All About Pocket Knives

Thanks for the update Tom. Please don’t worry about these knives until after Christmas. Their arrival will be a great way to start the New Year!

Unless you're sitting in an electric chair.

Thanks for the update Tom. Sounds like my personality is very similar to yours, and so I understand your mindset of wanting to clear these off the to-do list as quickly as possible. We're all good here, and patient. Take your time, and know we're all happy campers. Whenever they show up, we'll be happy.

I have each and every one of theses knives since their inception, including the different knives for any given year. Delays happen. It sucks, but they do. Please don't feel any remorse over this Tom as it is out of your hands. Thank you for your time in bringing these Great club knives to us. I personally will continue to buy one each year until I die. Hopefully I will be buying them in 2050, but I'm not gonna be holding my breath on that one!

Your time and effort is much appreciated. That’s quite a project.

Oh look....my name is on one of them.

Ken - which one was yours again? Knives have been inspected and only 1 didn’t meet our high standards which is a very high degree of quality, thank you GEC! They are all wrapped back up in their wax paper and retubed with their COA’s. The packing and shipping has started and hopefully will end tomorrow with a trip to the Post Office. Thanks again for your kind patience and supportive comments; it’s a big undertaking but it provides me with a great feeling to give back to the community that has given so much to me over the past 15 years. Peace

Thanks Tom for all your sacrificial hard work on getting these out. We ALL appreciate the time and effort you've put into this. Blessings to you.

Nice variety of color from dark to light!

thanks Carl - I agree!

Very cool!!!

Bestgear, thanks a ton for all the packing and organizing, the updates and service, the standing in line at the P.O. Bryan too and all those involved. Great of you to do it for us and tell GECs Joan and Bill thanks if you talk to them. All of you involved are so cool. Really can't thank you all enough.

I don't consider myself OCD but that pic with the one tube facing backwards, 4th down on the right really distracts me! And the one marked LJ.....

Thank you for the updates!!!

Good Afternoon everyone from the AAPK packing and shipping department. I have started to print shipping labels and package knives for delivery to the Post Office; my goal is to have the majority of the knives on their way to your homes tomorrow but I may run out of time and some may not get mailed until Friday. You should receive a notification from PayPal with the package tracking information; if you haven't received one yet it means I haven't processed your package yet

To our Canadian friends, your packages will becoming UPS due to the postal strike in Canada.

Once the dust settles and all pre-orders are fulfilled, it looks as though I will have a few more knives available for sale. I haven't figured-out yet exactly how I'm going to make them available to the community yet but priority will be given to those that haven't placed a pre-order. So.......if you'd like a knife and want to be added to the waiting list on a first-come first-served manner until they are all allocated, please PM with:

• How many knives you would like (1 or 2)?

• Your PayPal Name (for me to send you an invoice)?

• Your Real Name

• Your Telephone Number

• Your Email Address

and I will email you with a confirmation and your position in line. Thank you again to everyone for your kind patience and support. I'm in the highly repeatable portion of the process and things should proceed as planned at this point.

Just gotta say, this will be my first aapk club knife and I am very excited and grateful for all the work that’s gone into this. It’s great being part of this group and having this opportunity!

Tom. You are the man. Just got tracking info .
Thank you for ALL you do for this community/ forum. It’s folks like you and Bryan and many others that make this the forum what it is.

Thanks for all the work it took to make these happen!

Look. Look .Thanks Tom.
