mr_edge,

You stated my thoughts better than I could. The image of someone planning a murder, selecting a switchblade, ordering a switchblade, waiting for delivery etc, etc, etc is so idiotic as to be amusing. Thanks for the perspective.

Jim

Falcon - what a concept. Wouldn't it be great if the very attempt to condemn us resulted in an increase in business for SKM!

Jim

Bonz, You are right again. I had not taken the time to read the entire article before I posted the link. Now that I have read it, I see it for the sensationalism that it is. It is unfortunate that the public thrives on that sort of thing, but it is apparently what sells magazines. Any real law enfor...

Spotlight,

I travel to Merrey Olde sometimes (Chester area) and sample (and sample and sample) the many fine bitters that are available. Unfortunately, bitters don't seem to be widely available in the USA

Greyblade,

The same with me about editing! I think that we are conditioned. If someone sees an improperly spelled work on our part then...WHAAAKKK.

Jim

Dexter,

Your suggestion is fine with me.

Jim

Dexter,

Good point! Free advertising, and Business Week has a HUGE circulation.

Jim

Dan -o, As usual, you make some good points. It is obvious that our security related government agencies have a lot more to worry about than us. It is almost laughable when you consider the profile of a typical member in the same sentence with a national security threat. We seem to be a pretty patri...

The forum knife should also have unique stamping or engraving. I tried to do a poll on this topic, but couldn't get it to work. Could someone who knows how to do it set one up? I guess we should vote on 9 vs 11in.; stag vs horn vs wood; damascus vs ss; standard vs bayonet vs dagger.

Jim

This topic has generated a lot of discussion on some of the other forums. I believe that at least all U.S.A. residents should be aware of it. Everyone, take note of the section on switchblades.

Any thoughts?

Bonz,

Yes it does, I went back and checked after you asked. Remember, I am a victim of 9 years of the nuns. One thing they do well is teach spelling. I'll bet Greyblade who suffered under the nuns for 12 years is a GREAT speller.

Jim

Bonz,

You make a good point. I have been as guilty as anyone with my remarks, yet I profess to want a forum that we can let our kids read if they share our interests in switchblades. What a hypocrite I am! I shall repent.

Jim

Bonz,

Thanks, that color photo of the my-t-myte card filled with knives looks like it might have been submitted by Switch67.

Jim

Bonz,

By real tang, did you mean a tang stamp? ...keeping things on-topic

Jim

I just noticed that Mr Bonzo has been granted the esteemed status of Moderator along with Tiny.
