After seeing all the marvellous Bloodbathaganza pics in recent threads I needed to do this......

Went to the woods and (ab)used my uchogfsh some more....

What's the story:

On the 24th of july our beloved Amy-0 send out an email which said I scored my #1 choice (3E - HOGFSH with Ramhorn) on the Bloodbathaganzaa together with 1A (HOGwarden). I was very excited as this was my first ganzaa and I scored my fav knife to boot. Then the dreadfull waiting begun....

Both knives shipped on july 27th, so far so good. I know a parcel can take between 3 days to 6 weeks to arrive. After six weeks the USPS track and trace info still said "international dispatch". I called Dutch customs and they said both knives never arrived in the Netherlands where I live. I asked Amy to start an inquiry. The outcome is that the package is at France customs where it is lying still as we speak. USPS is trying to get a hold of the parcel but I don't know if they'll succeed....

My patience is really put to the test on this one, so I had to go chop some treebranches today to unwind from this knifedistress. I very much hope all turns out good.

In the meantime, here are some chopping pics (a few taken by my 4y old daughter)...

Nice pics! And best of luck with the customs issues, they try to be the most difficult to deal with. I think there's a competition to see which one can be the harshest. :(

That sheath looks familiar. :)
 
Hopefully... your wait wont be much longer.

Thanks for another set of great pics.

 
great pics man, and good luck resolving the ganza SH issues (it's a very sweet knife and will be well worth the wait if it can all work out...)
 
Didn't you know? Customs always get stuck in Customs. ;)

Hope it works out. I've got a missing USPS parcel right now that is supposed to be in APO hands. Grrrrr.
 
Man I hope you get your knife. A little waiting makes the gettin sweeter but six weeks is too brutal. Hope you get your stuff soon
 
I hope you get it from the French pretty soon...they sure don't have a need for a combat knife. Ahh, I don't need to start on them, sorry.

Thanks for the great pics, your 4 year old did a good job of framing!
 
Don't you just love customs? I just hope they haven't stolen your knives. That would suck.
 
Thanks for the great pics. I hope your new knives arrive soon. :thumbup:
 
Thanks guys !!!!

When the knives get home I promise to post pics :thumbup::thumbup:
