    Hey Bruce
    I just wanted to drop by and say, "Welcome to our community." There are members here with tons of years of experience, so as you can drop in on one and say hello.
    In the meantime, if I can help you in any way, please let me know. I'm the community organizer.
    Thanks again
    Scott

    Greate knives, Bruce — I really enjoyed seeing them in person at the http://gulfcoastknifeclub.com meeting. Look even more substantial, rugged and well made in person.

    Hey Bruce
    I meant to drop by the other day and thank you for posting the knife show you have coming up in our Events Calendar. I appreciate it.
    Let us know how it goes. I'd like to get some reports from across the country on the shows for our members.

    If I may be so bold, any help you can do to spread the iKC word is very much appreciated. Here's a link to the flyer I made up for a handout :)

    Just curious about the RAT knives you sell. I have noticed that there are RATS made by Ontario Knife Co. and then there is RAT Cutlery Co. The knives from both companies look the same. Do you know if there is a difference if any? I was looking at possibly carrying a few in my line. I do close to 40 gun & knife shows a year. Thanks, Brad

    Thanks Bruce. I like your store. I am trying to complete a collection of 2007 #53 acrylic stockmans. A few of them they did not make many of so they will be hard to find.

    It was good, we had to put up with the Rodeo parade downtown. It was hard to find parking for the show, in the morning. But it was busy in the afternoon. It well probably be a good day Sunday, becouse nothing else well be going in.

    Hey Bruce, that was quite a show we had in Houston, wasn't it. I only hope it gets better and better from now on. If we didn't have Bro. Wes, it would be a much less enjoyable show. See ya at the next club meeting. Bring my Fallkniven H-1. Later.........Slade
