Man, those are slick. That ulu is cool, don't see many of them. And the ugliness just comes with the gene pool, how in the world could we be purty if we're even remotely related to something that looks like you? ;D It's a good thing you can knap that good and build all them purty bows and stuff, since you sure ain't gonna get rich in the modeling business. ;D

  Dang it Hillbilly! I think I'd be insulted if I didn't know that the distant Cuz' was a dead ringer for Earnest T. Bass.

     Hillbilly, if it wernt fer them Parkers, the rest of us would not be so too pretty good looking.  Whut with usin them as a comparison, and so forth.  I heard that one family of them Parkers, were so ugly, that when they went huntin they didn't take anything, to shoot with, they just " uglied " the critters to death.  They would see a squirrel, or rabbit, or deer, or whatever, and they would hide their face, and then when they were close enough, they would just look up at the critter, and it would just fall over dead.  The old man is still huntin, but his wife had to quit.  As she got older, she got uglier, and when she uglied the critters, she was tearing them up too bad. ;D ;D  No offense meant to the various clans of Parkers, that are scattered about.  Especially those that made the old Parker Brothers shotguns, one of which I have, and the Parkers who made  ;)those pens...... Now about them knives......Absolutely beautiful. ;)  Those are going to be some fantastic Christmas Gifts.  If flattery will help, I will be more than glad to change the above story, to another name......Eddie doesn't need one, he can make his own.  I on the other hand, am still a rank amateur, and would hold, and admire one of those knives, especially one of the daggers, with the Ulu.  I would love it, and hug it, and I would call it George......I hope you have a very Merry Christmas, and there is something wonderful under your tree, tomorrow.

James, I know I'm not related but I am one of your ugliest friends! ;D You told me that yourself.
  Hope you, Becca and Gabriel have a very Merry Christmas. I bet Gabriel was a wildman this morning.
  Alan told me that ya'll have an unwrapped package that you will open in a few months. Congrats!!!  8) 8) 8)     Pat
