A Very Busy Summer - 07/27/14 01:03 PM
Hey Dogs
It has been a busy summer and I have not forgotten you...it just may seem that way
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
Welcome back.I'm glad to hear of your mom's health.

Tom
I will let her know. The first thing she asked me when I got back from Blade was "Hows Tom...he is my Blade Show Buddy. She thinks the world of you.
At 90 she is sharp but does not get around as well as she use to do. I hope to make it to 90 not alone be sharp as she is

Dan hasn't given any hints. He's so cold, he must have a "Steel Heart."

Re: A Very Busy Summer - 08/02/14 05:27 AM
Maybe he's just a little Muddy Mutt and is waiting to to get all cleaned up. (Hey, it's the best I could do, DT has already taken all the good ones).

Maybe if we keep up our Badger Attack Dan will finally relent and bring us news. Maybe a Doggie hawk--either para cord wrapped or Res-C, kinda like the Estwing hawk and two-headed throwing axe.
