I have to brag just a wee bit here. I just received a long awaited blade. Harry and Charlie Mathews, both members here, made it for me. They are, for all intents, retired from making steel, and I lucked out. Big time! Thanks so much for making an old timer happy. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/JaVb0A1.jpg)

Nice clean classic design. What blade steel?
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

Just to understand, your quote: "They are, for all intents, retired from making steel" meant: "They are, for all intents, retired from making KNIVES..."

Knives are steel. Steel is knives. Terms mean the same to a knife nut. 😎

I think I remember seeing their example. Good looking utility knife . I like it a lot!
Is there a secret way to grovel?
