[QUOTE="Chris Harrison, post: 3724487, member: 45813"] That's a very generous offer! I'd love to take you up on it. At this time, I'm removing stock. I think I'd like to try forging but it may have to wait until I retire and have the time. So, my daughters may be a bit different. They grew up on a ranch, a large working cow/calf operation that my inlaws ran. My older enjoyed hunting with and she shot action pistol with me for 5 years. Both daughters did 4 position small bore and both were martial artists and tournament fighters. Neither of them nor my wife care anything about bling on a weapon. Not that they don't consider a knife as a tool first and a weapon if needed. They have a set of skills that is unusual for young ladies, from driving skid loaders to driving a Freightliner Sport Chasis while pulling a 3 horse slant with a 19 ft living quarters and a slide out. While they are certainly "ladies" they are no-nonsense for the most part and my oldest has been up to her elbows in blood when hunting many a time. Practical and efficient are the order of the day. Now the oldest is a nurse, and working to be a nurse practitioner and the younger one has her BA and is working on MS to be a counselor. I'm very proud of them both. When I asked my oldest what she wanted in a knife, she said, "Well for my first one....." I had to laugh at her. She has been using after my AR in 6.5 Grendel, a precision rifle for years. I'm in the process of getting parts together to build myself a new one and I'll let her have the first one I made. When she and her family were here for Christmas I took her and her husband out to the range and she grabbed the Grendel after warming up at 100 years move to the 10" gong at 550 yards and was ringing the steel every shot. Ok that was way too much info! I have to run down to Bowie TX this weekend but I'd appreciate the chance to meet up with you if you have stock to yo want to let go of. [/QUOTE]
