Gary Graley great seller

Thanks Larry, it's a two way street in transactions and it's worked flawlessly between us.

Gary Garley sounds like he has bad breath. 🤣

But Gary W. Graley, though I have not yet had the pleasure to transact with him, is certainly preceded by his good reputation and the shiny footprints he leaves.
 
I've been called worse ;) and it's shiny footprint...singular as in part of my makers mark I put on the back of my sheaths;

I appreciate the kind words guys, at some point he might edit the title of this thread but if not that's ok too

I didn’t even know you had a footprint mark! I meant it in the Sal Glesser way…
 
Picked up a knife from this upstanding gentleman and was extremely pleased by the entire experience, now I need to find a leather product to source from him!
 
Thanks guys, the footprint thing was something I came up with many years ago, it's intent is to remind the person that goes to put the sheath on his belt or in his pocket, to always start out on his/her Right footing in all that they do that day.
Quirky I know, but something that I think we should all strive to do in our lives.

I had one fellow email me after he got his sheath about the footprint, I told him that I was sorry, that while working on his sheath, it fell to the floor and I accidentally stepped on it...;)

edited to add my favourite story about my markings, one time a customer asked to call me when his package arrived back to him, it was a horizontal Sebenza sheath. So I said, sure I guess, we've never talked on the phone before but for some reason he felt the need. The day came when he received his package and he called me up, he had a friend there with him, must have been a slow news day there. And after some ooohhing and aaaahhing his friend was looking the sheath over and I heard him say, 'wow, $5 for the sheath?! and the owner said NO you idiot, that isn't the price, it's the month and year 5-00 May of 2000 ;) why would he stamp the price into the leather???
I'll never forget that call or the month and year I made that sheath :)
