John,

Glad you like the knife and the edge. Tricky sometimes to sharpen the very small ones, but I was pleased with how this one came out.

Thanks,

Andrew
 
Andrew - How did I miss this thread. I'm interested in the wood AG Russell's are they still available?

Mark,

They are, and I've put them "on hold" pending my e-mail to you. After all, you're one of the kind donors to this sale for the pups [see: #3) Schrade 5OT].

Thanks to everyone who bought a knife (or 2), some even kicking in a little extra for the pups. :thumbup:

A total of 13 knives have been sold, and the last 4 withdrawn.

All the sold knives have been delivered except for one heading overseas and that may be a while yet.

The total of the gross fees I've received on the sales is $679.75. I'm going to round that up to an even $700.00 for the pups.

I've got a call in to the Highland Lakes SPCA, and hope to make the drive out there to deliver the check by next weekend. That will be a happy event and I will post here the donation receipt from those good folks.

Thanks again to everyone!

Andrew

Well, my wife and I made it out to the Highland Lakes SPCA, had a nice visit with Matt, the mgr., saw the great progress they're making on the new kennel (pics here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/hgqcuqoqgttu1au/AABDAv4_jwwJXim2R0Pc0moaa?dl=0), and made the donation. Copied below is the official receipt I received today via e-mail.

Thanks again to all the great knife and dog lovers here on BF. You all are the best!

Andrew

Dear Andy,

Many thanks for your recent generous gift of $700.00 to the Highland Lakes SPCA! And many more thanks to the folks at BladeForums for making that gift possible. Your support allows us to rescue homeless and abandoned dogs in our community. Donations like yours have financed initiatives such as our new Emergency Medical Fund, the hiring of a new Shelter Manager, and the building of our new indoor kennel – which will be open for business in the next 60 days!

Your donation will be used to help run our special No-Kill rescue facility -- purchase food, medical supplies and services – covering all the needs of the animals in our care. Thank you for all you do for our organization.

With Sincere Thanks,

Randy Whitehead, President
Highland Lakes SPCA
