WTT- I have a stacked collection of CPK knives and am looking to trade one or some of them for old school SET (Sargent edge tools) knives. Not sure this is the right place to be looking for SET’s but figured it Couldent hurt to ask.
Thanks CPK fam!

It's a poor musician who blames his instrument, and I honestly screwed this up myself, but it was the last blade and it was the last edge and my belt was starting to wobble a little, and as I was approaching the plunge the belt made a little wobble and it made the sound of doom and I even got a little puff of grit and I knew what I had done. Man, I was so pissed off. We were done. And then we weren't.

I just finished the replacement, it is flawless.

These are so difficult. At least it wasn't a satin. We have knives that have eight man hours in them on some of these technical pieces.

We are not in the business of making perfect knives and collector art pieces, but some of these have turned out pretty nice. And I will be happy to never see them again.

Back when we were a smaller outfit I could do a run of 50 or 100 and not get burned out, but this was 800 utility fighters and I think I don't want to see them again anytime soon.

We have a special customer contemplating a pattern for delivery in 2024. The Shiv is on the table...

Rangers won a great game last night forcing game 7...can they beat the 'Canes in Raleigh tomorrow night?

Hope so...but at the very least they have acquitted themselves well, and their performance bodes well for the future...given that they are the youngest team in the playoffs.


Small steps and apparent progress on the dog front...so, we're much more thankful for that. Time will tell.

So. Jo and I have been married for 23 years today. We're 46 years old, so there's that.

Congrats to you both!!! Here's wishing for many more happy years.

I'll have been married 35 years this year, and will turn 70. So there's that.



(I don't know if I should be depressed or happy that I, (and my marriage), have lasted this long. It seems impossible to fathom.)
