    Carl 

    got an email today through the iKnifecollector system from you telling me you'd like to join our Elephant Toenail Collector Club, but I see you have clicked in and joined the group we have here for it, SO you are already a member! No Membership dues or anything like that. We met once up on Bradford at Case (in the boardroom...it was pretty cool) but haven't scheduled another meeting....really we're an online club :)

    Glad to have you!

    That Finish folder is made with  stock aluminum extrusions intended for windows or screen doors. I'm told the shop is very small.

    Carl, I hope you will join our new "uniqueopen/lock" group.

    What kind of ebay info are you looking for? I have sold before but am not a big seller right now. I buy on ebay mostly now.  Thanks for the thumbs up on my eBay tips blog article.

    Hi Carl, I'll put that Happy Birthday wish in the bank for next Jan 26.  One can never have too much  good will currency!  Your  Ka-Bar MOP   toe knife is super.  I'd would venture that your Dad's combat knives are your favorite blades.  Connections through knives are treasures of memory.  All the best, Bill

    Carl- I have been looking into known issues and all the info I can find indicates Internet Explorer 9 is incompatible. Do you by chance use this as your web browser?

    Howdy Carl and likewise! I also am hanging with IE8. Seems more "stable" to my taste. In saying this, I must admit that technology races ahead and I end up kind of "chasing it" from a distance. Oh wel. The upside generally outweights the frustration, right? Be well and keep your powder dry!

    Hi Carl. I'm sorry to tell you that the orders for the GEC #36 Buffalo Horn Sunfish are closed and the knives have been delivered. I'm sorry you didn't get a chance to get one as I see that you have a wonderful collection of Sunfish and Toenails. GEC just released a brand new knife called the "Whaler" which is a copy of the C. Platts Jumbo Swell Center Elephant Toenail. I would suggest that you call GEC, or a GEC distributor, right away and order one befor the limited production sells out.

    Carl,

    I just have to comment that you certainly have a fantastic collection of fixed blades! Especially those older Puma's! I thoroughly enjoy admiring your collection!

    Cheers,

    Carl, thanks for the reply.  You are right.  The so called main stream media is so prejudiced that they will not print the truth.

    Don't worry, I am an NRA member and am paid up until 2019.  I also have contributed to the NRA ILA. 

    And for what its worth, I EDC both an S&W .38 and a Ruger LCP.
