Johnston knife collection

Post by CarMan »

Just wanted to show off my knife collection that people on here have so generously helped with & say thank you. These knives and tool kits are all Johnston USA. FYI I like them because Johnston is my last name.

I thought so, thank you.
I know HE died for me, I just need to work harder at living for HIM (not that I could ever earn my salvation).

Hi CarMan:

I have a Johnston (dark brown covers, nice condition) that you can have. I'll take a pic tomorrow.

Hi CarMan:

Attached are pics of the Johnston that I have. I don't want anything for it--knife and postage are on me. I donate to St. Jude's Children's Hospital, and I have a number of their postage-paid envelopes lying around here at home. I will include one with the knife. If you feel like you want to pay something for the knife and feel so inclined, please just stick a $10 bill in the envelope and drop it in a mailbox. You don't even have to give a return address.

If this is okay by you, please send me your mailing address by PM.

Great bombing run, Chris!
Thank you for supporting St Jude's as well, and encouraging others. There are many worthy charities in the world, but St Jude's Children's Hospital is one where I do not have to worry if my money is being spent wisely. They are one that I know I can trust.

Thanks, Reverand. I appreciate the kind words. Yes, I agree 100% regarding St. Jude's--such a worthy place in which to donate.

Very cool to collect knives with your name. And a nice collection as well.
