As
black mamba
has hinted, the stag World's Fair knife is not actually going to him. Thanks to the generosity of
315
, I had a knife that I suspected I could tempt him with (I'll let Jeff share that knife if he chooses, when it gets to him). And that meant that I could take the opportunity to give the World's Fair knife to someone who actually attended that event!

attended the fair as a boy, and had entered in the original

GAW where I won the popcorn stag knife. I thought it would be a little extra meaningful to get that knife into Jody's hands, and Jeff agreed to accept an alternate knife to make that happen.
And I am very happy with how this all turned out.
Unfortunately, we had a bit of a snowpocalypse here in the Willamette Valley, and it will probably be a few days before I can get the knives mailed off. But I have everyone's addresses, and the knives will be sent off as soon as possible.
