#15 arrived today- Nice knife! I like the maple leaf tooled on the back side of the leather sheath! :grin2: I think I get to visit the Toronto area end of the month on business.

No worries! It started life as an adaptation of "MP3" as I was one of the first people in my circle of friends to start collecting music digitally rather than on disc... They nicknamed me "empy" back then, I adapted it for the web!

I keep pestering Alana, our office girl here at camp, checking to see if the post's come yet! anybody know how long it should take to reach Maine?
thats interesting! of course none of us collect mp3s form anything other then legitamate MP3 stores now right...

:grin2:

:mecry::mecry:let us know where you are headed, some areas are alot easier to drive than others. If you have major highways it's alot easier, if you're in a two lane situation not so good. Darn.......................

I just got off the phone with Carol and George. They are a real pleasure to have met and I'm happy to call them friends. Very nice people indeed!!

Now onto the knife. I received it yesterday:wow:. It's a very beautiful knife. It fits great in my hand and is more substantial then I thought it would be, by just looking at the pictures. You can tell by just looking at the knife, the amount of time and care that went into this project.

This was a very nice experience and I would personally like to thank everyone involved.:thanks::goodjob:.
Thanks Steve

Carol.... Are you and George feeling better?

Thankyou for asking :) I'm getting there, George has more tests to endure and at the Dr's today it seems George is now the proud papa of a 1/2" dia kidney stone :shakehead

This seems to be the year of the Doctor.......................:whistle:

Overall George is starting to feel abit better but is quite tired, that will pass over time. How kind of you to ask. "Thankyou"

Hope all is well in your house.

Cheers, Carol:wave:

OUCH! (Fortunately, based on the experiences of friends!)

My destination will be Kingston, midway between Toronto and Montreal on the 401 according to my map software. I will be visiting with others, and lack a clue where we will fly into, and even if it's Toronto, I doubt I'll be able to arrainge a side diversion. (Can't rule it out, either :D )

Overall, I can't complain.

Here's hoping that the face of the doctor is something that becomes a distant memory in your home.

Mine arrived today and I'm very please. The leather sheath is so rigid and fine, it reminds me of a horse saddle.

Excellent work! :goodjob:


Thank you George and Carol for doing this for us!

You said you are looking for something else to do for us? How about a stand or display case for our knives? One that could display the knife in either direction maybe? Or even include a space for the sheath?

According to USPS website mine was "delivered" at 11:29am today... Only problem is nobody at camp has seen it... I'll give it until the postie arrives tomorrow and then start panicking if it's not here!

Hopefully this doesn't spoil the record and become the "Lord Lucan" of the knife world!

UPDATE : May 15th, 2008 - FINAL SHIPMENT LEFT TODAY !!!!

-------------------------
The final shipment left today- below are the list of fellows:

1) Tensixteen
2) Tensixteen Sr.
3) Ghostreaction
4) Sesh
5) Crenshaw

---------------------------------
This is kind of a sad day for us because now ALL of the project has been shipped. There are no more. :mecry:

Your PROJECT is TOTALLY COMPLETE :wave:

What we're waiting for is to hear from everyone who received one.

There are a number of you still awaiting arrival but it shouldn't be long. The ones that shipped today will take a little longer.

We'll keep checking the thread for photos and arrival notices.

I wouldn't start to panic yet here's what I found on the site: To me that means that it arrived at the post office in your area and likely will arrive to you tomorrow.:)

God how did I miss this? These are fantastic. If you do another one I'm in!

Great work.

:crackup::poke: I can't imagine how you missed this :):) there has been a picture on the top of the forum for months now. Missie just took it down this past week when major work has been taking place on the forum.

We'd love to have you join in if something else gets started;)

Cheers, Carol

THankyou but George isn't a wood worker, he's a metal worker, i.e. knives, sterling silver bably spoons, that kind of thing, and of course wood as in handles :):)

Appreciate the thought ,

Cheers, Carol
