2nd Annual Christmas Trade Pictures

[mullet]

 Well, I got home and had a box waiting for me too. It was from David Knight and hope it was for the trade, if not I'm not going on a date or anything. I had to whip the pocket knife out and see what was there. Here it is and thanks David, that is a neat piece of wood. And GO GATORS.

I'm glad it got there and you like it..I was told you got a system to get them sharp so I didnt do to much in the way of getting it sharp..
 I had a friend of mine let me use his leather tools to get the case done for it..I never claimed to be a leather guy...

I joined the PA forum too late to take part in the Christmas Gift Exchange, but KnightD wrote and said we could just have our own, on the side.   I haven't seen his pics up with the gifts I made and sent him, but here is the little honey he sent me.   Nice work, David.  THANKS MAN!!  I'm headed out on a paddling trip in mid February and this is coming with me.  Piper

Those are some very nice gifts from everyone.
 Good lookin knives, David. You didn't tell me you were a knife maker

 Madcrow, that boys grinnin face has made my day   I hope it's not too much weight for him I wouldn't want to over bow him and cause bad habits.  That bow is tillered out to 27", so he should be able to shoot it a loooong time.
 Let me know if he ever makes meat with it.  Saw Filer

Got home tonight and found a long cardboard tube on the porch from Hickoryswitch. Inside was an awesome bow, looks to be rawhide backed hickory from what I can tell in the dark-Great looking, great feeling bow, I can't wait to get out and shoot it this weekend. Also a nice antler/copper pressure flaker that will get put to good use. I'll get some pics up as soon as I can get home in the daylight.

Glad you got it hillbilly I was starting to get worried that the mail people decided to keep it.  Yeah it's rawhide backed hick. I'm sure you gots plenty bows but figured you can always use one more.

[Hillbilly]

You can never have too many bows, 'specially nice'uns like that.
