Old member here. Ain't posted in probably 4 or 5 years. Lot of life changes and kinda lost interest in knives for a bit. Was going through some knives and got to feeling nostalgic. Just wondering who is still here that I would recognize. Lot of new members and some changes. Look forward to meeting folks that I missed out on

Yes sir, I remember you. If my old memory is working you're a fellow Floridian.
That old Farmall hood for an avatar jogged the memory, I think. ::shrug::
Welcome back. ::handshake::

Welcome back UMC! It's good to have you back!
I haven't been as active the last 3 years myself. My wife was ill and I was busy caring for her. I didn't have a lot of energy for working on knives. She passed away last year, and I got married this year. My wife likes knives and even helps me at the shows now.
People come and go here for various reasons, but we love it they return! Welcome back!!

We had the same problem in Orange County, building up, we left in 1973 and moved to the Panhandle and now it seems to be growing too much!
I think we may have a nephew in Sparta. ::hmm:: Anyhow, glad to see you back

Yea we looked around Fort Meade, Alturas, Babson Park, and Lake Wales. Not much for sale there at the time. Have spent a lot of time with family in the area up here over the years and decided this was the place.

Thanks everyone for the welcome backs

Hey! Welcome back!

No - you don't know me, I'm relatively new around here as a member, but I am a long time visitor. However, the only way I know to get on your "remember me?" list is to engage and introduce myself. I'm pleased to meet you, and I look forward to hanging out here with ya and all the others.
