I hate that I'm posting this, but computers give Nick migraines.
Another great story of anonymous generosity. I really didn't do anything and don't deserve Nick's praises. Nick and I wanted to post this here to spread the word of the generous men that got Nick a knife he could use. How would you feel if you couldn't use a knife?
Here's Nick's post:
So some of you may know due to an earlier post about a AMS i was injured overseas and due to nerve damage holding my TGLB isnt an option nor is opening my spyderco with 1 hand......well i was contacted by Flux and an anonymous benefactor wanted to send me a SYKCO 4-11 and that he would like to contribute by finding me a sheath. He contacted 3 long time Busse and Kin sheathmakers all of which were willing to make the sheath or had 1 already made. Well everything came together and i am the happy owner of a 4-11 its awsome its kind of hard to explain but i can feel and control it without causing myself pain but still being able to get a good grip and the sheath which came from David Brown is superb holds the 4-11 like a glove and has a great fit and finish and top notch hardware came with a tek loc. Needless to say i love it and would like to thank all those involved .......The Anonymous Benefactor , David Brown, Rainwalker , Azwelke and Flux. I am deeply touched by all of your generosity and i am in debt to you all.
And here is the thread. Everyone should go check out his threads. The man nearly got his head blown off defending our country.

http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1087633PLEASE don't give me any recognition for anything. I asked Nick to keep me anonymous, too. I just think this is another awesome story and that Nick's experiences are both tragic and fascinating. Thank the Sheath makers who all pulled through for a wounded soldier, this awesome anonymous donor

One more. Thank you to Scrapyard, for making knives that are so ergonomic and light, not to mention inexpensive and high performing. Nick says that when he gets better, he is going to use it in combat, along with hjs TGLB. I wish he was on here because his stories of using his (what I think to be) original Steel Heart to do everything from fighting, standing on it to climb and flipping burgers.
