2009 BladeForums Traditional Forum Knife updates

Bit difficult to chill here mate, it's 36C in the shade. :)

I am, however, going down to the pub for lunch shortly and I'll have a chilled ale there which should help. :)
 
Geez, I forgot about this great knife.

It will be a good looking one to have in the pocket for sure.

Thanks again, Steven and Gus, for doing this.
 
You people who are getting this knife,albeit before Christmas or soon after,have a lot to look forward to! Excellent!
 
Sorry for the brusque tone of some previous postings.:o

Gus didn't offer to co-chair this year's knife with me for my sunny bedside manner, but he knew that I would bulldog the production side of things from beginning to knife-in-hand.

To that, just got an e-mail from Queen that the samples I sent back to them have been rec'd, so now we just wait for notification that they are ready to ship, and pay the final balance.

We'll keep you all posted.

Best Regards,

STeven Garsson

At the risk of sounding like I'm brown nosing, I can sincerely say that I don't know of anyone that is better equipped to handle this task. As soon as I saw it was you and Gus handling it, I figured the knife was destined to be a winner.

But I still think it's funny that your (beautiful :thumbup:) patio contains a plant commonly known as mother-in-law tongue for its sharp, potentially dangerous, leaves. :p

My poolside patio side that does NOT have a walking area also has a medium sized Century plant, which is even more potentially dangerous than the mother-in-law tongue....we like how it looks....thanks for the compliments.

Yippeee!!:)
Thanks STeven, Thanks Gus......Looking forward to seeing them:)
 
Brusque? It appeared to me you are mellowing a little from hanging around all these laid back slipjointers. :D
 
I doubt that we will ever get our knives anyway, the LHC has started up again and I'm sure we'll all be sucked into a black hole and transported to some weird alternative universe where slipjoints are regarded as mall ninja toys and something like Dork Ops products will be considered the only suitable equipment for gentlemen.

Either that or some conspiracy involving Victorinox and CERN to create a new super steel with the spontaneous forced injection of massive amounts of liquid helium at near light speed velocities. At least turn another setback into a boon for the knife industry.

Yer a strange quark, gajinoz. :thumbup:

Not sure what was a bad idea.

I'll repeat it, slowly......

When the knives come in, they will ship out to you guys.

What is the sense for Gus to hang onto the knives until after the first of the year if they show up the first week in December?

While the consideration from the Forumites is appreciated, at this point it wasn't asked for....maybe it will be, maybe not.

The point was that certain Forumites were pestering Gus with "Are they here yet?" PM's and such, and that was uncalled for.

OK, OK! So are they here yet? Are they here yet??:D
