I have tables for it . keep up the good work us rebels . ps I read your toenail thing at case collectors fourm that where the rebel comes from I know it fits me

Thanks for the welcome Scott.Very friendly here. A nice positive space. I very much enjoy being here.

Thank you kindly for the welcome. Nice place, good people, I'm hoping I'll be able to learn alot here. Good luck with the surgery and hope to talk with you more.

Really like the site, thanks for having me!

Hi Scott, thanks for the invite. Proud to except and sorry to have the first thing I read on your profile, is that your having surgery. Hope it's not anything too major and that it all works out for ya. Your right about my being a sucker for the old ones and really enjoyed checking out your ol' Elephant Toenails.(and other knives) I have to admit, that's one pattern I've never included in my collection. It hadn't dawned on me until just a short time back how old that pattern is, but it's been around quite a spell, huh? Anyway, I'm real glad to be part of the forum. In the short time I've been here, I've already met up with some mighty fine folks. I haven't tried to post any pics yet but will give it a shot ASAP. Thanks again for the invite and good luck with your surgery, Rob

Thanks to you and everyone for the welcomes!

Thanks for the welcome.

Thanks Scott and thank you to all the guys here

Scott, Thanks again for the warm welcome and the information on the Cotton Sampler blade. It has been a fun week becoming familiar with the site, and I am still learning the many avenues of communication. As I said in one post, the site is all new and shiny. Perhaps like a fresh knife :-). I am pretty sure that I became familiar with one of your articles in the Cutlery News Journal sometime back when cruising the web. The article had a picture of 4 toenail knives which the author relayed were the origin of his knife collecting affliction. ah er hobby. And unless I am mixing stories like metaphors, the author further went on to describe the spirit world ( as in voices and shoes dropping in the night) of how the knives spoke to him saying I'm the one . You know you'll take me home no matter what. Well Scott if that was you then I can blame / thank you for helping me along in my knife collection journey. The voices started saying come on you know you do not want to miss this opportunity, you will never have another chance. Well Scott, not sure if that was your article, but now I have found an entire web site that may have the same underlying voice that it is ok to have a little fun in life, swap a few stories, and pick up a few knives for the box. All the best, Bill
