Great to see you back QT!! That RRR Hedgehog I got from you has been a constant pocket companion in my marine upholstery work. It is perfect for cutting the heavy thread seams apart, to pattern the seats, etc. Many thanks to you again ... love it!
Glad to hear it, Tony. That Hedgehog is built for heavy duty work and it sounds like you found the perfect application for it.

Great gift there, Q! Kudos to Iman for his generosity. Certainly hope you’re doing well, my friend!
Mahalo, Tim
BTW--that Marbles you got from me had the second nicest rosewood I've seen on a knife.

So glad you like the knife and hope you get feeling better.
Love the knife more and more...haven't used it to cut anything yet but it's such a pleasure to handle and so hard to put down. Thanks again, brother!

I'm sorry to hear you were ill, ~Q~, health issues are never fun, but happy to hear you're on the mend.
I'd noticed you were M.I.A., but figured you were just taking a break which is always refreshing.
Great "bomb" or even more appropriate "care package" from I-man, I'm certain plenty of thought went into his decision for your knife.
It feels good knowing you're appreciated and missed doesn't it, such things are more rare every day.
Glad you're back, bud!

As I've already mentioned you got a great knife there, Dog, and how thoughtful of Tony to try to ease you pain a bit over that mail loss. You guys make great examples of what this forum is all about.

All of you, mentioned by name or not, have set the example over the past 20 years, for newer members like myself to follow. In a few words, AAPK is a good bunch to fall in or join up with. Friendship, generosity, knowledge sharing, and wit are just a few of the many good things found here. My experience has been nothing but great! Many thanks!
and
to you all!!

The dust is finally settling, I still can't hear or think straight from the concussion. It all started with an innocuous box from Kansas in my mail box. The return address was from a David, DM11 to be specific. In side was this absolutely gorgeous A Wright wooden handled Lambsfoot blade pocket knife. What a bomb! A lovely knife and even more thoughtful gift. I doubt I will carry it (to knice) but I will treasure it. Thank you David for your kindness.

you weren't the only one that had a bomb dropped on you!!!

Inside was this absolutely gorgeous GEC #15 boy's knife, beautiful bone, perfect walk 'n talk, super tight blade, just awesome!
This was about a nice a gesture as one could ever hope for, especially when one considers how near impossible it is to pick up a GEC on the
primary market. It is almost impossible to not to have to look for GEC on the
secondary market, to get one. So, it was amazing for me to get this "Bomb dropped on me" Many, many, Thanks David!!!

GSp.....I feel your pain. Obviously this attack was well planned and executed. Fitting ordinance for each target. Not just a little drone attack but a missile with multiple war heads. I also feel your surprise, joy and appreciation. What a gracious bomber and what a gorgeous knife
