3 blems for 8/23 -- Pix and big savings on good knives.

I don't know mpsi, new Kami in and no Kesar around....

You think Bill's pictures are good, eh?

Well, for several months now I've gotten a kick out of watching his writing. Remember, this the guy who must respond to posts constantly, sort of the, "death of a thousand blows"... now listen here as he promises a guarentee for each sale khuk:

"Take it home for $75 and use it for 100 years with no problem."

"Delivered to your door for $75 with full guarantee"

"Some wood filler will fix it or use as is with no problem. $50 savings. Take it away for $75 along with a lifetime guarantee."

Remember, if he doesn't vary the language he will die. That's just a fact. There are two Bill parodies I'd like to do. One, I take 16 of Bill's stock in trade phrases and fool you all that Bill is present for several days. 'Good Stuff, and thanks." "Holy Toledo' when it heats up..I might make it if no one asks too many questions. The other parody is a sort of Mad magazine version, the things I would have Bill say if he went completely mad. I can't write what he'd really like to say if he wasn't forum leader because I HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO FIGURE MARTINO OUT. Rusty might be able to do that.

Let's have normally kind, sage and polite Bill say: 'This one's guarenteed for life, of all your heirs and any piglets they may have." Or maybe he'd turn vicious: 'This guarentee is in effect even if the blade's shoved up your !!007%! and has to be surgically removed." Here's a brutally honest Bill; "This guarentee is in effect forever, or as long as the shelf you let this tool waste away on holds to the wall."

how it goes...

"don't bite the... something something."


It'll come to me.

:rolleyes:
 
I'm sure it will Kismet. I wondered if lampooning (carefully) a man we all respect might create hurt feelings. I am sorry if you have them, but not for a moment of joyfull funny stuff.

"mimicking is the highest form of respect"

Kis - I can see where you are coming but I assure you it was meant as a joke. No disrespect intended.

While I was in school I always used to mimick my favourite teacher for the simple reason that I wanted to be like him, it was practise in a way. I like to think Uncle is a teacher of life so it is just the same as when I was mimicking my school teacher - respect !!

I don't consider myself a role model and don't know enough to teach anybody anything but anybody is welcome to think otherwise if they are crazy enough and have all the fun they can in the process.
 
having all the fun is the process, with the cornball adages of a little light and love along the way.

he can't teach that, Brendan. Getting knocked down teaches that.
Gravel is our friend.

and what goes up..must come down. (boy, I'm finding my natural level, the inane)

I refuse to believe, however, that if you live by the Khuk, you will die by the khuk.

Speaking of khuks, my WWII is wounded. Handle half died on me !! Im missing a piece which I couldnt find to glue back on. Any ideas on how to fix !!
 
How big a piece? make an epoxy stew and set it in..look under 'search' under horn repair, I guess. If it's a really big piec I bet Bill has chunks laying around from broken horn handles..maybe he'd send you one and you could cut out what you need.

I like those WWll's.

It's wood, Kendo suggests replacing it with bone or amber - quite like the idea but don't know if I can shape a piece properly. I am a perfectionist so it has to be perfect !!

Thanks Brad
