Guys and Gals the generosity in the Traditional forum is LEGENDARY:thumbup:

Like the title says, "Just Outta the Blue" I receive a PM from Singin50, aka Perry. He knows my love of Ebony and offers me this very RARE and special Spear/Pen TC "PPP" Ebony Barlow from 2012:o

Whats my reaction? Uh, WHAT...seriously Perry? That's a keeper my friend and you want to gift it to me??? Whaaaa, Why me??? Stunned is an UNDERSTATEMENT:eek:

Folks, Perry is dead serious...gets my address and sure enough this BEAUTY arrives in yesterdays mail-so I think) there's a story there I shared with Perry as it actually wasn't in my mailbox, it was on the counter of my Shop:eek: Now rest easy as my Step Brother is my Rural Mail Carrier---it really was in good hands:D

Perry tells me, he feels I'd enjoy this rarity, this gem of a Barlow maybe a bit more than he would:D (not that Perry didn't enjoy it) So enough of my ramble, here's what need be said THANK YOU PERRY

PLEASE excuse the poor indoor pictures (better pictures in the future) as much needed rain has been failing all day long---actually for the last couple of days and for the remainder of the week:thumbup:

This one will be carried, but VERY CAREFULLY:cool:

Behold!!!

Wow, that is a fantastic piece. Ebony, check, spear point, check, lomg pull, check, secondary pen blade, check...PPP? Icing on the cake.

Great to hear.
 
Good for you, Perry. With all of the inflation on the second market that those TCs go through it's refreshing to hear about somebody finding one a new home without trying to capitalize on the market. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
 
Mighty fine gift!! How much better can it get - not much!!!
Nice going, Perry!!
You are a lucky man, Paul, as are we all to know Perry!!
 
Thanks for the kind words, Charlie and everyone! I just felt that Paul is one of those guys that deserved something unexpected this week. That and I knew he loved him some ebony!:D

Perry
 
Out of the Blue and Into the Black!

Sounds like a fine turn all round, congratulation gents!
 
I just love the camaraderie and generosity of forum members. Well done Perry, and congratulations on such a stunning ebony PPP Paul!!!
 
Paul, I can only imagine your state of being awe struck. You are a very deserving and respected member here. Perry is the man for sure! He is one example of why this place is the best. Way to go Perry.:thumbup:
 
Great looking knife. And it makes me smile to know that good people do good things "because they can".
 
Wow - just plain awesome (the whole scenario).

That beauty is making think about going head first into traditional folders....
 
Bob, everytime I see that avatar of yours it makes me smile, thinkin that kid's got his favorite knife in his pocket and know one knows it! Lol
