No GF. I was just trying to imagine our troops in the desert wearing steel-plated armour vests. The flak jackets we had in VietNam were bad enough, but steel plates? Have you given up already on your quest for the big choppers ? I think you need to keep reminding them at the Yard. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

We had ceramic plates in the desert....when I was on the police force here we had steel trama plates. I actually brought it with me and kept it, the ceramic plate and a few playboys in my vest!

Don't feel bad, Andy. I never got around to getting a camp tramp either. I just figured they'd be around forever.
My new scrapper is helping me get over any feelings of loss I was experiencing, though.

GF - now THAT is being prepared! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> rooikat - good point about "blade substitution". I still don't understand the Swamp's decision to drop the "flagship model" BattleRat and excellent Camp Tramp. I have great hopes for the Yard, and would really like to see them make more great knives at affordable prices. Tom <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Same thing happened to me with the Rat Trap...had to go to the secondary market for it!...Turned out better than I had planned, but this was the exception...not the rule!

I guess we will have to keep ourselves and our brethren buying Yard knives so the Shop will be too busy to quit! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I doubt it. I hear that Dan and Patti treat the employees so well that they wouldn't WANT a union. After all, just think of the benefits - KNIVES !
