Yup! That's a beauty!

Good on you fellers

Much respect Scott. Very much.

Thanks fellas....thanks! It wasn't all me though......

And I received this little package yesterday from Ray (Paladin). Thank you very much Ray!
I'll give one to my brother in-law and we'll enjoy!!

LA was bombed twice today!
Our son-in-law sent Miss Joy some unexpected spatulas as replacement for the ones he had broken during Thanksgiving.
Joy showed me a strange looking black package that was in the mail box along with her spatulas.
We recognized the name of the sender, so carefully, with my RR trapper's spay blade, I slit the package open. It contained a business card with the following written on the back , "Semper Fi, Phil! Happy belated Marine Corps Birthday! Dale". On the face of the business card was our friend Dale's ORVET CUSTOMS information. The card was attached to a knife box that contained a knife that is slightly smaller than my Camillus pilot survival knife but similar. A kind gesture, much appreciated. Even greater than this is a customized Kershaw he sent me when I had my left knee replaced.
There are some wonderful people here on the AAPK forum and Bro. Dale Vincent is one of the front runners in my opinion!
Semper Fi, my friend!

Nice work on the customized Kershaw Wild Turkey, Dale. What exactly is that colorful stag-like handle material?

I am glad you like it Q. The bone was Culpepper's Amber CSB.

I had another Wild Turkey I customized that I really liked, it was done in Culpepper's Amber impala jigged bone. I can't remember who I gave that to but I have to make another one for me because it was my absolute favorite, the jigging gave be a good grip and the bone was gorgeous!
Here are some pictures I took before I had finished it totally, I know I put the etch on a yet at this point, but I think everything else was pretty much finished.
I hope you enjoy the pictures.

Very Nice there Dale.. I am liking the colors!!! John

Roger, (Peanut 740) it was just an Avatar. I never expect anything in return for the little things I do and certainly not something like this. I can't wrap my head around the generosity you've shown here over an Avatar but if you think I'm going to send it back, you're just crazy in the head. What a beautiful knife. I'm afraid I don't know how to adequately thank you for this fine piece of cutlery.

Thursday is lunch with my buddies Bob & John so they were here when I opened it. We were all just floored. Thank you very much until you're better paid.

Very nice BOMB. Congrats to the bomber and the bombee.

Wow, Jerry, it's even in your color! I guess that one can be called an "orange moose"? Good job, Roger!

Kinda made me look bad there Roger. I sent the picture of my avatar to Jerry and he fixed me right up I didn't send Jerry a knife but I will tell you thanks for all you do for us computer illiterate people on here. Good job Roger.

You and me both Keith. Jerry does much for all of us!

Well done Roger.

Jerry is a jewel and a real asset to AAPK, but please don't tell him I said so cause it might go to his head.

Wow, what a dandy knife bomb!

Aww shucks. You guys are just sayin' that stuff. Ain't none of that true.

Seems to happen to you frequently sir.....must be an indication of something!
