All About Pocket Knives

Fortunately, I have a great neighbor who doesn't mind taking care of my mail when I'm not around. I think these 3 beauties must have arrived at my local post office over the weekend. The really tough part now is going to be picking one EDC.

Tom, thanks for all the effort and energy that you put into this project. You did a great job!

I also want to thank Tom for all the work he put into this project! Well done! Also the packing job on my knife was without question an “indoor record”!

Received mine yesterday.
One for me and one for a fellow AAPK member.
They turned out awesome!
Thanks Tom for all you do.

Just curious.
You will be carrying one of these.
I haven't made up my mind yet, but it's highly possible I will carry and use mine.

I hope you do! It’s “Hand crafted for hard use”.

Not “Hand crafted to sit in a tube”

These are all looking great! Looking forward to getting mine.

My knives are scheduled to arrive 11/24, but it will be interesting to see who's knives arrive first, danno's in Canada or mine in Hawaii

Q - Your package left San Francisco today at 2:17 am - I’m sure USPS will significantly improve on that 11/24 estimate

I really hope you're right, Tom It all depends on whether it got put on a plane or a boat. If it comes by air I will likely have it by the weekend. However, if it got put in a cargo container on a ship, I would expect it to take about 2-3 weeks before it shows up in my mailbox.

I got mine yesterday and couldn't be any happier after seeing it in person. Thank You Tom for all your efforts !

Mine was supposed to be here yesterday. I knew it would not come today. I can’t say I don’t care, that would be a blatant lie. As long as it doesn’t get lost and end up in Chi-rack. All will be good a couple of pictures and in my pocket it goes and into the rotation. Can’t wait.
Thank you so much Tom.

Got mine today.

I have been made aware of a couple of knives that are available for sale at the original purchase price to a subscriber that missed out on the pre-sale. If you already made a purchase of this years knife, please yield to a subscriber that didn’t PM me for details - thank-you!

Got my knife today and I couldn't be more pleased! Beautiful knife. Great fit and finish! Thank you Tom for all your hard work on this!

Good Morning - I know of a few packages that have not arrived yet (Treefarmer, QTCut5, Danno50) for various reasons. Please PM me if your package hasn't arrived yet so I can add it to the AWOL list. This will save me from looking up all of the tracking numbers, most of which have already been successfully delivered. Thank you!

Yes sir, still waiting.

Nice knife, thanks!

Mine arrived Saturday but just yesterday had time to open it and coon finger the knives (it’s haying time here again). Wow! My first ACSB knives, and both beauties. One of them is a Christmas present for our oldest son who is an overseas missionary (and a pocket knife collector. He will be pleased).

My thanks to Tom and Bryan! I’d post pictures but they look just like the others already posted.

Lovely covers on yours, very much like some of the bone on Charlies first Lambsfoot drop in 2019. Have a good weekend.

Welcome to the ACSB club, newbie! (bet you don't get called that very often anymore!! )

Saying all ACSB looks alike is like saying all Stag looks alike....it doesn't, at least not to avid ACSB aficionados. I have about 50 or so ACSB knives and no two are the same.
