Thanks for the birthday comment. I definitely got enough cake. My breakfast every morning this week has been a LARGE slice of cake & a banana.

Thanks Steve!

Thanks for my 'birthday' message; very nice of you.

I sent the blade to Josh at Razor Edge Knives and he did a fantastic job acid, stonewashing the blade. When I finally got it back together I had 3 small finger cuts. Sharpest edge I've ever seen.

Thanks for the birthday wishes it turned out to be a good day.

Thanks Again

David

thanks a million. It's been an event filled interesting 80 yrs.

Thank you for the hearty welcome. Looking forward to learning all I can on the topic. I am currently researching a Boker knife. I have been able to determine its manufacturing period 1891-1944 but that is a pretty broad range. Any suggestions?
