America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.
Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

I sent Charlie Bell a pair of Amber Culpepper Jigged Bone slabs and asked him to make a Sowbelly for me. I really like what he came up with. Excellent fit and finish, and what a swedge!
There's just something about a very well used knife, many cringe and would discard a knife like that as it has served well beyond it's time. I look at it with awe and wonder about the life it led and the stories it could tell and the companionship between it and the ownerSlightlyused 1920s Remington right now.
