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 🔪.
::nod:: You said it D.L. .... ::skeptic:: even though I have been the victim of a deliberate "sneak attack" :shock: ... ::woot:: somehow I feel pretty good 'bout the whole darn thing..... ::shrug::

D.L. .... :shock: you weren't the only one that had a bomb dropped on you!!! ::oh_my:: ... The 'Ol TopDog got blow'ed up too!!! ::skeptic:: ... like you, ::paranoid:: ... It all started with an innocuous box from Kansas in my mailbox. ::paranoid:: The return address was from a David, ::paranoid:: DM11 to be specific.... ::woot:: 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!!! ::handshake::
You pics show off the bone nicely! 👍🤠

::handshake:: Thanks Mark, I looked at that knife many times, but didn't buy it due to buying other knives instead. You know how that is.
Mark must have a sixth knife sense or is a mind reader ... Ha! 8) :D

Mark does have some sort of 6th sense when knives are involved, Tony, just look at the knives he shows us. I'd love to see some of what he hasn't shown us yet eventually. A true believer for sure. ::tu::

@#&^%$!?&$ incredible GSP. You are one lucky dude bud.
DM11 that is one fabulous bomb bud, cannot say enough about one of my fave patterns and bone. I'd say as good of a replacement for GSPTDs lost Case as there will ever be. Man what great people hang out around here. I can imagine that bomb will be better than Christmas this year GSP. Maybe better than the next ten Christmases. ::tu:: ::tu:: ::ds:: :mrgreen: ::ds::

I want to say to toomanyknives; "You Dropped a Bomb on Me" ::oh_my:: And "toomanythanks" for sending it my way ... "it is the thought that counts" ::handshake:: !!! ::tu:: ::tu::

TMK, sent me a Boker (see top photo) with celluloid scales that are outgassing ::oh_my:: to use for the shield and spare parts... ::paranoid:: and he packed another knife in the tightly sealed box as a thoughtful gift ::nod:: .... However ..... ::skeptic:: It turns out that putting a very good condition, rust free knife in a sealed box with another knife that has outgassing celluloid scales might be a bad idea (see bottom photo) ::doh:: ..... ::facepalm::

I got bombed on Monday, but it wasn't a knife bomb. Very unexpected, thanks, Tom!!! 💣 Somehow he channeled that I had Marx O gauge trains and loved marzipan. 🤔
