All About Pocket Knives

Nice boom there, Q. Excellent target and preternaturally accurate aim. Get that bombardier a medal!

Very Nice Philip!! That Q is a special dude!! Congrats all around!!!
John

D) All of the above

Well done, Q!
That's a beaut, Phil! Enjoy!!

Excellent!! Just blinking excellent.

A secondary explosion!! A couple of weeks ago Old Cutler bombed me with the most beautiful little Duck decoy, you know how special they are. When the box came I opened it, found the decoy, put the box in with my other shipping boxes and went nuts looking at the little mallard. Well I was emptying some of the boxes and putting the shipping material all in one box and much to my surprise OC had included a great little bird house he had made. Hence the secondary explosion. Wow!!! It is great, just look at the picture. Old Cutler is a talented man. Thanks again.

A little Quick Release oil and it’s in my pocket right now. Gonna give it a little time on the whetstone - it’ll make a perfect Sunday carry!

Thanks Jerry!

Sweet, sweet, sweet! Mumbleypeg the gitter and Jerry the giver, and every one happy! Great gift and receiver and giver.

Me too! And it’s a Richards! RA/Jerry rocks!

Ann there was a governor of Texas back a few years ago named Ann Richards. With your affinity for Richards brand we may have to start calling you by that name. Congrats and a salute to the bomber!

Blown out of the water!!! I ordered a little Imperial easy opener jack from Phil and Vicki (All Archway Cutlery) of the AAPK store and when it arrived it seemed a little heavier than it should. Upon opening I found these two wonderful knives along with the one I ordered. A beautiful old bone Ulster with amazing snap and this little Winchester with also beautiful bones and great snap. Wow what two great knives. Thanks to the both of you for such a generous gift. (or should that be gifts) I prize them.

Wow! Now that’s a bomb.

Gee thanks. I’ve spent years trying to forget her!

Wow! That's da bomb!

Boy oh boy, Floyd did you ever get bombed! Those folks did a number on you.

Thanks Willey, Wade and Philip. Philco and his sweet wife are pretty wonderful folks.
Mumbleypeg, sorry to bring up bad memories.

I got the most wonderful and unexpected bomb today! He’s free to own up, but I won’t say who until I ask. Let’s say Texans have everything big, especially their hearts!
I opened them smallest to largest. Oh wow.
The German pen was first. That little beauty is going straight into my gentleman’s knives where it will fit very well. Likewise the gorgeous little Imperial. I recently got a very similar one in yellow. A lovely pair!
A Richards Mountie, and one I didn’t have! Yay!
Thé Challenger is a great piece of history. I must get some proper polish fit it and the guard on my Bangkung.
Zorro! Way cool! The Spanish Robin Hood. My plastic ‘50s Zorro uke nearly leapt off the wall when I unwrapped it.
I have loved the look of toothpicks since I first saw one, but my little black widow has been the only example I owned. I also really like wood and brass. Double whammy!
As I was opening the packages, I was thinking, ’’ couldn’t possibly be a bone handled three blade in there. That would be too much.’’
Unbelievable. And it’s a Camillus with just enough pocket smooth to make it totally delicious! I actually said something unladylike! Several somethings!
Awesome, awesome, awesome!

A Camillus 72. You lucky girl. No accumulation is complete without one. You now own one of the finest knives in the world.

Edit: P.S. that little Imperial jack is another fine acquisition.

Oh boy, don’t I know it! I’ve been telling everyone it’s the ‘57 Chev of knives!

Excellent! I like that description a lot. If I had room, I would add it to my sig box.

If only T.J. was still with us.

Funny thing - when my IXL saw what was coming in, it just slithered out of my jeans without being asked and quietly took up residence in my jacket.

In my other world, the Stratocaster of knives!

A great little group knives there Ann. I think the 72 has adopted you. Congrats.

WOWZUH!!! That's a massive bomb!!! Congrats!

Much respect to the sender!!

Would you say the IXL is more Les Paul...

Willy, that’s perfect, and exactly what I was thinking! You beat me to it!

This unusual bomb appeared anonymously the other day. Not exactly sure what they would be used for, but it's a cool little set of glass apothecary vials and a small light bulb.

Mahalo to the anonymous sender...whoever & wherever you are.
