"Carl's Lounge" (Off-Topic Discussion, Traditional Knife "Tales & Vignettes")

Hi guys, I’m new to the traditional knife world but after lurking and posting around here the past couple of days I think I’m going to like it here.

Really just wanted to say Hi and make my lurking self known, so I hope the rest of you fine folk have and excellent week end!

Welcome, Blade_Crazy.

It's a pleasure to have you here. Hope you enjoy our little neck of the woods.
 
It's 6:20pm here in Australia and I'm heading to bed to get up at 1:00am to fly to Sydney for my interview at the US consulate to get my immigrant visa...the rest of my life is riding on a 30 minute interview!!! would appreciate whatever you got my way for a little luck...needless to say my wife has been a nervous wreck all week, even though its a straight forward interview.

Be back on in about a day, take it easy folks. :)

Best of luck with it Robert. I have had more than my fair share of interviews at the local US Embassy and I know it can be nerve wracking. I am sure that it will all go well.
Let us know how you go.

Based on your posts you seem like a very level-headed, intelligent guy who the U.S. would be lucky to have as a citizen. Good luck (though you probably won't need it) at the interview.
 
Hey folks, just jumped on with my phone which it really dislikes (bf dont load right on my mobile) to thank you all for the luck and youre now looking at a new American immigrant...they praised how precise and organized I was, I went in on my ultimate A game!

Anyhoos stuck in an airport till to so thanks again, means a heck of a lot!

Great news Robert! From your posts it seems like it has been a long process to get to this point. I'm glad to hear everything is getting worked out.

Since August 2010 I've been apart from my wife...its really sucked :p but thats all over now and its time to move on to bigger and better things, all we've gone through kinda seems insignificant now. Thanks guys!!! :D now to sleep a few hours and resign from my job.

PS. I will finally get to enjoy and use the knives a couple forum members sent me!!! I promise to give them a good workout over the next 40 years or so.
