As some of you know, at the start of our BF knife Odyssey, I was hinting that Our Forum knife should be made with smooth White Bone!! Well the Hemlock that won out turned out great, and I wouldn't change it for a minute!! But Bill called me and told me they made too many parts for our order of 500 knives, and do I want him to make up a few more?? Duh!!! Is a Bear Catholic?? Does the Pope . . . . . (never mind)!!
Now Bill said he had no more Hemlock Sawcut, so I said, How about a few Smooth White Bone??
Voila' . . . . . .White 1.jpgWhite 2.jpg
This knife can be yours!! If you are a loyal and long term (very long term) member and contributor of the Traditional Forum!! And we have interacted here in the past!! And you must promise to keep this knife and use it for a while!!
You know who you are!! I ask that only those who qualify, enter, and please let's not have a gabfest!!
It's not a Ghost, it's a real Barlow, but I thought Being a "ghostly white" . . . . . . . . .yada, yada, yada!! Ha Ha, a joke to kick things off!!
Your only creative part is to tell us a Knife Joke!! Dad-level Jokes, and Groaners are OK!! 🤣
I will close this GA after Christmas sometime; let's see how it goes!!
 
I will just comment on that beautiful knife that would look real good between a couple of White Bone Lambfoot , but in all my years I have never heard a knife joke to tell you in order to enter . I will not miss it all . I have a couple of others that I can CE & CF . Merry Christmas Charlie . Thanks for this great GA .

Waynorth, that is a prize to really knock Santa's socks off!!

I am most definitely in for this one!!

terrible joke time:

After a an attempted mugging a few years ago, I decided to start carying a knife every where I go......




My Muggings since then have been much more successful!!

The sight of that beautiful knife whets my appetite, but doesn't sharpen my wit. I'll cut to the chase and get to the point, I can't think of a worthy knife pun. Like using a short knife on a tall peanut butter jar, I can't get to the bottom of it. Narwal I do?

Edited to add: I posted the Narwhal Knife for fun, to hearken back to early forum knife discussions. If I were to win (if I have a ghost of a chance) I'm not promising to do any scrimshaw on it. I mean, I might, but don't know if I have the courage.

I'm not in Charlie because as you know, I'd just end up giving it away to someone not fortunate enough to get one.

Oh, here's a knife joke I just made up for the fun of it.

Why are Friction Folders a favorite of cowards?
Because Friction Folders are spineless.:rolleyes:
 
Charlie this is more than awesome! Don’t know if I have the forum chops but if I do, I’m in! Oh yeah, have a safe and healthy holiday season!

Vouching for you may cut both ways (bad pun about the contest chances)...

But I can certainly say I've seen you help fellow members out arround here, in a very friendly porch like manner!!

(I'm certainly carrying that 2ab daily that you passed on with zero mark up....if that is not a friendly neighborly favor.....than what is?? Thanks again....and I don't believe I am the only person your helped out!!).

WOW, that is a beauty!! I would like in. Not sure if this qualifies as a joke or not. It is all I have for now, I will try to come up with a joke. An anecdote from my past along the lines of Bigfattyt's joke:

When I was younger i was too lazy to tie my shoes, I would just slip on my runners with the laces dangling. But, I always carried a knife. On rare occasions I would have to go to a big city for work. When I headed to the seedy side of town, which I used to like to do in my youth, I would leave my knife in the hotel room and tie my shoes. I believed it would be more prudent to try to outrun trouble than to be sliced and diced by my own knife.

Nice idea but a blatant call for dad jokes? Do you know what you are in for??? Lol

Ok
“How do you kill a Circus “
“Go for the Juggler…”
Ba da da dum ;)

Thanks sir

(Edited to say I don’t condone harming any juggler)
 
That is a very special knife, Charlie.
As much as I'd like to have it, I believe it should go to a very special member here.
There are many deserving candidates on the Porch, some float right to the top of the list, but I'm thinking of one that carries the Porch Torch proudly.
If I am deserving, and if my entry is chosen, I would like to enter on behalf of Jack Black Jack Black He offers this forum so much and I know he was hurt by the way some people abused the true meaning of the Forum Knife. I think this would put a smile on his face and remind him what the Porch is really about... which I'm sure he hasn't forgotten.

 
Truth be told, I Googled knife jokes....... ;)

"I made a clock. The big hand is a butcher's knife, the small hand is a paring knife, and the clock face is a sharpening stone.

There's never a dull moment." :D

Hardly worthy a such a knife. So I will nominate JohnDF JohnDF since he is such a major part of the Porch & more than worthy (even though he himself entered for someone else).
My wife says all my jokes are dull. I will fold since I'm apparently not that sharp.
