We call ourselves a knife family. If we are then lets help our brothers and sisters in the Gulf. Our prayers are with you. If you can help in anyway don't be afraid to post. Not preaching, but it can happen to any of us, so let's show our support to our knife family and prove what we say. It might not be more than a shout out, but that means a lot. My prayers are with you. Stay sharp.See More

Beware the man with one gun...

My dad always said beware the man with one gun, he knows it inside and out. I wonder if its the same with knife people?

bait and switch

I find my  choices in knives change weekly. One week I'm all about you get what you pay for,the next week I make a new buy and say I  could have got 4 of these for what I paid for that.

The knife world is changing and its tough to keep up. I guess that's what keeps us moving on.

If this happens to you let me know so I know I'm not out of focus.

I was waiting on UPS to deliver my order from SMKW and they were late. My kids beat them home and the four Marbles I had ordered is now just two. So much for being a Dad with two collector offspring. Hope they like them as much as I do. Got to place another order. Bring on tomorrow! I cant wait. Happy Easter everyone! I wonder what my kids are getting for easter? Bet it will be sharp looking.

lol John you are too funny. Here is my recommendation,  when trying to respond to chat and I am going to assume you are already in chat. you see things typed there people are talking, try typing in the box on the bottom and enter. if you don't see anything hold your cursor over the little wheel at the bottom of the screen, it will say connect click on it to disconnect then click again to reconnect and you should see your typing. Just try that and see if it works. Thanks my friend we will get you there! lol
