Good to see our favorite knives getting a little air time in the current issue of Blade Mag.

One they they left out was emphasis on how much guys like Tony and Bill Ruple have helped out so many other makers. I feel that their efforts and willingness to share have brought slipjoints back into the lime light over the last few years. Such a good thing to see so many accomplished makers deciding to give it a go and enjoying the journey.

It was not that long ago when I could go to Blade and nab all the sipjoints that I wanted (or could afford) without much competition. I am glad those days are over!
 
Nice to see them getting a little much deserved attention....
Almost guaranteed to bring some more folks over to the good side of the fence, once they get a little taste of the eye candy :D

Now if you would just lose the lamp, so the rest of us have a chance at the Bose drawing, or take the horseshoe out of the %&*. :D
