Thanks Andy- I might take you up on that if I can steal her cameras. Your links are great- they have kept me busy for many hours my friend. How are you tonight ?

ord- haven't been on those classic waters yet. at this point in my life i have the problem where work and family keep getting in the way of my 'too many' recreational pursuits. my annual cycle usually keeps me in the high country for much of the early river season, while the ducks, pheasant, and quail keep me busy in the fall. on the other hand, i think we're planning a grand ronde trip next month to see if we can keep from freezing and tie into some steelhead (seriously off season, but i hear they're 'in there'). hopefully the river isn't too bony - not good on the hard sided boats!

Naw- just go with the bangin bods or they will break you all up. That is what they do. Bangin Bods-Yep - for sure <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
Nice pics Jimmie <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Art, you're not going to find those two in red alox with the white cross. They are MINT condition early 80's models from my collection. The top one is called a Pioneer Rancher, and the bottom one is a Pioneer Harvester. I also have each model in Gold alox... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

You can still get them in standard silver alox Art.

Evo, have you encountered the other major challenge with women? Moola.
How is it possible that even nowadays where we are all "supposed" to be "equal" I still end up broke?
That's why I am spending my cash on blades while I have no one to give me the evil eye.
I know later I won't stand a chance.

Her's another for the rare SAK lovers. It's a copper Farmer. There were only 125 of these made by Victorinox. Sorry for the poor quality pic...

reminds me of the mattel release of "divorced barbie"... she comes with all of ken's stuff.

I'm ok. I have several more knife related articles I'm planning to scan and add, so there'll be more interesting info there in the future. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

That Harvester is exactly what I'm looking for Tolly. I'll take standard. I 'll go look for one now. Those belong in a museum. I guess considering your collection, I'd recommend you ask the state for funding since you're already there.
Too bad our economy is crap right now, I recommend you charge admission.

Bony can be painful I can tell you for sure. I am at a point in my life where I am doing what I want about 200 days out of the year. So- I am rafting- cycling- climbing- and exercise every morning. I raised foor- put em through college and helped them build houses. Now- it is MY TIME. That yellow lab in my avatr is my best buddy and he is with me most of the time too. He is a money dog ( currency sniffer) . He is 14 months and i have worked with him since a baby ( 9 weeks) Just keep enjoying yourself EVERY single day and have fun. Life is good for sure my friend <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

GASP!!!!!

i hate you, tolly. that copper farmer's amazing.

Yup. Love is usually expensive.
