All About Pocket Knives

Got a heavy package in the mailbox yesterday. I haven't made any purchases recently, so I was gonna toss it in the pool until I recognized the name of the sender.
The unselfish sender wishes to remain anonymous, but I can tell you it is a fellow AAPK member who makes a habit of being generous.
I had posted in another thread that I collect old foundry advertising items, especially cast iron items like statues, paperweights, and bookends.
Well this particular cast iron piece is a "holy grail" of sorts for old foundry men like myself. Many foundries make this casting in the classic form of a shirtless sand crab filling a sandmold using a ladle. This is one of the best examples of that pose I've ever seen, and now it is the prize of my collection.
I just wanted to say a public THANK YOU!
I've never known a group to be as giving, caring, and generous as the ladies and gentlemen who make up this forum.
