I've been taking the JerryD Webmaster of the Universe class as an apprentice and man am I getting my money's worth! ::super_happy::

I put a new spring in this ol' Geo. Schrade about 10 months ago, still fires great.

Wiseguy, I don't like to use the term rare very often but calling that Presto fairly rare is a bit of an understatement.

Kieth, You are going to be hard pressed to ever upgrade that knife. Beautiful condition.

My latest pickup, I could not get the etch to show. It's ATLANTIC, in block letters.
