Show Time

OH, thank you.
Shack, I can't believe the caliber of people that like coming out to shows and we get to run into them. DM
 
Mak, thank you for your support.
mjb, your welcome. We try to hit the high spots and give you part of our day.
Plus, we hope to encourage other Buck Collectors to put together a display and bring it to their local show. Even just for one time is a lot of fun. DM

Here with me is W. Clark Randall. His Father was Bo Randall's brother. He brought a Empress Trio set by to ask me about. He has hunted on E. Hogg Ranch in Florida with Bo his Uncle. He told me about all sorts of adventures he had with Bo. A real treat for me to listen to this guy. DM

You're a lucky man to able to meet Bo Randall's nephew.I would have talked his ear off because I have so many questions that I would have asked.I like Randall made knives and have a small collection of about 25 knives.

I've talked to Gary Randall,Bo's son and Gary's son as well but it's was always been on the phone.

Buck certainly has "good will ambassadors" in you and your wife.Keep up the good work and thanks for the updates and pictures.

Right again jbm. We have sign posts and you seem to pick up on them. It's a very ole time name and spelling. We were named after our Grandfathers, Grandmothers and Great Grandmother and you know more tradition goes with this package and we both took to it. Thanks, DM
 
JAG, this means a lot coming from you. Thank you & best wishes. DM

Sporting, yes, I think I'm soo lucky and thankful to have experienced so much good in life. I was sort of pressed for time and needed to sharpen some knives that folks had dropped off. So, Clark just hung with me and my wife and talked about Bo for a good spell with us. His stories made me stop and stare at him, forgetting, what I was doing. He never raised his voice, just talked with a deep South accent. Giving one story after another. Made us feel like we were old friends. I began to think,-- I'm nobody. Why is he talking to me like this? He commented on her work then turned and slowly wondered on down the aisle, taking in the show. I sat there, Staring at him walking away until he was out of sight, --- thinking about what had just happened. I wanted to go run him down and listen to some more... A Real moment had just occurred with me. DM
 
Speaking of the Randall knives, I bought some Ruana knives at their facility in Bonner MT. I was late picking them up so Rudy Ruana's son in law and daughter took the knives home where I was invited in to their home. They told me they were on a road trip years ago and went by Randalls facility. When they entered they were treated like royalty from the Randall people. Neat story and I am 100 percent positive they would be treated the same at the Buck factory. 3 manufacturers all with similar history.
 
I can vouch for this. ^ In 2008 Mrs. Buck didn't know us from Adam. But when we arrived at their home she gave us a grand tour. Like we were old friends or something and
we weren't anybody. It was just Leesa and I as our kids were walking in the yard. Still, I couldn't believe the hospitality. DM
