And I'm out of Pop-Tarts. 
Cool link Q.QTCut5 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 09, 2022 2:22 am Still trying NOT to buy any knives for awhile...but sometimes (if the price is low enough) the temptation is simply irresistible. Such was the case with this knife from France that I pulled out of the Bay for $45. I had a Laguiole once and thought this one looked kind of similar. After doing a little research on French knives I came across this blog that I found quite interesting, especially the old photos of French cutlers making knives (there's one showing a Beagle--or possibly a Bloodhound--sitting on a guy's butt as he's prone on a grinding bench that I know jmh58 John would love if he was still active on AAPK). I highly recommend checking it out. (More photos in European made knives forum.)

Actually saw two pictures with dogs. There is another one further down with a small white dog on a guys legs. Anyways, nice looking knife. 
That I can't tell you because I do not know. All I know is what everyone else already knows, i.e., on June 25th he started a thread mysteriously titled "Done..." and the only thing he posted was a single word: "Bye", and despite much concern and speculation as to why or what might have happened, he hasn't posted anything since. Very sad because he was a long-time, active member who was always very positive. I enjoyed our many exchanges and reading his posts and felt he was a friend. I miss him and I hope he's Ok, possibly just taking an extended break, and will eventually return to the forum.
but it's possible I'm just not following the same threads he's more active in. 
Dan in MI hasn't been around here much lately either.QTCut5 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 11, 2022 6:06 amThat I can't tell you because I do not know.

Haven't seen any posts from Smitty/Papa Bones for a while, either
Hope he & Smitty are fine. 
Dan's last post on Aug. 31st -- Form your own conclusions.
Thanks for your info ~Q~. It so happens I just read "Done" this morning and it gave me an idea of what's going on. It sure sounds like ruffled feathers to me and it was right around his birthday too.QTCut5 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 11, 2022 6:06 amThat I can't tell you because I do not know.

I hope he can deal with whatever is troubling him and get back here, he is solely missed. I'm so self absorbed I didn't even notice Smitty or Dan missing, and Smitty was a regular here at "Mail Call". Dan sounds like a power failure, but 11 days so far?
geocash has also come up missing. I know he had some health issues so I really hope he is ok. 
That's right Tom, I hadn't noticed geocash missing either. I did notice though that Garry(Quick Steel)hasn't been posting. We're droppin' like flies here guys, what's going on?TPK wrote: ↑Mon Sep 12, 2022 3:10 pmMadmarco wrote: ↑Sun Sep 11, 2022 9:18 pmThanks for your info ~Q~.

We're getting older, sometimes we forget or just need a break. Me, I got nothing else that I really need to do between getting my son off to school and picking him up. He's 11 and I'm 66, long story but it is what it is.Madmarco wrote: ↑Mon Sep 12, 2022 8:32 pmThat's right Tom, I hadn't noticed geocash missing either.

I just hope they're all alright and are just taking a break. Madmarco wrote: ↑Sun Sep 11, 2022 9:18 pmThanks for your info ~Q~.

Nice haul, some great lookers there, and thanks for sharing the pics with us, fun to see what's coming to others and being let in on the goodies. Vicarious living through others experiences is a treat.
