I'll miss the knife show, but I'll be in Boston April 18-19-20-21. I'm planning on meeting Larry, he lives a half hour north. I have to be back in Michigan for the 23rd to attend my own club's big show in Detroit area on the 23rd.
Now... I need to take a knife with me. No, I don't feel a need for a defensive piece, as everyone in that very liberal-baseball loving city will certainly love me. But what have I read? A blade only an inch and a half in length? Besides, I have to travel through Canada to get there.
Hmm... My favorite pearl handled toothpick (Gen Patton said only pimps carried pearl handled pistols, but Jerry Fisk states that a gentleman should carry a MOP scaled pocket knife) is out, blade too long. And that Walther Allied Forces with the cool wood handle insert is probably a little much and although I look forward to exploring the Boston Subway system, I don't wanna see the inside of the local pokey. My Gerber Yari in the custom leather, crossdraw, butt-forward sheath is obviously out As is the Becker BK9 that rides in the back of my truck. A nice utilitarian, harmless Swiss Army knife? Naw... I want somthing to put Boston firmly in it's place. I'll think on this. One possibility is the neat little Case toothpick I got from Bill (our El Lobo).
Anyway, I'll be staying in Woburn, and do very, very much look forward to meeting a couple of you guys!
Phil
ps... As per the naked broad in the photos that Bill is positive he saw: Bill, I beleive you! I just didn't see it. Maybe I don't live right.
