Received my AAPK Club Knife today. ::ds:: I would post a pic, but I think everyone pretty much knows what they all look like. ::nod::

Very pleased with this years knife. Absolutely awesome.

Thanks Tom for ALL your dedicated work and organization on this. The packing is superb and very well done. I don't think everyone quite knows exactly what you went through during the past six months to coordinate this knife with GEC, dealing with changes and hold ups, finally receiving them, packaging all 221 knives up, printing out the shipping labels, etc., etc. I DO NOT take your part in all this lightly, nor do I take you for granted. Bravo Zulu to you for your personal endeavors, loyalty and thoughtfulness toward each and every member here on AAPK. ::handshake::

You deserve a much needed rest. Take some time off for YOU, pat yourself on the back and maintain that smile and attitude of MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

Also...a HUGE Thank You to Bryan for all you do for the AAPK family. Without you, there would be no AAPK. ::handshake::

My Club Knives showed up today, and they are Beautiful! ::tu:: I think these may be my favorite AAPK knives yet... Perfect size, Awesome Eureka Jack blade and handle design, and Phenomenal ACSB scales with a nice variety of color in the three that I received. One will go in the pocket, one in the safe, and the third to a good knife trading friend. ::nod:: Now I just have to figure out which one goes where. ::hmm::
Also pictured is a Vincenzo Balistreri Custom Bullet Head Easy Open with Buffalo Horn Covers that I bought from Tom's store for just a little more added anticipation while waiting on their arrival.
I love them all, and a big Thank You to Tom for all his hard work on this adventure.

Thank you everyone for the accolades. I am humbled by your comments and pray the Lord gives me the strength to coordinate next year’s club knife. If the moon and stars align, the 2026 knife will also be stunning!

I received mine today and must say this is what I would call dark carved stag bone, not amber. Was hoping for more color, more fire with reds and yellow. The pics make the handles brighter than they actually are. Other than that, the knife is flawless. No gaps, great snap both ways on both blades, and half stops.

Got mine in the mail yesterday. All along I didn't think I was going to like it but I do.
It's really a beautiful knife.
