I'm glad it finally made it to you Charlie, it was in the mail so long I almost forgot about it! I hope you have a very Happy Birthday my friend

Thanks for all the kind words folks

.............congratulations to you, Charlie..........and what a lovely jesture, Jack

Jack Black You're a good man.

It's actually made from a British bayonet, it actually says so on the handle somewhere

Your picture makes it clear, Jack! I was having trouble reading "bayonet"!!
I am grateful for your overflowing generosity, Jack!! Thanks for the good wishes and happiness!!

That folder is STAGalicious!

Integral bolsters, and Stag a bit crudely applied, but keeping the curved character. It's pretty interesting alright!! Glad you like it Glenn!!

Who doesn't get excited about a package from the Great Guardian of the Lambsfoot!!???
Jack Black sent me a passel of goodies, way more than he hinted he might send me one day!!View attachment 2635438View attachment 2635449Of course, a knife!! Accompanied by three others!!! A theater knife, likely completed the year I was born by a British soldier in Italy in the waning days of the War!!! Also, a Cretan folder, a fixed blade pruner from Sheffield, and a Stag folder, also from Sheffield!! Jack knows I collect corkscrews, and included a nice old example, along with a large Victorian penny from 1900 - a year before that great Monarch passed away!!View attachment 2635453
And finally, a bracelet of Lava beads, a bar of Olive Oil soap, and a post card of Sissi, Crete,
(spectacular place)!!
I am honored, and humbled, by all these goodies, Jack!! Thank you so much!!
I turn 80 next month, so the box came in a timely manner!!!

Oh my.....such delights Charlie. I can just picture the smile. Congrats and enjoy those treats. ..especially that stag.
Jack, the master of gifts and surprises.

Honestly I always read things the wrong way.

When I saw "A Delight from Leeds!!" I thought Charlie had met Brenda from the fish and chip shop on the corner...



But seriously Jack is very generous with his time and gifts,there is some very interesting stuff there.

Happy birthday Charlie I also thought you where "Way" younger (see what I did there)?





Clare has a little tune for you.
