I got a mad bomber hat! Don't mess with me, I'll throw a bomb at you! :D
That'll keep you warm for sure.

But you gotta post pics! I'm sure the lads won't Photochop you...at least not too much...:D
 
In my Christmas stocking I found some sticks (elm I think) and some lumps of coal (bituminous I think).
 
My wife kicked some major ass this Christmas! I got a video iPod, a nice Nikon digi cam with a printer and a Mini Commander :D
 
new buck nxt (2nd ed. ) with a scary sharp blade (If I try to shave with it it will likely take skin as well as hair):eek:

A remington watch with a digital compass feature :cool:

and a nice hoodie :thumbup:
 
mostly a lot of warm clothes. Everyone is worried I'm gonna freeze my ass of in europe on tour in feb, a Ruths Chris steakhouse gift certificate from the gf, an IOU for a LineX spray in bed liner from the parents, and a few knives and a new Sensa pen for myself :)
 
Her goes. The wife got me a wilderness belt and a goretex parka. The daughter got me some geans and shirts. My best friend (on his way home from Iraq today) got me a omega seamaster watch and a benchmade afo auto.
My other buddy got me a new pickup for my electric guitar and a dmt sharpening stone. I really racked up this year! Oh almost forgot a nib MT lcc is on the way , from my wife, just didn't arrive yet. I really scored this year! Steve
 
I went more for practical gifts this year. My parents got my a ladder, which is what I asked for. The ceilings in my house are around 12 feet, and my being 5'6" makes changing lightbulbs a bit tricky. So I'm happy about that, and have no more burned out lightbulbs (along with high ceilings I have at last count 29 light bulbs in my house).

They also gave me some money which I tried to refuse. But they said "no, take this and don't save it. Don't waste it, but this is for you." I haven't decided what to do with that yet. Maybe a BM710, or a D2 Grip and S30V 110 from Cabellas.
 
I got a Luxeon III UW0K LED that I put in my Surefire KL4 with a Wizard 2 converter board running at 937mA. I got a nice bright white thrower now. :)
 
I got a nice new cell phone with case and all the related bits, (excellent!) and 3 POS knives.:rolleyes:

My family knows I am a knife collector, and insist on buying me junk knives made in Pakistan or some where similar, "Oh. it was an absolute bargain! Only $3.95!", thereby forcing me to exclaim how pleased I am with their exquisite taste and thoughtfulness.

Maybe I can trade them for lumps of coal.

I rented a flat with high celings once, I'm 6ft but it made no difference. Being a rented flat I didnt have a ladder, theres a photo of me somewhere stood on a coffee table on the yellow pages in a pair of my girlfriends platform shoes trying to reach the light bulb!
 
Camo Zippo, Dual-fuel 2 burner Coleman stove, Echo backback leaf-blower, clothes.

I must have been pretty good this year.
 
got a shirt and cast iron dutch oven from mom, I got me and the wife two pairs each of some real nice polar fleece footy pajamas.
 
mosin nagant PU sniper rifle, mossburg 590 12gauge pump with dual pistol grips with m16 bayo lug, and another k31.

i also ordered 2 more service grade garands from CMP for my self and my newest tommy gun gets here next week. there alittle late but still worth it.

Hey KaBar, got enough guns to start WWII again yet? Nice lookin stuff! (watch the fingers on the triggers though =D)
 
ive got most every thing ive ever wanted so im going to slow down on buying so many guns.

im getting bit by the military truck bug right now. im going to buy myself a new pickup truck as soon as i can find one im satified with. there alittle hard to find around here but fairly cheap, i think there a good buy.

New yo-yo, I had been wanting one of these for a long time, my daughter found someone who could bring it from the USA, cool...

My wife bought me a Duncan Proyo with a wooden axle (?). They are making them with 'ball bearings' now, (like yours?) things sure have changed since I was a kid.
 
Ball bearing axle means instead of the string directly tied over the axle, its wrapped around a little ball bearing that rides on a steel axle for longer sleepers
