Re: For Sale: Rolling Knife Display Case Storage Rack

Tried Craigslist and FB Marketplace with only tire kickers or Nigerian scammers. I’m willing to drive 3-4 hours in any direction of Wilmington NC to meet a buyer halfway - I just want to see it out into service once again hopefully with a knife collector. Anyone passing through on their way to the B...

thanks for the very fine response and feedback - I agree with you 100% ::tu::

Re: Santa Fe Stoneworks

Actually I let Anna Wirtel one of the business owners pick it out for me - I asked Anna for her idea of a knife that was quintessentially Santa Fe and that’s what she went with. They shipped it home for me since I was flying and the leather slip was a most welcomed gift.

Re: Push Dagger For Your Phone

My smartphone is huge as it is, to add a push dagger isn't helping the situation. I like the neck knife idea but for $65 there are tons of choices if I was going in that direction (which I am not). I was really interested to hear from our modern tactical collectors to see what they thought of this o...

no worries brother - they are all good questions but I think of it as one of the few mysteries of life worth waiting for - no spoiler alerts unless someone spots an AAPK shield on the GEC production line (which has happened).
