Re: 11 in. light horn stiletto

Well for a couple of years I was literally blind and in a wheelchair then went to bed one night and got up well, of course I was thrown in a hospital and tested, poked, and drove crazy while they tried to figure out why.

Re: 11 in. light horn stiletto

That is some pretty horn especially with the red streaks in it, I would almost swear that knife filtered through my hands at one time. :D

Re: Frank B tshirts

Of course I did a great job on the picture, Frank is my friend and he was counting on me not to make him look bad. I do still have some the shirts boxed up I was actually going to mail them to Nick so that they could find there way on to someones back instead of sitting in my closet.

Re: 13 inch Italian Stiletto firing slow, any way to fix?

I figure it’s not really a big deal because it will only take a few minutes of my time and if I am able to do something for him it will make a big difference in the way he feels about his knife. The people on this forum may bicker on occasion but all in all when one of us needs help there is always ...

Re: button safety
