Howdy all Well it was like Christmas morning yesterday. I’ve received my new knife . I’m over the top with the whole thing . It’s extremely light weight and the blade is sharp enough to do surgery. As everyone says the pictures NEVER do the knife justice. I did ask Gary to hold onto it till my daily M97 was rehabilitated. Thanks much for tuning my old knife . I’ll try to take beby kurt wag - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Gary & Kelly I also finally got my second vaccine. The first one I didn’t notice anything not even a sore arm . Now my 2nd one was way different on the day after . Today I’ve got random joint pain and it’s very isolated. No nausea or chills or headaches. But muscle and joints radiating from the arm shot ! Hopefully it passes soon .by kurt wag - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
I love the wood work gary . I’ll bet it’s a lot easier on tooling and clean up too .by kurt wag - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Thanks Gary Just so y’all know .... this was my first Barnes knife and I carry it loose in my pocket ( against advise ) EVERY DAY . I use and abuse this knife daily and due to the style of knife I got lots of stuff caught between the sides of the knife . Coins, dirt , fuzz . It has held up very well and I feel naked without it in my pocket . It was still kinda working but needed a tune uby kurt wag - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum

“Gary’s Knife “ That’s what you named it a few years back . It’s also one of my very favorite !by kurt wag - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Gary I’ve always been amazed at your ability to bring out the VERY BEST in any item and then offer your vision. That mammoth looks great the way you’ve chosen and polished it . The fit is truly outstanding and I speak from experience . As you know I carry mine in my pocket loose and I had an insert ( antler ) come unglued . After talking with you about self gluing it , I was amazed at hby kurt wag - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum

Gary So sorry to hear . That’s all ya need at this time. I’m glad you’ve chose all the necessary precautions available. I’ve also finally got my first vaccine . I’m hopeful it will help but hey I’ve been social distancing since the 90’s ( haha ) and except the family I don’t miss going out at all . Take care my friend and you and Miss Kelly be safe !by kurt wag - Gary's Galleries
Ok Gary Now your just showing off and teasing us . That’s the style of my very first Barnes knife and my daily carrier . I can’t say enough about that blade style and design and how I’ve enjoyed showing it off . I feel naked when it’s not in my pocket . Thanks for sharingby kurt wag - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Gary I really love the green ( malachite) along with of course EVERYTHING ELSE ! Has this knife been sold yet ? Winner for sure Thanks for sharing !by kurt wag - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Gary $675 for that knife is a crazy deal . I can’t believe with all that stimulus money going around somebody ain’t scooping it up . Ok well if nobody claims it I’ll call it my STIMULUS knife . I’ll take it !by kurt wag - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Looks like some progress there for sure . It’s seems like things are always so busy around the holidays. I can appreciate the certain tasks that don’t cause as much pain as others. You have to modify your actions accordingly . I pray for an easier year for everyone and especially those ESSENTIAL workers .by kurt wag - Gary's Galleries
Gary Among other things you ARE a master grinder . For all the years I’ve run abrasive machines it’s still very difficult and yours ( grinds ) are spot on !by kurt wag - Gary's Galleries

Gary I read through your points and it’s sad but true . Wages HAVE gone up in the world for most of us working stiffs but seems like your only ever posta have a dollar left at the end of every pay period after bills ! EVEN with duel household incomes . Minimum wage 1980 = $3,10 Minimum wage 2020 = $9:45 Its terrible but you can’t make a living at that kinda wage . And we can’tby kurt wag - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
