2012 POS Roundtable Anyone ? ? ? ? ?

[MikeEngland]

Im a reletively new member at AAPK, so this is only my second POS exchange, and While I thought that terrible TripppleFFF's offering from the last round was about as BIG and S'y as it could get, member IMband has just blown my mind with an obnoxiously large pile of POS gold!!
Seriously!, When I opened the package I thought I was gonna find it full of sand or a brick or somthing!
Well done Sir! Well done.

[jerryd6818]

At least they all stick, Mike.

[jerryd6818]

Jody744 sent a picture of the Pile O' S--- he received from woodrat99. I promised to post it for him so here it is.

From woodrat99 to Jody744

[philco]

Jody I see at least a couple that would be worth stickin your hand in the bowl to retireve them.

Nice haul.



BTW Jerry I don't want this thread to fade away without me thanking you for all your efforts getting this Roundtable up and running. You've done a great job! Thanks a bunch!

[jerryd6818]

Ain't no thing, Phil. I'm just glad to be a part of this forum. (Jeez, now I sound like one of those sports player interviews. "Uh Bob, I'm just glad to be here with the Potsawana Road Kill Frogs. All I wanna do is make a difference and take one for the team.")

Enough with the jokes. It really is a pleasure to be counted amongst such a fine group of people.

Wait, I'm confused? Are you still joking???


Oh, and nice snag on the pos's

[jerryd6818]

There's always a few exceptions, Chris.

[AREMINGTONSEDGE]

Unless my eyes deceive me...I think woodrat shook off a piece from his boot,(from the POS I bomb him with) and it landed in Jody's POS? If thats not the case, I think woodrat and I both have poor eyesight and at times can be suckered by the same guy!! ::super_happy::Way to go with some real POS slinging!!

[Miller Bro's]

Well, they say floats but I didn`t know it took this long to make it across the pond

Woke up this morning and there it was sitting on the shore in a brown bag

These four "things" were inside, don`t know what I will do with them, they ain`t good for much Hey, wait a minute, the price of steel is up isn`t it?

Thanks Robert, I think

[Iron Hoarder]

Glad you like them Dimitri.

[TripleF]

Ain't no thing but a dingaling. It was my pleasure.

[Toejammer]

Not alot of posts this time though. I still don't know if Dirtyfonzie even got what I sent.

But again, thanks Jerry for orchestrating this !

My pos recipient is a no show as well? Then again I probably wouldn't have wasted the time to show them either

I had fun and will do it again in the future.
TYVM Jerry for putting it together

[Iron Hoarder]

I think next time we should do it by weight. I can ship a Kilogram (2.2lb) for the same price as one of those flat rate US international postal boxes. So who's up for it? A whole big box of S***!

[Dave O]

I wonder if my stinks made it?? Randy Few was the intended lucky person!

[johnny twoshoes]

I'm a little late in making it to the POS party, but I'm hear.
My good buddy mike England was the lucky dog who drew my name, so I knew I would be getting some great ones.

He didn't disappoint.


Okay, so lets get the descriptions started.

Well start with least to greatest.

The little key chain knife is a special little piece, it was hand made by a little old man in china. He hand fitted the wood scales to the ancient, secret, stainless steel liners with some kind of epoxy. I believe the wood was harvested from some old chop sticks, I'll do some more research to be sure.

Second up is the little singled bladed knife.
It was used by Bruce Lee when he was off set. Who knew he was such a fan of cutlery?
The scales are made of ancient 2X4 that was washed up on shore after a storm.

And how about that butterfly knife?
From what I understand it was used by an actual butterfly, he defeated many foes with this wobbly old blade before his time was up.
The knife was passed onto Mike, who never spoke of the true origin until he sent it my way. I can feel the butterfly's wrath when I flick it open.

Lets go to the Red knife.
It may appear to be some kind of cheap plastic, but some further inspection shows that it is truly the coagulated blood of an ivory unicorn, obviously it has been stabilized through top secret processes.

Finally, the picture knife.
The picture was taken by, I believe, famed wildlife photographer, Ansel Adams.
The silversmithing was done by a blind man who worked out of a cave, his name was not mentioned in the paperwork, just his story.

My favorite by far and the most important is the Mellon Tester.
The Ivory scales are from a huge bull elephant that Peter capstick took on one of his many adventures.

To say my collection has been boosted is an understatement, these knives are true beauties that stand as perfect examples of cutlery.
I can't wait to share them with the next unfortunate member who I draw in the next POS.

[MikeEngland]

A more eloquent description has ne'r been penned. How perfectly your words captured the history of these majestic blades and the mystery of their origins. I am truly pleased that these treasures have been passed on to one who can appreciate their real value.

[jerryd6818]

Caleb -- At the risk of delving too deeply into the mysterious origins of this fine collection, What's the tang stamp on the melon knife?

[johnny twoshoes]

Hey Jerry, this beauty reads,

Stainless
Colonial
prov. U.S.A.

[jerryd6818]

Thank you.

[Aimus Moses]

Uh, you fellers that haven't heard from your intended victoms...er... I mean AAPK members, may want to put your stash of cash and your passport in your pocket and keep them there just in case you want to leave the country in sort of a hurry. Manslaughter charges could be issued for those of you that haven't heard from the members you sent your POS to.

[AREMINGTONSEDGE]

I.H., havin' seen pics of a box or two of your "junk" knives you can send me a POS box any old time!!
