Fixed blade private karma!

[sstpierre]

Unbelievable generosity, Andy (edgehill) sent me the most impressive gift, a Spyderco Perrin Fixed Blade, with Panther Concealment Custom sheath!

Back story here is I used to have this same exact rig, during a time where finances dictated I needed a boost, I sold it to a great guy (Xbonz) who always said I could buy it back anytime. (Class Act!)

I always had intention of doing so, but due to budget, have always had to err on the side of food, meds, bills, rent etc.

Then along comes a package today, when I arrived home from work, BOOM!

Andy had sent me the same exact setup, in a most thoughtful and generous gesture! Andy said he was inspired by Clyde, and I am just totally blown away!

The COTEP religion is truly a great thing! And all the members here have been nothing short of fantastic when it comes to being true awesome folks!

Andy, your truly a great guy for recognizing my void and placing an incredible karma in my hands!

I'll post some pics when I get a chance to take em!

My MANY MANY thanks to Andy, and to Clyde for giving him the inspiration!

I am truly blessed!

yes, class act!!! Not to thread jack but a certain guy on here sent me a EDC knife that I love. I carry it every day on duty...He might even chime in....Great people on here no doubt!!! Heck I don't like some of my family as much as some of you guys!

[milkmanjoe]

So I had a really crappy day yesterday, went to bed real early last nite and wake up to see this great story. Yesterday just went away. Great thing to do, Andy....... Scott, wear it in good health.

[NAMVET72]

Sorry Scott2 you are two young for that Big of a Blade send it to me and I will grind it down for you:eek::eek::eek::eek::D

Andy is the rock star here! You all have done a great job letting him know that as well, much deserved thoughts and attaboys! Truly a gift from the heart, one I will never forget!

I am still reeling, I feel very honored, and to honor Andy giving me this blade I vow to wear it as much as possible. I hadn't really got around to wearing my original one before I sold it, I put this one on this morning, got used to it right away at a 4-4:30 position, and kept it on all day.

Felt great knowing I had such a blade at my disposal, wore well, and comfortably!

Thanks again Andy! Are you relegated to just the Hen&Rooster for carry now? I hope you don't feel a void!

I've been carrying 10.5 inches of high carbon steel. No void.

Stand up move Andy, BZ! (I learned a new acronym today)

Congrats.

Mrs. Edgehill was very pleased by scott's gift.

[Riverpigusmc]

Good deal

[LittleGator]

Henckles. . . wife and I have had a set for over 20 years, very nice knives! Enjoy!

[Gatorade]

Those full tang Henkels are great. I have had my 8" chef and 4" paring knife for years. I have a dozen other knives on the wall beside them and those two get 95% of the jobs done in a hard working family kitchen.

[sstpierre]

Glad they were well received Andy! I am still very grateful for your generosity, and happy I could get something to you that was useful. Bonus that your Wife is happy about them too!

I have been wearing the Perrin every day, it is now a part of me, I never leave home without it! It is truly a cherished blade, one for the great blade it is, and two for the very special way it came to me.

Thanks again Andy for your thoughtful generosity!
