Hey corkies.
What has got into me? The other day I sold a knife because I heard about a couple of little boys who were not going to have a xmas this year (Read about it hereSoooo anyway I was really blessed to be able to walk in to this Moms office at the milfs school and give her a Gift Card to Wally World so that her kiddos would have a pile of presents under the tree. I wont bore you with the details but she was grateful to tears...and her faith in humanity was somewhat restored. :thumbup:
So I thinks to myself that I have done my good deed for the year and now I can go back to clubbing baby seals, stealing bingo money from grandmas, Mailing loafers to people on my pirate list, sharpening my peg leg, and just being the ususal old obnoxious PITA RTDTB that you have come to know and love.
But The milf brings home another story of a young man who attends her school who has shall we say the worst home situation I have ever heard of. He lives with his grandparents now on court order but Granny is on a fixed income and she is also dirt poor. Thus this Autistic boy who already has two strikes against him comes to school in dirty, worn, out of style, and three sizes too small clothing. He of course is very aware that he is being singled out by girls and boys alike as an object of scorn because of his clothing. ( remember what it was like in middle school???) So anyway, This kid does not even have a winter coat and now up here in Michigan it has officially turned to winter. So again RTDTB and the Milf to the Rescue...So I would like to sell this knife to help this young man out. My wife and I have a autistic son and we always sacrificed to make sure that our son always wore fashionable in style cloths so that he would fit in...and didnt look like the "Special needs Kid" so here is the deal....
Parting with one of my best knives...
Tim Britton Engraved Baby Bullet Lockback
OAL 6" Closed 3 3/8"
Blade is 2 3/4"
Beautiful matched Sambar stag scales
BG-42 Blade
Sterling silver bolster engraved on both sides and end with 24 Carat Gold Filagree by Jim Small
Small leather pocket sheath with clip which is a production sheath but fits the knife perfect.
Knife is new and in mint condition
I paid $550 for this Gem and Would like to sell for $500 including shipping and PP fee. This will allow my wife and I to buy clothes for the boy and give his granny a gift card so that six months from now when spring hits he can get some fashionable spring clothes.
obviously no trades and thanks for looking see pics..
