Someone please buy this so I won't be tempted:

Is the pic for sale? Or the knife it represents?

Who is selling this?
 
Plaza cutlery as of early this morning, still says it's available for $450.
 
Dave I almost got that Mnandi but I chose this one instead. It thought the wood looked nicer and I can always get a blue pin if I wanted one.

And you just had to include another photograph, trane fan...

Shameless exhibitionist

MO was sent early yesterday afternoon. No i just have to wait for the nice man (or woman) in the brown truck. :D ;)
 
That's a long wait on the mail man, isn't it!!

BTW, you remember I asked about Desert Ironwood, well, I've got a beauty lined up for the end of next month when I'm payed - I have been hammered into total domestic submission by the other half, the merciless woman :(

It had to happen

BUT I'm checking on it every day. Now, that's stress

What, no picture? You're slipping, Mark ;)
 
If I posted it's picture, a vulture would sneak up and snatch it.

Old Mark is too wise for that :p :p

You all won't find her that handy ;)


Stay Sharp Mark :rolleyes:
 
Last year at a knife show, I wound up buying a small block of stabilized box elder burl? It sits on my desk. Looks great, but it's just a rectangular block of it. I had some idea about slicing some off if it and doing something with it. I have to admit, it looks better in the shape of an Mnandi scale ....
 
I decided to send an email to the gentleman at the shop about that Desert Ironwood Mnandi i'm interested in. He mailed me back at 09:07 (his time) saying that he would mark her as sold and keep until the next moon for me. How about that :eek: :D :eek:

That is an outstanding service in my opinion and I am in awe of it.

The idea of waiting nearly two months and then find it sold was, to be honest, not worth the fuss. So I thought of this request, thinking all he could do was say no.

So, thankfully now, all's well - just the usual wait :( Old fashioned shopkeeping on the internet - WOW

Mark, have you told your SWMBO yet?


All's fine on that front Dave, but I still have to limit to one knife a month.

The great goddess is well pleased after I whipped something out on Monday evening :D

A pair of tickets to see Rod Steward........... Boy, do I not have to go through HELL to get a bit of pleasure :barf:

Mark :)
