Hello from South of Buffalo!

Post by tac803 »

Morning all,
I stumbled across this site after trying to research some of the pocket knives I have accumulated over the last few years. It has not yet become an all consuming obsession, but I'm afraid I am well down that road! It all started with the Boy Scout knife that my Mom and Dad bought me, and that I carried religiously until I lost it many years ago. I learned a couple of lessons early on. One was that a good knife was something that I didn't want to be without, no matter what the situation. The other was that if you try to peel a golf ball in the back seat of a moving car, you are going to take a detour to the local emergency room to get your hand stitched back together! Not the last time I had to see those good folks...
I look forward to learning about the good stuff here. I'm glad I found a bunch of like minded folks who appreciate the value of a good piece of cutlery.
John

THANKS! The next time I will be sure to take a pic or 2 if I can stop the blood long enough to get the I-phone out! Think I found a second home ::tu::

Welcome tac803 ::handshake:: ! About the middle of the winter, you'll need to remind our buddy Scott (TripleF), why he's in Florida. I don't think he has become a full fledged redneck yet because of the alligators, mosquitos, and humidity ::nod:: .

Yeah. I think Scott has forgotten what it's like to have snow up to your cheeks for three months straight. ::uc:: :x :x
