All About Pocket Knives

The Colonel thing..... I'm a Kentucky Colonel, I don't have the honor of having been in the military. Old Hunter is the real deal.

Then, due respect to you both. Through most of the 1970's I was an Enlisted Man and NCO in the U.S. Army. While I was able to accomplish much during that time and enjoyed serving my Country, I've been a PFC (Proud F#%$&*@# Civilian) since 1979 and did my time serving the private sector. My knife work is simply an extention of the same work ethic I've always had. Your happiness is my greatest reward.

My hat's off to you sir. Thank you for your service, you and all the others who've served, thank you for standing on the wall for the rest of us!

Up at the Lake camping with the kids for their spring break. Came home for a while today to pick up a few forgotten things, check the mail etc.........................................and.....................................................

BLAMMMMMMOOOOOOOO

In the box was a bomb from the Duke Of Bugmeister aka junebug aka slash a fool aka my BUDDY.

I had no idea what so ever that the knife was on the way, guess that's where the BOMB part comes in huh?

So I open the package and this really nice Imparial EO pops out. The crazy thing is I have had one of these on my check list for a while and badda bing here one is

It's tight, snappy and really purty

Thank you (Josh) SIR DUKE OF BUGMEISTER
Ya blew me away for sure.

Cutty, you're lucky Josh had it instead of me. Had it been mine, I'd have hung on to that sweet thing and no matter how good of a friend you were, you would have been outta luck. Thank God for friends like Josh, eh?

Hey, I got a question for the bomber and/or the bombee (is that a word?), junebug and Cutty. What are the bail holes filled with, just a pin? I got an EO just like that one from TripleF a week or so back, it has a couple of cracks and chips, rust pitted steel bolsters, but very solid and snappy and was wondering about trying to replace the missing bail. Looks like a pin would work just fine . Cutty, those old gals really feel good in the hand but just a tad small.

Thanks fellas, he had it coming

That rascal 313 Mike dropped this one on me today. Made sometime in the 1950s or 1960s it has not sat in a drawer all these years. It's been used and loved a lot over the years and that's what I intend to do with it. I'm planning to run it past the Lansky and drop it in my pocket. Thanks Mike. She's salty.

sweet knife, jerry...........

VERY COOL, MIKE..........

Wow that's a great little 72!

I got drill bombed yesterday
I started a knife project and was looking for suggestions on what to re-handle my Western W39 with and Glenn (glennbad) offered a selection for me to choose from......I selected, but had no idea this drill would accompany the wood slabs.....

Thanks very, very much Glenn! I am humbled!!

Scott, you can no longer say you don't own a drill. I see Glenn gave you some step by step instructions. Good on you Glenn. You're the kind of guy I would want working in my shop.

WOOO HOOO, CONGRATS SCOTT
