Waynorth's Birthday Thread, His SFO's

[Nature Boy]

Happy Birthday, Sir!
Here are just a couple I happen to have readily available this evening. Thank you!

Trying to find the words that express just how cool this SFO is.... quite a rare wee one here...now Charlie- just what was the story behind this one as it is one of 4 or so?

Joined later by the newer release 48 a beautiful wee slim package- superbly built - Charlie the planning in one knife alone must be huge...

The ever so Iconic 66 Frame HJ- Man...what a Knife! I am extremely privileged to own an pre Ban ivory example..

I cant recall just how many TC's I have gifted over the years - but I feel that they are something special - gifting such a knife- and also receiving one as well is such an amazing feeling - future generations will without a doubt be hunting for these - I think you know this...
I recall Charlies Words on the Tube with this Knife - along the lines that you the buyer are buying one of the more beautiful Traditionals around.....
I agree totally - unconditionally the 77 Washington Jack is a mind Blowing Stunning piece of Cutlery Art...

The 77 in Clip Point - Both of these Stunners attributed to our Birthday Boy..

 

[Campbellclanman]

Rare ones again....

The wee 14 Frame,

Now - I often wonder just how and what it would take to be involved in making a SFO, well if I ever did, and one day I would like to explore this further once I get a bit more under my belt, who knows...but if a knife that I had to do anything with came out like this Knife- I am sure I woukld die a Happy Man.
Words Kind of at a loss when trying to explain just how magnificent THIS knife is...
I think it is one of THE most attractive ( I did say one of THE ) Knives I have seen, what a Home Run Hit this Knife is....

 

[Campbellclanman]

When Charlie did another very sentimental thing with his Knives- well...it struck a cord in me, I thought this was such a very very neat thing to do - Charlie had Walnut TC's made from a Walnut Gun Butt from his father- now how awesome is this? Such precious Knives....( not all are the Walnut shown, there is a beautiful mixture here of woods that just come to life in the Natural Sun - VERY poor photos of magnificent knives )

Happy Birthday, Charlie!

It is astonishing to contemplate what you have accomplished in just the last few years alone-- and with such grace, generosity, and good humor.

Thanks for bringing us along.

Wow! What a display of exquisite cutlery!!!

Guess I'll have to show off my factory one-of-a-kind "Harness Lifter" that I somehow managed to talk Charlie out of:

Love it, love it, love it!!!!

Happy Birthday Charlie !!!!!

If any of these are not Charlie's I'm sorry. Thank you Charlie for all you do and have done my friend. By the way I guess you and I both turned 30 this year.
