I haven't heard from Goose in a while. Did he get abducted at Sturgis? Aliens?
 
He may be on safari deep in the interior of darkest internest to find the elusive ivory-handled 120.
 
LOL Brothers...I am "here". With my virtual tribe of Buck hunters.
Hawaii and Sturgis (or BCCI 20th) didn't happen this year.
In a few weeks my wife is taking me on my first crusie. Going to Mexico and all I am thinking about is how to I get a Buck folder on-board (any tips/hints appreciated).

Haven't found a 120 ivory, but have my sights on a 650 w/ G-10 handles :)

Your Fellow Buck Tribe Member...

I went on a cruise (Carnival Conquest) about three weeks ago and on the advice of a friend, I did not bring any knife along. While in terminal preparing to board, we spoke to some of the carnival crew members who said there would be no problem with bringing a knife along. A plan I heard once was to melt a candy bar in an old, crusty looking pair of underwear to make it look soiled and wrap the knife up in it and put it in a plastic bag. Though it may not be legal, it will definitely deter anyone from reaching in there for the knife. YMMV.

You're going to *Mexico* with your *wife*??? :eek:

That's like taking a bologna sandwich to a barbecue... :rolleyes:

(The news is full of stories of husbands falling overboard on crusies...never the wife...why is that, I wonder???...) :confused:
 
Good to see you are doing fine, Goose. I get a bit paranoid when one of my brothers is MIA. That cruise sounds like just the ticket and one of your custom 110s' would like it as well!

LMAO! I darn near spit my coffee all over my screen! That is one saying that is worth remembering. :D
 
I never had trouble carrying a knife on a 'cruise'. I guess because we had nuc's on board, a knife didn't seem all that important. The same clothing got old - and the swimsuit optional 'heave to for swim call' seemed a bit odd. Never saw Mexico - but we did see Cuba, Jamaica, Bermuda, Italy, etc. I got to be SP in some interesting places... again, a knife wasn't as 'important' as your stick. At least stateside, we could carry a 1911.

Hmmm, Goosey, how's about a white-bone-handled 119 as a realizeable goal, vs the ivory 120? BP... BP... BP...

Decided that I am gonna take my 271 154CM Dorado in my luggage (and in the sheath the right way ;))

And, yep, my wife prob thinks she's taking a bologna sandwich to a BBQ :D since she's paying.

Just tell her that you are really rib-eye in disguise. ;)

Good choice on the 271, although I am a bit prejudice.
 
Goose, Rosie is proud of you.:thumbup:If you see How Long tell he we said hello.:D

Guys, Goose,

Google "Security Briefs" for device used in carrying a knife on board ship in your suitcase.
I was uneasy to show such high tech knife security in the possible presence of women and children.....as a earlier security expert suggested you could make your own...............300Bucks.
