Re: BOMBS AWAY!!! THE UN-OFFICIAL OFFICIAL BOMB THREAD
Now I find that you can get them several places here in town. I was telling Linnea about them and she said "Oh yeah. I have a jar right here in my cubbard". Sheesh. Everybody knew about them but me. Good thing I've got Chris to introduce me to new to me things.

Ooooooo, those are good. Several of our grocers carry them. My youngest grandson (who is 9) told me about them last year. I love 'em.jerryd6818 wrote: ↑Mon May 03, 2021 7:26 pm HOT DAMN. And I do mean HOT. Received an unexpected package this afternoon from Chris (Royal0014). He had sent me a jar of Wickles Pickles and holy moley are they good. He said it's a local brand. I had to open the jar right away and I was blown away. Hot but not too hot, they're a semi-sweet pickle and boy howdy are they ever delicious. Thank you Chris. You done good ole son.
I just discovered the Walmart in Freeport carries them.

Old Cutler, the renowned knife mechanic, miniature duck decoy carver, beautiful wood pen maker and general all around wood craftsman, bombed me with one of his beautiful walnut lid covers. Beautiful workmanship, beautiful wood and wonderful candy holder. I have a couple of things from James and proud to own such craftsmanship. Thanks OC, I am honored to receive it.
Re: BOMBS AWAY!!! THE UN-OFFICIAL OFFICIAL BOMB THREAD
OC certainly knows how to turn a piece of wood into a piece of art.
Congrats, Floyd, that walnut wood is beautiful.
Well done, OLDE CUTLER...excellent craftsmanship and marksmanship!

Re: BOMBS AWAY!!! THE UN-OFFICIAL OFFICIAL BOMB THREAD
I got blindsided yesterday by one of our members who does post very much. He been a member here on AAPK about one year and he is becoming very good knife custom of mine, and a friend. Imagine my surprise when post office to pick up my mail. I thought it was odd, since I didn't have a package coming, but that was a key in my box for a package locker. I opened up the locker and there was a box side. I went out to the car and opened the box and was totally flabbergasted by what greeted! Here is an original early Al Mar!
It is an Al Mar falcon with the original box, it should be from the early 1980s, possibly 1982.
Thank you Mel! I was totally stunned. Mel and I have discussed the knife on the phone but he had said nothing about buying it little will give you get. As many of you know Al Mar was a friend of mine who spent little time wandering through the jungle as well. This is a very special gift in so many ways, the fact that it is an Al Mar is very important. I love the GE paper micarta and the scrimchaw. The fact that this is obviously hand scrimmed and #1 of 2 makes it even more special!I got blindsided yesterday by one of our members who does post very much.
