Completely Shocked

[AkWildman]

I came home late Monday night from Prudhoe Bay and saw that my Blade Knives of 2021 had arrived, my wife had a plate of food fixed for me in the microwave and I sat down to eat and was skimming through it when to my surprise one of my pieces was staring back at me ! I was shocked and so excited that I woke up my wife to show her (always a daring and dangerous move) and she said that's nice dear come to bed my feet are cold . Kinda reminded me of Christmas Story when the old man received his prestigious award (leg lamp) lol. In other new my metal shop building arrived in Alaska safe and sound and is now waiting at the landing for the river to freeze up so I can haul it out to the homestead. Also my new AC/DC 200amp tig machine showed up so I'm looking forward to putting it to use .

A VERY nice looking knife and you did really good.

On another note, your comments about getting stuff makes me realize just how lucky I am to live here in paradise on the Gulf Coast - even waiting for the hurricane tonight.

Well deserved honor. It is a beautiful knife.

I hope you framed that!!! With my luck I'd come home and see that my wife used it to line the bird cage without even looking at it first!

you have a bird?

The wife has two finches in a big display case looking thing. I'm not fan of squawking birds. Finches don't make much noise at all, so it's cool. My mother used to have a cockatiel that was certifiably insane. I've never hated an animal more in my life.
