Since no ones interest was sparked by my offer of bicycle parts...
I'd be interested in bike parts too. I ride both mountain and road. I was thinking of throwing some old pedals up.
I need to give my Walgoose Deception a little work in order to start riding again and a few components left something to be desired when I used to ride it. May I bug you later when/ if I start scrounging for parts (completely outside the PIF thread as a purchase/trade) sometime in the near future? The bike isn't even in the same city as me right now and I'm not sure when I will be able to get around to tinkering on it. It is back in my parent's barn in storage.
Sweet! Saving the world one bike at a time!
Wow, quite a kit.I got a box today and I want to give a huge thank you to Tankerwolf.
As a disabled Veteran, one that has lost friends in combat, And had my life changed completely from the experience it goes a very long way when someone actually shows they are thankful for our service. There is nothing more depressing than coming home after serving your country to being judged and discriminated against, and the feeling of loosing friends for what others treat as nothing.
Tankerwolf included a Thank you card with his gift to me, the card is now hanging with photos of my family and it truly touched me. Something others may consider a small deal, to me is a huge and very generous gift, and makes me PROUD I served and proud of my injuries and scars. Just knowing that there are people who are truly appreciative for our sacrifices makes it easy to hold our heads high with pride.
Now not only did he include a heart felt card, he also threw in a couple gifts I was not expecting at all, An awesome fishing knife, and a super cool multi-tool with a LED flashlight built in. The fishing knife will be displayed in its amazing box, and the multi-tool will be going on my belt, Its very nice looking, so it might be hard to use at first lol but I love the little tool, love the wood looking handles and love the size and weight of it as well!
The fish cleaning set will also get used, hopefully a VERY VERY lot and hopefully on some HUGE bluegills cats and bass LMAO
Tankerwolf, thank you my friend! I was touched and very grateful for your generosity!
without further Adieu,

Sounds perfect. I was a bit older than him when I got this knife but I used it quite a bit back then; cutting and sharpening samplings making spears and bows, stuff like that. It was screaming sharp when I first got it, I bled on it the first day, so I know it can take a keen edge. But it can also take some abuse and the rubber handle, though not pretty, makes it super grippy. You can probably get a generic nylon sheath for cheap.

Email sent. Well, it will be under supervision. He's got a cheapo imitation SAK and does pretty good with it. As long as he's sitting down and with an adult, I'm sure he'll be fine. He's one of those well adjusted kids...don't know how he ended up with me. LOL
See man, you are a valuable asset![]()
If he can handle a Chinese SAK, he can handle any knife.
Those were my 1st as a kid too and I'm convinced that the many times it closed on my fingers was due to the weak back spring but I now know how to handle slippies and friction folders in a way that they won't fold on me.
So yes readylol.
Get him a less dangerous SAK too![]()
