Check post 1048We all get the same number from last year, right?
Completely kidding that would be a huge pain.
Speaking of numbers, are they engraved on the bolster again? Have we seen a picture of that yet?
I still would have preferred satin blades, but, yes, the bone is nicer IMO than the acrylics.I mean honestly, i still think the BF original is the best looking one of the bunch to be sure
I'm just putting this out here early:
No matter what number I get, I'm keeping it - not open to trades. Even if it's one of those weird numbers like 314, 227, 143, 116 - any of them!
This is fate you're messing with here, people! You know what happens when you start messing with fate? I don't know either but I'm guessing it's bad!
.....OK I'll admit to being distracted by the video of all the tubesCheck post 1048

From a now long-forgotten thread, I believe mine is already named 'Bernard's Fool Cutter', or 'Canya Morcova Autrist' in the language of the elves, in honor of the Rolex-adorned delivery turtle that should be bringing it forthwith.Absolutely! Also, your knife is named 'Bernard's Fool Cutter' for when Bernard needs to cut a fool.
Well it looks like Spark and Bill have got it worked out. Keep all the d…heads out of the process and offer a beautiful knife. Amen.I supported the traditional forum knife for numerous years whether it was great or a dog (I didn't care), In for 1 after the barlow fiasco, interested to see how this and future years go.
Two years ago? (Ancient history) Bunny knife went much better, this year appears to have improved from that, not sure what the concerns are.In for 1 after the barlow fiasco, interested to see how this and future years go.
