Not that it matters a whole lot but in the interest of pocket knife accuracy I don't consider it a Navy, Sailors or rope knife. the blade profile is not correct for any of those. To me it's just a large sheepsfoot jack, a very nice one at that and one I'm glad I ordered 2 of.

I don't care what it's called as long as it gets Shipped and Sails into my mailbox soon :p
 
I also received a shipping notification (to the Netherlands). Now the big question is how long will it take and how badly will they stick it to me with import fees and duties...

Coupled with a custom I ordered from T.A. Davison which should be ready in a few weeks, it looks like I will be having some nice new knives to help me ring in 2020!
 
Post Office CAN still be quick these days. I got shipping confirmation from TRM for my new Neutron on Tuesday, and it was in my mailbox last night (Wednesday). One day shipping! Not sure if it was sent as overnight, I can check the label when I get home again.

Also, a caveat: it was from Massachusetts to Maine...

It can be! My new Dunlap shipped from me last Monday and got to him (south Louisiana to eastern Oklahoma) Wednesday. He had it back in the mail Thursday morning and I got it Saturday. But, the tracking was all jacked up. It still doesn’t show as delivered.
 
wonder how these shipping notices are going out since it doesnt appear to be alphabetical by name

UPDATE

As we suspected, the knives will start shipping from the factory today. The first knives will go directly from the factory to international members. One note; the factory will produce a new invoice solely for customs that shows the purchase price only. It will not include the additional shipping charge just to keep things simpler. For the same reason, your original receipt will not be included.

It looks like the rest will come to me in at least three shipments with the last leaving the factory next Wednesday. I will ship what I receive in the sequence the order was placed originally. So, please be patient.

These are dropping during THE busiest week of the year, but I do not anticipate any delays. On the other hand, the USPS has been a day or two slower since the first of the month.

Typical shipping from Mike to the Seattle area has been three days via USPS. Can't complain about that kind of service. Mail from the local area sometimes takes longer than that. I am really looking forward to receiving my 2 forum knives. We all should be grateful to Mike for taking the time to do this.

Very much so.
If anyone hasn't perused Mike's regular offerings recently, I highly recommend doing so.

He’s already very very high on my list. Usually only go elsewhere cause he don’t have what I’m seeking.
 
I don't think we need a poll to offer thanks to all the players "wokin' fa nuttin'" to make everything happen. I'm very thankful and excited for my 5th forum knife.

And here's to hoping there's still a little juice left in the tanks to ensure a 2020 knife happens also. I'm also VERY excited for the 2020 #46 Whaler Forum Knife. Maybe somehow with added Marlin Spike, also making it a PPP design release.

Just putting it out there. :):D:):cool: Now up to those with more clout than I to get the ball rolling hard, fast, and early.... for the most unique forum knife in forum history. :thumbsup::cool::D
