I just picked up the "ibid":D half to this piece of Oregon Maple for some kitchen knife handles. Im a sucker for beautiful wood! It is pricey at $75 for this extra large piece but it is about twelve inches long and enough for two large knives and a few smaller ones. Cant wait to play with it!

What is this, a lake of molten gold with the setting sun shining on it? $75 seems good. Cant wait to see the final knife handles:)

Yep, I didn't know if you did or not. Some leathercrafters do, some don't so figured since you do such beautiful work I would ask in case you did. No worry though you are right shipping a gun is a nightmare these days on a par with trying to find someone who thinks congress is doing a good job LOL. No matter your personal beliefs the fact they suck is the one thing everyone agrees on. Anyways, like I said, just thought I would check incase. Might need some leather custom work done for my kuhk. The wooden sheath is great for display and decor but is in no way a useful tool. Need to consider if i am going to carry this one or just use it for Kendo forms and looking good LOL. Have to see what comes up in the next month or 2 for working Kuhks before I decide to convert a wall hanger.

When your ready you hit me up and we go go from there. I just saw where you live, your near Bawanna best be careful :D
 
Its Curly Maple. My first piece of stabilized wood. I really have no business messing with a $75 piece of stabilized wood this purdy but what the heck. Only live once.

Piece of cake ndog. You'll think your working with fiberglas when you start. The dust is super fine and pure white. It's neat stuff, don't shrink or swell or crack. If it's stabilized properly that is. I wish it wasn't so bloody expensive though. It's very pretty and there's tons of colors and grains etc. Allows ya to use wood you normally couldn't, like burl's and stumps with voids and rot etc.

I anxious to see what you do with it.

Well I'll be dipped in Mustard Gas, Shavru is my neighbor? Seattle is a big place though and a jungle in Seattle proper. I asked her to be my friend but I seen Phillll the little jocky racer that he is done beat me to it. Guys can be wicked quick around here I'll tell ya.

I actually have a dozen or so cyber brides on another gun forum, and none here, so before some other speedy Gonzalez jumps the gun.

Shavru (picture me on bended knee, not easy for a derelict in a wheelchair handsome and charming as he may be). Will you marry me? Cyber of course, you don't have to dump your old man, or cook or clean or pickup after me or nothing. Actually no fringe benefits at all now that I ponder it other than we can be sweet to each other and everyone won't look funny at us cause we're married and all.

Yes___ No____ Let me think about it____

For safety sake, just how big an ole boy is your really hubby, I always ask this not that I'm afraid ya understand, petrified perhaps.


And Pugs warns ya about me, he's the one with all the leather and beaver tails. I'm reasonably harmless by comparison. Not to mention the barefoot bandit down in Texarcana.

Maybe I should send a chopper as a dowry or one of them hope chest bait items. Hope Chest might be real. Hope I don't tick er off and get the business edge of the chopper. Too risky me thinks.

You got me falling out of my chair over here Bawanna. This might just be the first marriage proposal ever on the H.I. forums. Correct me if I'm wrong, folks.

How I imagine this going:

Who's the chick now? LoL
 
LOL, Hmm hubby isn't too big. Which might be the problem. I hear the really big ones are nice and gentle...the little guys get Napoleon complexes and have to take on everyone. Think a Chihuahua when it meets a pit bull. The bigger dog just stares as the little one makes all the aggressive moves. Unfortunately Brett is an ex SOC sniper so I think I will do us both a favor and respectfully decline LOL. His bite is at least as bad as his bark. (He also has a great sense of humor so I really wouldn't be worried in all seriousness) As far as the picture I probably resemble the turkey more than the girl LOL it is about right proportionally height to width and the skin color is closer to my own ;) Though I have to allow that the shotgun is far more me than the feathers. Either way Bawanna I think you are getting off with me not taking you up on it, but marriages take effort to keep em right and I am just here to relax so, thank you but I will have to decline your gallant offer.
 
My very first cyber marriage rejection. I'll be ok, really I will. I hope you didn't misunderstand my intentions. No canoodling, probably never meet, nothing these other nasty guys are thinking. I have cyber brides from 30 to 60+. All over the country. Never met any of them.

I hope you still respect me the day after ya know. I'm gonna try not to fall on my Katana. I'll be ok.

I might propose to Auntie tomorrow, I've wanted to for a long time now.
 
Who's Barb? I don't think I have any cyber brides named Barb, I'll have to check the list. If I do and your reading this, remember your my favorite and I'm sorry.
 
So glad to hear no Katana falling is in your future Bawanna, I would hate to be the one to deprive all the others of their Cyber Hubby. So glad none of those sharp objects in your room need to be worried about. Besides, look at it this way, if everyone said yes then there wouldn't be anything special about it. So celebrate the ones that did instead of worrying about the ones that dont :)

Jens, The subtitle looks familiar but I can't quite figure it out. Every time I think I recognize something more than a word it throws me a curve. What language is it?
 
Careful there Bawanna. I doubt Aunties "no" is verbal:eek: Seems I remember a story somewhere about some pretty lady on a bus having to pull a "boot knife (er leg knife in this case) on someone making advances on her. Maybe was someone else? Could have been a cyberknife...or maybe Kyberknife...? Heck I dont remember now?

When Yangdu was a young girl and used to travel to India to visit relatives she would ride what is called the "night bus." The male passengers would often try to become amorous with female passengers during the darkness of night so Yangdu would always tape a small 9 inch khukuri to the inside of her thigh. If she was approached she would reach under her anghi (long Sherpa dress) and whip out her little khukuri. Her stock phrase was, "if you want to keep that hand then keep it off me." --Bill Martino

Amorous never ended my mind, in fact I had to look it up in my Funk and Wagnell. It's think it's one of them synonyms with canoodle. I'm reevaluating.

This cyber bride thing for me ain't nothing bad, not cyber stalking or nylon stockings or leiderhose or nothing like that at all. It's kind of a BFF Best Friends Forever kind of thing.

I'm reevaluating, I never had no issues on it before. Maybe I've finally lost my natural charm and it's all over for me. Maybe time to start seeing other people.

I proposed to Ndogs wife this morning and I got a similar rejection, I'm feeling a tad bit down ya know. All this rejection. I might try one or two more but a half man can only take so much rejection ya know?

Wasnt a rejection ya see... I just said since I call ya "daddy" wouldnt be fitten for you to marry my wife in Texas. We'd have to go to one of the other states like where Jens lives or Texas people likely send me to Huntsville! Aint there a prison in Folsom? I seem to recall Johnny Cash singing something about that!
