Josiah,

I sent $70 via PayPal a few minutes ago. I added $5 to help with postage. Good luck at basic, don't take any knives with you! ;)

Many thanks!

Josiah,

I got my Small Utility # 1 & am completely impressed. I want another as my wife is casting her beautiful eyes on it. I am serious about the second; PM or email if there is any hope for me.

Review for BF folks, w/intro.;
For 15 years I carried a United Cutlery Gil Hibben small "thrower" as a fishing knife. All stainless, small, handy always. Picture attached. I loved this knife. Got a new kayak in December & was fishing & my knife left me. After ALL these YEARS, how could it? My fault of course. Since then I have carried others but none have been IT.

I saw J-siah, KnifeMaker’s post, http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=630066
for 1. Small utility. It looked nice so I got it.

Wow, this is gonna be my new fishing companion for years to come (unless my Beloved Wife casts her eyes towards me again, how could I say NO). I will no longer belt carry in this new kayak (a sit on top Tarpon 160i) but maybe use an ankle rig as I do for diving. No swimming alone allowed for this knife.

The United Cutlery was inexpensive so I put an edge on the top & always felt that it would not hurt to lose a cheap knife. Wrong. We had been so many places together, for so long. My wife understands & has given me genuine sympathy for my loss. She does think the new Small Utility is a beauty.

I am tempted to try to put an edge on the top 1 1/2 inches; this can be very handy in fishing, but I fear messing it up somehow. If Josiah were not heading for basic training, I would ask him to do it for me.

Josiah, Well done! Be safe & enjoy the Navy. I hope you get sea time & enjoy it. The ocean is amazing in a way only mariners get to see.

BF fellow members; If this young man has any knives left you will be well served to get one before he becomes a Captain & is to busy to make more.
I only hope I can get one more before you BF folks do!

Sincerely,
Fred aka Maineboatman
