    - even though we haven't yet dealt, I admire his honesty.
    Tamishigiri - This guy is a true Warrior. We have not yet made any knife deals, but I consider him a serious knife and tactics resource AND a friend.
I know there are more, but I can't remember your posting handles... I just wanted to let everyone I've bought from, sold to, and traded with, know that I have really enjoyed our transactions. I know 2000 will be just as much fun, if not MORE! Thanks everyone!

My brain is slowly boiling as I sit and try not to leave anyone out....if I've left you out it was by mistake and an oversight because I've not had a bad time with anyone on the Forums, like family! Those above are folks that I've dealt directly with and can vouch for them if need be....there are a few that I've dealt with but don't know their Forum name so they don't appear on the list.

Thanks guys!
