welcome vwb, the yard is, in my opinion, the finest knife/outdoor forum on the internet. Everyone is nice, helpful, and the general vibe is such that your experience does not surprise me. Be sure you don't forget the outdoor/fieldcraft forum, thats is IMO where it all goes down.

Glad you've joined, and props for kirk <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
