From Hilo...

Post by DAYWALKER »

Aloha ALL,

Just wanted to drop in and say hi. Gotta go to sleep soon, but before I do...well, repeat the first sentence. :p

Been really busy obviously, and I apologize for any mails that I may have missed replying to. I know there was a thread here about a "keychain Subcom"? Also, something about a "Polished Biscuit"? I got sent pics of a Lava with a Damascus blade...that was killer! Hah, this thread should be a "while you were away" kind of thing, and links to threads regarding Lava, Trance, and Biscuits could be posted here! ;)

I hope everyone has been well, and I will try to make it a point to post more often. Hard though, because I know I will end up on this comp too long, and dipping into much, much needed rem time! :p

**** has not been kind...lots of drama there. Seems like admin just loves to burn staff, lotta weird change of posts, a buncha rookies just arrived...still though, lotta extended stays in **** even with them aboard. :mad:

Anyway, gotta go. Mahalo much, and God bless you all. ;)

PS: Totally OT, but I cannot for the life of me see how the Hissatsu FB is "the choice" for tactical use! Been toting around a Desert version during yardwork (Thanks zen'bro) and cripes, the thought of my hand slipping onto that long blade...eeks. :eek: It is still however, one of my favorite knives "even though". :cool:

Aloha, Chad!

Good to see you back on the forums, even if briefly. Get some sleep, I know you need it :cool:

And what's this you say about a damascus Lava??? :eek: :eek: :eek: Sounds like I need to catch up on what's going on too!!!

God Bless, Knifebrutter,

I've seen the first two, but no sign whatsoever of a Damascus Lava! If they guy who sent you the pics doesn't mind, any chance of seeing them?

I'll try to make a point of doing it! Hmm... I'll regret this, but any teasers regarding the MPT? Wonder if they'll make their way over to England in a month (dad has a business trip).

Again, good to see you again, and God Bless.

The handle seems to fall in the palm of your hand.
Keeping it as small as possible but with a secure grip.

Oh, forgot to add this:

If you don't mind Chad, would it be possible for you to put your site link in your sig? As said in the guestbook, I only found out about it through the link Potterma had in his sig, and it deserves to be seen by way more people.

God Bless.

The Chad........what's up man? :)

I just love how on the show "Scrubs" Todd calls himself "The Todd" so I tried it with your name. :D

Anyway, good to see you're ok, and just busy. God Bless you and your family. I hope "****" treats you better. God is always with you and I know you know that.

Peace,
