If ever a Bowl was needed...

Good luck everyone (unless there is one INFI S7 available in which case I hope you all get p.c. viruses!)(Except Dan obviously..)

I think the Dogs will be pleased to see what is coming down the road in the near future. The Yard is strong and will continue to be so.

Note: Please do not post comments and/or send emails asking about the present and/or future of things not mentioned in this post. Such comments will be moderated, deleted, or edited. When we have something to say about other products, it will be posted, and not a moment before then. Asking us about ETAs just ends up wasting both of our time. Apologies for taking such a harsh stance, but the only thing we would tell you is "it'll be done when it's done" and we're trying to prevent a repeat of the tens of thousands of comments/emails we've received asking for an ETA. Any kind of timeframe or ETA we could possibly give will be wrong and users get very disappointed when ETAs are missed. That's the nature of ETAs, they are always wrong. And due to the fact we won't release something before we feel it is ready, any ETA is even more likely to be missed.

There has been a rumor going around the Yard that there is going to be a Dog Bowl coming soon.

Excuse my newbie question. What is a Dog Bowl?

Ooops, sorry, just a few minutes after having clicked on send, I remember the name of that little cup where, sometimes, I find my meat.

Hopefully some of the time has been spent touching up the edges on the 154 steel knives. The Muppy i had was good but the HCLE's were set up with edges more suited to crashrats. All it will take to get people to love the 154 is a wicked sharp edge from the yard.

A Dog-bowl is good! It will teach the newer Pups what a feeding frenzy is all about, and help them grow into Scrappers rather quickly!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I hope its around 6 inches of infi.

Never going to happen.. But it would be VERY nice! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

scotty set credit cards to stun.

Here is a pic of the FFBM and Skinny

Yes, Steel fan! Am very aware of the dangers! My Missus is a SA & we go every year to visit her folks.. it really is "God's own Country" but am happier with a sidearm on my body...
Serious, sadly as it sounds, i love the place & in "in laws" but I NEVER feel safe there which is a shame! : (

I got my second Skinny yesterday, I got it in OD green when these came onto the store site. It makes a nice matched pair with the FFBM and I will probably keep these "painted" and use them as is. If the finish looks a bit beat up I will live with it. The colour is good to stop glare and going to a strip job and then doing a bead blast finish is a lot of work for a smarter alternative.

I will do that with the other Skinny....but want to take the grips off to do it...and am still sourcing some bits to enable me to do this.

Dare I ask? Why was Dogbert banned? I read that only very serious cases were called to task.

Maybe no need, but nice to know the general gist. the mods here (from what I have seen) work very hard to smooth out situations. I assumed when someone got banned it was a deserving move.

Thanks for the update PK.

Hi, I'm new to the yard. I have been reading the forum for several months and have learned a lot, thank guys. I have yet to post until now. I have bought a couple of swamp, scrap and busse knives on blade forum and I'm starting a small little pile of knives. I was trying to figure all this out before I stared asking questions or contributing but I don't want to miss getting a knife or two. My first questions are regarding the dog bowl. Will we be notified a date and time it starts and how long does the feeding frenzy last. Will the offerings be on the order site?
Thanks

This will be my first time ordering direct from the Yard. What I have I scored at Blade and through the help of our friend Horn Dog as well as the exchange. My question is,are the knives ready for deliver when you order them or is it more like a Busse gaanza where your order is confirmed but not delivered until completion of your knives. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

I just do a "save as" with pics from my browser. Or, sometimes I do a screen capture by pushing the print screen button, then pasting into MS Paint and saving it.

Dog Bowls are typically done 'ganza-style. Whatever will be available is announced in 48-hour post followed by a 24-hour warning (with prices) post. You get your order email ready and wait until you see a "Go" post by Dan to send it. Orders are filled in the sequence emails are received until the quantity available is exhausted. 2-3 days afterward, people start getting notices about what (if anything) they got, you pay, they ship.

Of course, the rules change from one to the next, so this could be a totally different game; we'll just have to wait and see.

Renee will be back tomorrow. She took the weekend off for the holiday and It was the only way I could get her out of my office and the trunk of my car.

I expect her to post what she has found for a Dog Bowl...she is a sneaky one

Sounds like a winner big guy. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I'll add one thing to WD's post. If the release takes place through the store and you're able to place your order successfully, make sure you print out a copy of the invoice BEFORE you complete your transaction. You may need it for future reference.

If you won't be near a printer at the time you place your order, PC users can go to Download.com and download a program called PDF ReDirect. It's free and it works. When you install it, it sets up a new virtual printer. When you select it and print, it creates a PDF file you can save to your hard disk or removable storage device. It's an indispensible program for those who don't own a copy of Adobe Acrobat Professional. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Jim the Yard-Hook lasted weeks in the store! (we were surprised) But I would guess your right and things will go pretty fast.

I just want to make sure I have a rough Idea of how this potential race to the bowl work, releases are typically posted on the forum and items bought through online store? A quick race to the buy button? Man I hope he waits to release the bowl after lunch and my plane has landed. I am really excited at the prospect of buying my fist scrap yard. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
