Hello everybody just wanted to drop a note about my brother Scott of Scott Cook Knives. My name is Brad and Im Scotts younger but BIGGER brother, I had the pleasure and opportunity to meet some of you this past summer at the Blade Show. If you will let me take a moment of your time I would like to share a little story about my brother and I. Scott and I grew up in Western Washington with parents that shared their love for the outdoors and the importance of striving to be the best you can be.
Competitiveness some how became part of our family makeup???(Dad was a wrestling coach for 30+ years and Mom played and still plays competative tennis Im not sure where the competitiveness came from?!?)
And what better opponent to have in a competitive match then your own brother. Scott and I are pretty competitive between the two us; no matter what it might be one of us needs to be #1 and the other #2. When we wrestled against each other at a very young age I could hold my own ..then I have to admit he started to kick my tail. Scott went on to become an All-American Wrestler at Utah State University so I dont feel so bad by getting beat by an All-American. Yet I think thats where the tail kicking stopped, I know for a fact that I have caught a BIGGER fish then Scott, and I know that I have shot more game birds then Scott. (I have photos to back all this up!! Im sure if you ask Scott he would dispute this claim.) I do have to concede that Scott can put a point and an edge on knives sharper than I can put on a pencil. And again I do concede this point to my brother ..yet he felt in the sprit of competition that he should really make me understand WHO is #1 and WHO is #2. If you look at the photos that I have attached you will see what brother gave to me for Christmas this year!! The part you cant see is that he made sure that I knew WHOM #2 is ~ Im fortunate to have the Lochsa that has the #2 engraved on the back. The part that Im pretty sure he doesnt know is how much this beautiful knife means to me, Scott, I now how much blood, sweat, and time goes into each of these works of beauty and I thank you with all my heart. Nobody is prouder then I to pull out my Lochsa and show inquiring people the beautiful work that MY BROTHER does!!
PS. If you are wondering where #1 went, lets just say I was sitting next to my Father at Christmas when he opened a Lochsa Bag .
PPS. Did anybody notice the new pin?!?!?
