All About Pocket Knives

You're welcome Phil as are all the rest. Anyone who feels left out, send a PM to me and I'll see that you get a packet.

I noticed today at Wal-Mart that they carry the single pot packets of Hilander Grogg in another brand. I can't tell you of course if that applies to your Wal-Mart.

I got hit! Not by an active member, but a friend sent me an early Christmas bomb. It's right up my ally and one I needed for a special set I'm putting together.

Here's a Western Boulder 742 with awesome bone scales.

That's a nice bomb to be hit with Col.

Thanks Phil. I was shocked and amazed.

I'm rather partial to the Westerns and the bone handles are just a major plus. Congrats Cuz.

Thanks Cuz. It was a good friend who knows about my little 74x collection. He told me the other day that he'd gone to Cabella's and found some new shiny chicom trinket that I just had to have and was sending it to me. I opened the box and this is what it was!

Wade, that is a nice Western Stockman - they sure made a fine pocketknife in their day. OH

Just got carpet bombed by a long range bomber based out of New Port Richey Florida - a whole bag of CSA related knives and hat pins. Thank you Scott!

Very good hit Scott! That's a dandy of a package OH.

It wasn't much, but I just felt like I had to send it to ya Bruce!!
Maybe it'll bring ya good luck duck hunting this weekend!

I intended to post this and would have sworn I had but "Oh look! There goes a chicken." Old age is not for sissies.

Our boy Scott (TripleF) picked up a Stainless DE Imperial the other day and when I inquired about it, he said "it's yours". Scott being Scott, I couldn't talk him into letting me give him anything for it. And of course, Scott being Scott, when it got here, it hadn't made the trip by it's self. Thanks Scott. For the knife and the other goodies. You're a generous man and I appreciate you more than you know.

Those pens have the soft rubber tip on them and are as handy as a pocket on a shirt for touch screens.
The Case blade opener is something I've occasionally looked at but never jumped on. Thanks to Scott, now I have one.
The Imperial DE isn't factory condition but it's darn close, plus it has solid bolsters.

Not sure what got into him but Larry (jlw257) sent an email to me on Wednesday, simply saying, "Ups left it at front door".

I went Whaaat? But I went to the front door anyway and sure enough there was a package there. At first I thought he was clairvoyant but then I opened it and this is what it was.

What ever got into ya Larry, whether it was the Christmas Spirit or several glasses of eggnog, I appreciate it. That is too cool for school and I like it very much.

Merry Christmas to you and yours. Wishing you the best the Holiday Season has to offer.

Why shucks Cuz. Santa Clause has your number this year. Very cool.

Tis indeed Junior. Tis indeed.

Very knice bomb indeed.....and a great target too!

........jerry, you need to build a bomb shelter!!!!........ .......................

I think you're right Tommy. Another one came today. I was bombed all the way from Hawaii but it didn't bring any warm weather with it, just warm fuzzy holiday feelings and that's plenty.

~Q~ (QTCut5) sent me this GEC 153115 Barlow. He said he can no longer keep up the maintenance on his collection and Hawaii isn't playing nice with the 1095 steel so he's thinning the herd. It has some rust spots on it but I am very grateful to get it and humbled by his generosity.

Thank you very much ~Q~. I like it a lot and can't stop fondling it.

..........good looking bone on that one,jerry!!!!!.............. ...................

It's a really nice knife, Tommy. Sheepfoot blade, half-stops, really nice bone and 1095 steel which is probably my favorite.

.......I'm beginning to think we might be related, cuz!!!!............... ...............

Sweet shrapnel right there my friend!!

Knice work Q!!!

Man! The hits just keep a comin'! You must have been extra good this year!

I don't know what to tell ya sonny boy. I've always been "extra good" ( ) but not to the extent that I feel worthy of all this attention.

I got BOMBED from Scott.. A nice hunk of fat wood, shorts, and a carpenter axe!! WOW!! Thanks Scott!!!! He and I did a trade awhile back and I got to try some fat wood!! Well.. After burning up what he sent, I was joking around with Scott that what would I have to trade to get a truck load?? And then the BOMB landed here!! Thanks!! John

You're welcome John!

Now don't burn that stufff so fast.......
