Good Evening.
It is I, etc.
OK, the sun's coming up and that means if I don't slide into my thing I sleep in I ain't gonna be feeling well later on, so I have to be a little brief...
The man in the brown truck came by today and honked at me and Missus G as we were standing in our driveway.
"MY HOSSOM EAR FIGHTER IS HERE!! MY HOSSOM EAR FIGHTER IS HERE!!", I shouted into my wife's face.
She told me to calm down and go put on some pants. She then signed for the package and I tore it open with some claws and fangs I had leftover from Arbor Day.
Inside was the soon-to-be famous Jerry Hossum/Me collaboration, The Millennniumiumium Ear Fighter!!
LOOK!
Now then, like I said, it's pretty early, so I didn't have a chance to make the intricate modifications to the knife just yet, vis-a-vis the "Ear" part, but here's a LINK to the somewhat lacking photos I just took of it. I wish the photos came close to showing how absolutely cool-looking this blade is!!
Alas, my $900 digital camera that I bought 5 years ago is suffering from a terminal case of out-datedness. Still, you oughta be able to get an idea.
The sheath's made by Survival Sheath Systems, but I forgot to add that link to the page. I spoke with Robert for about an hour today/yesterday and he's making me a Concealex Sheath for my Leatherman Wave... He's a real nice guy... heck, anyone who manages to keep talking to me for more than 3 minutes is practically deserving of Sainthood... but I drift....
Holding the Ear-Fighter in my paw/claw/tentacle I felt a real desire to go and stab something! I mean, like really STAB something! (Note the "thing" part of that word... I ain't violent) The balance is perfect, but the real kicker is how LIGHT it is! It reminds me of the first time I picked up one of those Mission Knives Titanium knives they make outta titanium... knives...The MPK, I think?
Well, The Ear Fighter is made outta 154CM, so it's not titanium, but it's a metal. (Sorry for getting all technical on ya, but my vast knowledge of metalurgicalitude tends to take over at times)
I spoke to Jerry today/yesterday/a couple of weeks from now, and informed him that his selling price is too low. (Of course, I waited until AFTER we struck a deal to tell him this!)
Anyhow, this is one of those blades that "spoke" to me as soon as I saw it at the Vegas Custom Knife Show. It's exactly the kind of knife that floats my boat, trips my trigger, inflates my love doll, etc.!
I can't say enough good things about this blade... the only complaint that I have is that Jerry named it "The Millimmuiumin" which always screws me up cuz I can't spell it.
OK, I said I was gonna be brief, and I pretty much lied.. but I had to share it with the folks here cuz basically, I have no friends in real life; people avoid me due to that thing on my neck that jiggles when I giggle and blinks whenever I sneeze; and 3, I like the folks here!
Hopefully I'll be able to make the modification to the Ear attachment sometime tomorrow/today/last week and I'll pose and put the pics on that page when that happens/happened.
Now if you'll forgive me, the sun's shining and my shins are starting to smoke....
Off to goodnightdom,
I remain,
VG
Thrilled Bastid
PS - Someone lemme know if it's "Gerry" with a "J" or "Jerry" with a "G", ok? It took me a month to remember that his name ain't spelled "HOSSUM" and his first name's spelling is too much of a challenge for me at this time.
Thanky
