More than a gift

[Âchillepattada]

Hello,

This morning I was waiting for a parcel . When it arrived it appeared to be heavier than I expected.....
And it was because its content was not the one I expected. It was a gift from a friend called Charlie

All these knives are far from my field of knowledge so it's not only a gift it's also an occasion to discover new things about the knives .

Thank you Charlie

Awesome gift !

 

[Eli Chaps]

That's wonderful! Good for you.

Very nice Charlie.

Achille, that's a very generous gift from a very fine gentleman! Porch generosity at its best.

Beautiful gesture. I love this place.

Congratulations sir! The contents of your package would put a smile on anyone’s face. Charlie is a generous individual. I look forward to shaking his hand about this same time a week from today!

Christmas comes early this year! Charlie strikes again and you lucky guy, with an impressive array of classics!
Seems the gift-winds are blowing toward France these days, there was a parcel in the daughter's mailbox this morning from Finland via Paris containing a marvelous and surprising Lil' Canadian.
Thank you @Will, you caught me by surprise!
Pictures come later when back home as I have just an obsolete laptop I'm unable to load pixes to from my phone.
This place is just awesome!

Glad it got there safely, A!! The knife roll is an experiment I did years ago! I had a seamstress sew them up out of remnant material. They are very useful but a little too expensive to make for knife collectors. It's been back and forth to ten years of knife shows. The Case Barlow is an untouched old Wabi-Sabi, as is the Case stockman. Thought you'd like a multi-blade in a sea of singles!! Serpentine Jacks and a gent's pearl pen knife wrap it up. The coin is for the gift YOU sent!!

That is a nice selection of knives, and just another example of why this is such a great place!!

 

[Txjohn]

I'm a sucker for case greenbone . What pattern, 47?

 

[Campbellclanman]

What great reading first thing in the morning!
Good things from good people.
Gifted Knives are something more than just a knife - to me - and is am guessing to most- it’s always a treasure, it looks like you received a bounty of Treasure

Very generous indeed, which is not surprising at all on the porch.

[steelnut]

Great stuff Charlie's middle name is 'Kindness' - or it should be!
