Yes it is! The suspense is killing me! Just 4 more weeks till Christmas!

I hope Santa blows your socks off.

[TPK]

I'm sure he will! And to be honest about it, I kinda feel like a kid again waiting for Santa to come! Almost 50 & excited about Christmas like a 5 year old! Didn't know that was still possible.

[New_Windsor_NY]

Hey.....

Thank you, John.

Well Santa (Cuz, AKA Colonel26) blew my socks off today. I knew something was coming but not exactly what. This Buck 726 Mini Spitfire showed up and I'm just tickled pink. Thanks Cuz. She's a fine piece of cutlery and I'm glad to welcome her to my pile.

[doglegg]

Wade, you're always dead on with your aim! Congrats Jerry.

[jerryd6818]

He is indeed. Thanks Floyd.

[1967redrider]

Good job, Colonel, and sweet knife, Jerry.

Hello Folks,

I'm back to report on the Bomb I recieved from 1967redrider (John) back in November. If you can remember from my previous post back in November, I had let my daughter take out one knife from the package and wrap it up for me for my Birthday in November. It turned out to be a sweet little yellow Case Peanut. So you can imagine my surprise when I opened the box with the rest of the knives yesterday evening and found but yet another yellow Case Peanut.

As it turns out, one is with SS & one is with CV. John wanted me to be able to compair the two steels with each other. What a great guy! A pair of Peanuts in different steels! Wahnsinn!

There are a whole number of great knives. Theres a Camillus with fancy bolster, cool blade & a bail, a Victorinox "Dessert Warrior", my first ever U.S. made Winchester knife (Awesome), my first ever knife with Scrimshaw on it (Schrade), an Imperial "Trick knife" (that I already got my son with last evening), a couple of cool knife stickers and..., a little knife with a neat story behind it. (Thank you very much for the "Save" Herb! )

Anyways, it was one heck of a Bomb!!! More than I can even fit into one post alone. I will take pictures of all the knives & post them in the appropriate threads as I have time over the next week or so. (Probably within a few days.)

Thanks for everything! Your generosity blows me away John! Your too kind buddy!
And thanks for the Save Herb! Very cool of you!

Have a wonderful Christmas everyone & thanks for looking friends!

Good for you Tom

Good on you John.

[1967redrider]

Glad you enjoyed my little Knifer's Care Package, Tom. And the International Shipping was a learning adventure for me. Pleasantly surprised how easy everything went.

I recieved a package from the "AAPK in LaVale MD". My mom lives in LaVale but she was not the sender. There were no notes inside. Just a beautiful 2020 - 6254SS - Navy Blue Bone - Rogers Jig - Trapper.

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.

Great one to get TPK, congrats and consider yourself blessed and lucky. Think I might recognize the hand writing on that box addressed to Germany, but you won't get a peep out of me who it might be. Rock on bomber and the bombed. Great stuff here.

Hey Tom.. That John is a slick devil..

I knew something was coming my way, but I had no idea what. Well, it hit me about 15 minutes ago with a much bigger explosion than I could have imagined!

The book, a '67 GTO, a Master Mechanic, and an absolutely amazing Case 6235 1/2! I'll be getting a few more pics of the Case posted up.
Funny the GTO has Petty's number 43; that was my jersey number back when I played high school football. I still use the 43 as a tag on some of my other user names. Some here may know Swarden43!

The book is no kiddie coloring book, but a real guy's encyclopedia of the history of the GTO. Love it!!

Thanks, John!!!
