years old! Break 'em in right!

Great picture Phil. ____Dave

Great picture ........... beautiful child.

Treefarmer, I can't tell which one looks happier, the baby or the grand pappy.
Great picture. Congrats on the grandson!

Wow! Look at the head of hair on that lad. Congratulations Philip. Grandchildren are the best.

"Grandchildren are the best"
I believe this to be true but have never got to test it out. I have 3 adult children, ages 39, 37 and 34, and NO GRANDCHILDREN ! I am disappointed and as 2 are female, the clock runs out soon.

I have two granddaughters, one 21 the other 23 and am hoping they will bless me with great-grandchildren before I go TU.

Edit: I'm such a sexist pig. I don't know why I left out the grandsons, 16 & 18. They could also bless me with great-grandchildren and I hope they do (in a conventional way).

I have 7 grandchildren, 23, 16, 15, 13, 9, 6, & 4. 5 boys and 2 girls. All special in their own way. Can't wait for greatgrandkids, but will have to wait awhile. ftd

Thanks for the nice compliments! I hope we are around long enough to enjoy this little feller as he begins to grow, the other grandsons are 11 and 12 and both are into knives, fishing and shooting. I just wish they didn't live so far away .
Jerry, I told several folk he was wearin' a wig when they commented on his thick hair .
fergusontd, we had an old preacher many years ago that commented on grandchildren, "He loved to see 'em come and he loved to see 'em go!" After a week with the 2 older ones I totally understand that saying! I believe we should have grandchildren 1st.

I'm impressed that you rattled off the ages, or did you have to check with your wife to get it all correct. I haven't a clue how old my 5 kids are, much less the 16 grandkids or 4 great-grandkids. I can figure it out given a little time using things like "what car was I driving when a particular kid was born?"___Dave

djknife, I'll bet you keep Hallmark in business, 25 kids, grandkids, greatgrandkids +1 for the wife. That is alot of birthdays to remember. ftd

Ferg, that's what they make calendars for.

Ya'll reminding me about my 85 year old Uncle Bill. He's got 4 kids (my cousins) and 12 grandchildren. At a family gathering one day someone asked him "Bill, how many great-grandkids have you got now?"

He answered "'Fourteen, and one on the way"

To which was immediately responded "Who's pregnant?"

"Heck I don't know, but one of them's bound to be!"

I have 19 grandkids.
I used to say, "I have 19 grandchildren. A couple are pretty good but none of them are great."
I can't say that anymore because our great-grandson just celebrated his 2nd birthday.
Alyson and I were up in Washington last weekend to visit him. He pitched to me for about a half an hour.
The kid has one heck of an arm, especially for just being 2 years old! I think we have a new King Felix in the making!

And Ferguson, I do not remember their ages. I feel great when I remember their names!

Hey Lyle, here's one of me about 67 years ago.
Two little knifers!

Orvet, having only 7 grandkids its easy to remember names and ages, but when you have 19+ and great grandkids I can see where it would be hard to remember everyone. ftd
