Hey Dogs

It has been a busy summer and I have not forgotten you...it just may seem that way smile

The summer started off with the Blade Show which was a huge effort and an amazing success. We then rolled into a short vacation. We followed this by getting my daughter scheduled for out of state college. Then to top it off Patti and I decided to down size our home since the kids are starting to move on. We sold our house in 7 days (WOW who would have thought)and bought another home. We will close in the next few weeks. In addition, I have been working on new offerings.

The best news and activity of the last 8 months is that my Mom who just turn 90 years old was recently diagnosed with a clean bill of health after fighting lung cancer...a lot of doctors and treatments. Just amazing and very Cool!

So I'm back, lets talk knives

BY the way, Congrats to Tom for skunking me at the Blade Show with the challenge coin...way to go Tom. You will need to let me know which current production knife you want with the Coin Challenge Winner lasered into the Blade...CHEERS!

Dan
