Hi guys & gals!

Some days ago I realised that Thom (scruffuk) will sell his #68 WO at the Exchange Forum. I wrote him, that I´m very interessted in the knife. And finally asked for the price of course. He told me very fast, that it´s ok ... WOW - what a gesture. Thom - be sure you´ll get something to compensate you for the WO ... I have there almost some things directly in mind... so I´ll see ;)

The #68 WO is a pattern I almost wanted for a long time. I remember Sarah made a thread about it some years ago and at the current activity this thread reminded me about the #68 equal end frame: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/1170461-My-views-on-my-White-Owl

So I came home from a long and stressy day - more than 11 hours at the office :barf: (believe me - beer is what I need :D ) - a package waited for me as well as Max. But he wasn´t that interessted in the package, it seems.

The #68 is such a wonderful an thin carry. It will often ride my coin pocket of the jeans. And the stag is just great. German stag is different to that one, definitelly. None is better than the other, but the difference is clearly visible.

Some pics of my first White Owl and my First GEC Stag Knife I got from a Great Guy here on the Forums

This was the content of the package - with a nicely handwritten letter :)



The knife with its details













What a great knife - thanks so much for this :)

Oh - BTW: Schöne Grüße zurück nach England von Max, Sandra und mir (natürlich) :)

I hope I can compensate that soon, my friend!!!
 
Good for both of you! Giving is better than receiving, and receiving ain't bad! ;)

Nice story and a great lookin' Northfield!!
 
Nichts zu danken Andi ;)

So pleased it got there so swiftly....and that it lifted your spirits after another long slog at work.

By the way, I think maybe Max will be more interested in a few years....so watch out! ;)
 
Hey, good going, Thom! And congrats, Andi!

...I agree, in a few years you may have to argue with Max as to who gets to carry it that day! ;)

I love to see these things happen, gives me the Warm'N'Fuzzies. :thumbup:
 
I remember when Scruff first got that White Owl, and it's very generous to pass it on in this way. Well done Scruff, and a great recipient of your kindness of course. Great stuff guys :) :thumbup:
 
Be advised Andi, this is a fine pattern you may neglect your other knives for quite a while...

Decent bit of stag on it too.

Decent is exactly what Thom has shown himself to be many times on this forum, a very generous man.

As for stressful work-days, yeah:barf: But beer and knife chat is a big consolation (wine too:D)

All the best, Will
 
Superb Thom!
Andi lets hope this will become your go to knife:p
 
Two of the best---Way to go Thom and a very generous gift indeed!!!

And Andi what a Anti Stresser? Both you and Thom are good fellas:thumbup:

Always great to read these type's of threads, I have a similar thread coming up;)
