Yesterday I got a "Sorry, missed you .." notice from the post office but today was the day: I recieved my SY Hook.
On May 1st I got the shipping notice and only one week later it´s here. That´s incredible fast from Texas to Germany. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
My first impression was: WOW! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> What a knife! The handling is optimal for my hands and arm length. The blade catch is a very good thumb ramp. I love it. The blade came shaving sharp.
So I´m very pleased. Thanks to Patti, Dan and the rest of the Scrap Yard crew. I am totally satisfied with the complete package (the order, the nice emails and of course the knife!) Thanks.
Ok, and now what you all suffer for:

The hook:

Greetings from Germany to all the dogs out there

Sehr nette Messer! Glückwünsche! Das ist mein Lieblingsbier übrigens. Danke für die Fotos!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" />


Translation:

Very nice knives! Congratulations! That is my favorite beer by the way. Thank you for the photos!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" />

+1 on that except for the beer, I'm sure it's good though... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Right on, R/W ! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Congratulations Dilan - great knives and photos! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Tom

Nice pics. Looks like it was a nice day for taking pics.

I made a mistake with my hook. I let my nephew talk me out of it when I had a few too many beers.

Mistake, but he absolutely loves it.

It just goes to show that you shouldn't fondle your Hook while under the influence! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
Nice to hear that your nephew likes it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Tom

nice shots D, thanx for sharing <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

That is great, Dilan. I am happy to hear the Hook opens Warsteiner. It has good taste. It does not open Michelob Ultra! The perfect companion knife for hiking in Germany. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Sweet pictures. Time for me to change brands, because the hook wouldn't open Sam Adams!!

Glad it got to you - pix look great.

Now that IS a design flaw. Some one needs to bring this to Dan's attention. Unless, of course, you plan to "catch" an opponent's blade with it.

I tried real hard too. Wouldn't do it.
