My uncle Billy Bob told me, "Go with a big cutter, or don't even think about going home again."
That is a powerful knife, though. I am tempted to buy a few iterations of it, just a dang useful platform... I really would love to get a K390 Wharnie blade in a SAK.



Nothing "sappy" or "sentimental" about your post. To anyone who reads it, it is right from the heart. Congratulations!Today I’m celebrating marriage to the same woman for the last 25 years. She’s always been a little indifferent to my knife addiction. She’s never gone out to research a knife on her own to give me as a gift - and that’s not meant as a slight to her. It’s just that I usually have solid leads for her to follow when knife gift giving is concerned. I’m sure some of you get it. Well, that changed today, so please indulge my lengthy post.
Today she gifted me this William Henry knife called “Elegance” carved silver for our silver anniversary. This year happens to be William Henry’s 25th year in production. This particular knife is number 10 out of 25. She chose 10 because October is the month of our engagement. The knife has blue topaz which symbolizes strength, love, affection, truth and forgiveness. It also has sapphires that symbolize love, sincerity, faithfulness and commitment. This knife is packed full of symbolism. Today my cup is full. Sharing with this group, cause I think some of you would “get it”. I don’t really have other knife nuts in my life, so you all are my outlet. Apologies for the sappy sentimental post, but I can’t resist sharing with others that share the passion.

Judging by your pics, I think you may have went a little overboard with the backhoe...Been bustin’ my ass on this backyard project for a little over a week now. Not gonna lie…..it wasn’t easy. Finally broke down and rented a backhoe.
Yeah, I know……wouldn’t have been necessary if I owned a large Sebenza.
Anyway, thinkin’ it came out pretty good.
I’ll see if I can get some pics from different angles this week.
