Gosh golly, didn't know the obnoxious run-on sentence method you were employing was intentional and meant to be humorous.My sincerest apologies,sir.
 
Aww...that's okay (pats little trevitrace on the head)...you don't know better or choose not to.Perhaps you would have understood me better if I turned my hat to the side and spoke it in Ebonics.Or convince you to buy a celebrity's knife because YOLO as the expression goes and how the titanium is such BLING.Yeah that beautiful celebrity followers knife direct from Hollywood comes in a box that's in a beautiful shade of red and yellow wrapped in a silk cloth that's white and blue.Don't get upset though because hey I'm 'JK LOL'.

Well, you're right about one thing at least!

James Spander

It's not news that one of Tony Bose's English Teardrop Jacks was used by James Spader in the movie Lincoln. Although it was a very small part of the movie and was very hard to see that it was one of Tony's knives, it was definitely one of Tony's knives because I know the back story.

James became very interested in Tony's knives after a chance meeting with a friend of Tonys at a knife show in New York several years ago and subsequently struck up a friendship with Tony. When the Lincoln movie came up and James was developing his character, he suggested maybe he would be able to fit a knife into one of the scenes he would be doing. James asked Tony if he could make a period relevant knife that he could use in the movie and it was the English Teardrop Jack. After it was made and sent to James, it was OK'd by the appropriate props people and used in the movie. James carrys and uses that knife and other T.Bose knives regularly.

Here's an image I shot of James and Tony whittling on the back porch in Wilfred a number of years back.

Actually mtangent I'm a pretty easy going guy who likes a deep discussion...I just don't view society as great as others do through the increase of urbanization and declination of culture.There's far better cuts of people who weren't celebrities to draw inspiration from rather than the entertainment media.People become lemmings because they are very co-dependent on others views to guide them ranging from grammar to political views.They can't pick out clothing or a cell phone for themselves unless it's 'what's in'.I could go on and on but the point is a good portion of people today walk with the masses and aren't capable of thinking independently as an individual.So people cancel out what's really important and culturally valuble and worry about celebrity approval or their lives more than their own.They could be broke as heck but as long as they got the new shoes or matching smartphone or leftist organization donated to as their favorite celebrity icon.. the world is golden.

Don't know if he counts as a famous celebrity (or a celebrity at all,) but Gabe Newell --the head of Valve/Steam is a giant knife nut. To the point that there's an entire wall of art in the corporate headquarters created from pictures of his custom knife collection, and visitors to his actual office have to be warned in advance that there will be knives everywhere. I saw a video of a tour of Valve's HQ including shots of his office, there were several dozen knife boxes left on his desk, on the floor next to his desk, etc. Everything from Chris Reeve production stuff to full customs.
 
Yes, it was a lighthearted comment, not an insult. Like you, I don't care much for entertainment celebrity culture, but I doubt any industry would be better. Nobody is good at everything. However, I will not complain over young women twerking.
 
Apparently I'm an internet celebrity.
 
Sadly, I cannot twerk...although it would almost be worth learning how just to annoy some people. ;)

WikiHow makes it sound easy!

1) Stand with your legs parallel and separate.
2) Put your hands on the ground.
3) Pop your booty!

Now let's start a thread: "What knife were you twerking with today?":D

Ummm buddy, SRV has unfortunately been gone for quite a while.

I am lacking in the booty department, and would likely have a back spasm while attempting it.
But I could probably do a mean "sizzling bacon." :)
