Almost finished up with mine, will be shipping this weekend or Monday of next week. I have not received yet but we still have some time I believe so no worries.

Up 'til 11:30 or so last night working on a sheath for mine.  Need to add a few finishing touches over the next couple of days and it'll be ready to ship.  I kinda like the way it's turning out, hopefully the recipient feels the same way.

OK everyone, we only have a few more days before the deadline. Lets see if we can have all gifts shipped by the designated ship date.  8)

I checked the calendar today.  The 15th is a Sunday with the next day (16th) being MLK Day.  So...in truth, all exchange gifts should be shipped by the 14th.  :o  Sorry if you're looking for more time to finish, but the facts is the facts.  ;)   >:D dpg

i don't think a day here or there matters much, as long as we don't have the same trouble as the bow trade, Bub

I agree with bubby I am still waiting on two people from the bow trade to ship and we are about due to start the bow trade in another month or so  ;D

It has arrived Madcrow!!!!  I was trying to get some pics uploaded by my kid's had my camera batt. charger with them down state.  Got them now and need to upload them to show off.

All I can say is that you have no idea how blessed I felt when I opened the box...this year has been a very tough go for me and recently I have had a world of issues and troubles (I was the guy who was going to drop out of the Xmas gift trade but the gang here kept my name in the hat and someone graciously covered for my end of the bargin and they still kept my name in the trade...I can't thank all of you who were a part of that enough!!)

The quiver is just stunning and will be used on all my primitive hunts from now on...I skinned out a coon from my trapline with the neck knife and just love that little bugger and the sheath to death.  The flint knife was a total bonus and to say you spoiled me doesn't really do the whole gesture justice.  I don't have any pics of the nice neckless you sent as my 9yr old, Gray, ran off with it immediately after I opened it  ::) You, my friend, are one extremely talented man!  Thank you so much for you generosity!

Here are some pics:

I couldn't agree more Josh, "lucky", "blessed", etc hardly cover the efforts of the folks here on PA on my behalf...not another community like it as far as I am concerned. 

Thanks Buckeye Guy for covering my rear on such short notice!

I'm bein more onry than honest.  if it takes a few days more to put on the final touches, by all means, take the time. 

Man that quiver is RAD maccow and Lee!  and the knives are Sweet!  Lee, hope things are looking up for ya.  dpg
