Treefarmer, I'm not positive but it looks to me to be the van the Partridge Family used to travel to shows in. Maybe T.J.s bluegrass band uses it since the "Family" broke up.

Your friend,

Phil

Well, Mister I'm Going To Win With 377 and You're Not. Would you care to make a friendly little side bet? The one whose number comes closest to the winning number gets a knife sent to him by the other party. It doesn't have to be anything fancy but not something that should be in the POS round table either. (Please, no shell handles or Chinese knives) I'll even tip my hand. This is what I'm putting up. Bear MGC lockback with genuine pearl handles, 3-1/8" closed - Never used. Never sharpened. Never carried.
555 is smack dab in the middle between our numbers and a null bet -- nobody wins
Winning number is under 555 -- I send a knife to you (you have a slight numerical advantage).
Winning number is over 555 -- you send a knife to me.

The gauntlet has been thrown down. What say you sir? Pocket knives at 555 paces??

Thanks TJ, What a beautiful knife! Let me know how I can help with future giveaways.

I'll be happy with #665 please and thank you.
