All About Pocket Knives

Congrats Chief. Stuff like that is just special.
You done good Scott.

Perfect knife for a perfect target Scott.

Great bombing! A cool and appropriate knife. I’m a sucker for those little flashlights. I don’t know about yours, but mine has an actual on/off, one of the few flat keychains that does. Bright, too.

Being well aware of my Navy roots, my good friend Scott in Florida bombed me with this little jewel and he added a thumb flashlight.
Thank you very much Scott, much appreciated and a complete surprise.

My pleasure sir!! You are welcome!!

At todays meeting of the Stingy Creek Knife Collectors Club here at my house, two of our esteemed members finally got to open what has become a "time bomb". A mysterious box from Canada arrived in my mailbox a few weeks ago addressed to my granddaughters, Abbi and Autumn. Unfortunately it arrived just before I was set to fly off across the country for a vacation. I've been back home a week now but today was the first chance I've had to spend any time with these two young ladies and consequently the first chance they've had to open the mysterious package from the north. Inside they found two very cool knives each, a pair of cute stuffed bears and some very interesting cards along with a nice note. All this was a bomb from Zoogirl here on AAPK and was greeted with much excitement from the recipients.
Ann thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful gifts to my gals. They were absolutely thrilled, and knowing their gifts came from another country seemed to just add to their excitement. As you can see from the photos the knives have already become a permanent part of their collections.

Here's some photos:

Cuties for sure! Ann did a great job. Best pictures on the forum today.

Great job Ann!

Ann, ya done good!!!

Ditto...ditto and ditto!

Well done Ann. Very thoughtful of you.

The Canadian bomb was perfect...and the big smiles on the young ladies faces, priceless.

That was very good Ann and those little ones will have a great memory.

Happy for those sweet girls Phil. They look thrilled.
Ann I had been watching for the crater and you left a great one. Great targets! Generous on your part.

Way to go Ann. You're the gal of the hour. As Scott is wont to say, much respect.

You done good Zoo!

Well, thank you all very much!
I’m just glad the girls liked their ‘bomb’.
Since I feel like the only girl in the Fort, with the exception of MarieCrow’s flybys, it seemed appropriate to encourage the young ladies.
I actually found out about them and their collections way back in the early spring. Phil mentioned them over on the Diner.
I thought a couple of little Richards Mounties might make a good start. It’s my brand and of course the Mountie is such an iconic symbol up here. Then I acquired a Canada multi knife and a Vancouver. In those went. I got the two teddies around Canada day when the stores were souvenir crazy. Last was the postcards - a polar bear cub and twin black bear cubs, to match the stuffies, and a pair of Vancouver cards.
Off went the Great Northern Missile!
Of course, it’s the incredible kindness I’ve been shown here that got me started. Hopefully, one day the girls will be happily filling little boxes of their own and sending them all over the country and the world. It’s a good feeling!

I got bombed..................

Dang dude. That wasn't just a bomb, that was a bunker buster. Congratulations.

Richards! You got Richards?! Argh! Guess what colour I just turned!
Nice bomb!

Yeah. That richard is a nice one! the blades are like new.

Actually its awesome! I got bombed by David Roberts! A commemorative coin from the aircraft carrier Navy Ship he served on! And....
An Ulu knife too! LOVE IT!! Straight from Alaska too!

Oh my, I have such a hard
time visualizing this fine gentleman paying the cashier thinking, Scott's gonna get one of these.

I am indeed humbled my friend and very, very happy and thankful!!!

Scott, happy for you. And some real long range bombing!!!. David, direct hit. Excellent ordinance and target.

Nifty neato Scott. Wait until you show the boys that. Just keep your fingers out of the way.

Scott, you can use your "bomb" to chop up swamp cabbage, give the boys a taste of real "Heart-O-Palm" salad or boil them up a big pot of swamp cabbage.
David you hit a worthy target.
