All About Pocket Knives

If you move to Carova, NC, Tom, you can live in the sand dunes with the wild horses. Make sure you own a Jeep.

COOL! I Love looking at wild horses!

Wild horses, trains, knives, 4-Wheelers, gardening ect. ect.
We have a lot to talk about some day.

Hey John, you like skiing. Check the "It's in the Mail" thread. You might need one of them too.

Looking back though..., almost everything in my whole life has been plan D, E or F. Hardly anything was ever plan A, B or C. Maryland could be a D, E or F state.

A) Hawaii
B) NC
C) ? FL GA
D) Texas
E) SC
F) MD

Something along those lines. Probably just wishful thinking though.

Sorry, drifted off topic a little.

Tom, isn't your wife German? What does she think of this dream world you're living in?

Yes she is. We are all 5 (3-kids) on the same sheet of music. We weren't always on the same sheet but we are now. Especially if it was Hawaii ! I'd like to move to NC. I really like that state. Some very friendly people there! Never hurts to dream a little Jerry. Gives me hope & keeps me going.

In my humble opinion, NC is the best place on your list. Hawaii's good for dreaming but it's too dad gummed expensive.

We are % on the same track Jerry! I'm sure there are many great states to live in but I'd like to be at least somewhere near the ocean if I ever got the chance to move back over. I'm not at all familiar with the states on the west coast. Or Hawaii or Texas as far as that goes. I just know a bit about the east coast. I attended church camp in NC as a teenager & I found the people there (in & outside of the camp) to be super friendly. That left a lasting impression on me. Even as a teenager I thought, Wow, great people here, if I ever leave FL I'll move to NC.

Wow Tom! What an awesome bomb, and a fantastic set!!

That, my friend, is a very handsome piece of cutlery. Congratulations on acquiring the final piece to the three knife set. It's a very generous gift from the phantom gifter. Very nice indeed.

Thanks guys! Appreciate it!

I even find the Box cool! Never had a box like it before.

A direct hit!. And a very thoughtful one as well. Will always be a special knife to you.

And to the bombardier, good job.

Tom, that is a lovely set of Trappers, in all the sizes. Keep on watching your mailbox for the boxy bomber from Michigan!

Nice set of Blue Bone/Red Shield Case Trappers, Tom.

Now, your "Momma Bear" Mini Trapper (07) and your "Baby Bear" Tiny Trapper (154) finally have Big "Poppa Bear" (54) Trapper to complete the family. So, I guess that must mean you are "Goldilocks" (and the three bear trappers! ). Somewhere there's an OCD Monkey smiling down upon you.

@ Floyd, Dan & Q : Thanks for the kind words. I do appreciate it!

Q, somehow I have this strange feeling that you & the OCD Monkey know something about this Bomb.

Thanks Buddy! Your way too cool!

Dear Mr. Anonymous,

I am truely humbled by your most gracious act of giving! I'm lost for words!

Such Special gifts tend to get me all choked up! Whoever sent this was paying attention to the posts here on the AAPK & knew that this knife would complete a set of three matching Trappers in different sizes for me. Awesome! Thank you Sir!

My new set of three matching Trappers will always be a very Special set in my collection! The tiny Trapper in the set was my first ever Case knife & a gift from my wife. This Trapper was a gift from an anonymous giver. And the small Trapper that I bought off the Bay is the missing link between two Awesome gifts!

Thank you very much Mr. Anonymous! I truely appreciate it! I really do!

Thanks for looking friends! I will post more pictures in different threads later on today.

. Awesome Tom, Congratulations to you, and Good Vibes to the Bomber!! Beautiful knife that will look right at home with your other trappers!! Proud for you man!!

All I can say is wow... A lot of people getting bombed with some awesome knives! The generosity of the members on this forum never cease to amaze me! I was bombed today by Reverand today! Thanks Buddy! Reverand sent me a most unusual 72 pattern. Has a McGrew shield and a Western tang stamp!

Sweet bomb and great to hear your experience. Good on the anonymous bomber for sure, and lucky you. What a great unexpected treat and altruistic to the core. Wow that's a great story and completion of the missing link. Congrats and whoever the bomber was, hope you know you're appreciated and all the goodwill and kindness will circle around and come back to you. Great to hear about stuff like this.
