A Very Generous Gift

Jackknife said it above... that's the kind of man to work for. Nice story, especially at this time of year with the holidays approaching.
 
Ben,
Thats the MAN I would want to call Boss, and I bet you are a Great Employee and FRIEND to him.
Birds of a feather flock together.
 
He and his wife are much more like family than employers. Over the years we have spent various major holidays with them and I know they think of us as a couple more of their kids. In addition to being a generous employer, he is generous with other people. Last year one of his daughters friends was helping put on a charity event with and auction for special needs kids. First he donated an elk hunt on the ranch, a $5000 value. Then he said he liked the girl and her special needs brother so he donated his brand new BMW touring motorcycle. He has the means to do things like that and even more so, he like to do those types of thing for people. As I said before I'm very lucky to work for him and proud to be able to call him my friend.
 
That is an awesome set.
You boss must really appreciate what you do for him.

I few weeks ago the Boss was out at at the ranch and invited my wife and I for dinner. As we were enjoying a couple of beers before dinner the conversation came around to knives. We talked about pocket knives for a bit then moved on to fixed blades.

As others have noted, he sounds like a great guy. Just curious: What sorts of folders does he favor?

Ben, that is so awesome!!! Wow, just wow!!! I put bosses into two categories. One you'd like to put a bullet in and the other is one you'd take a bullet for.

Being a boss myself I shoot for the latter :D

Okay, this made me laugh. Lotsa bullets flying around in the above scenario. :D

Ben, congratulations, and thanks for sharing your good fortune and the pictures of the knives.

I always appreciate hearing that sometimes the good guys end up getting to work together. :)
