I was the intended recipient of Dr. Lipids long lost gift... $:-\$ But, being a stand-up guy he instead hooked me up with an Amazon GC so that I can pick out something instead.

Happy Holidays and thanks again Dr. Lipids!

bladechick777 · **Reply #582 on:** December 16, 2011, 09:49:03 PM

Lol Nice. I Think We Should Make Him An Honorary Santa Because He's Like Normal People And Doesn't Get Everything Perfect. So He Is How Santa Should Be.

I'd Get Confused With All Of Those Packages And Stuff Too!

Still sitting, waiting, wishing here, but that's no surprise as Canada Post is notoriously slow.

Getting ready to cut through the tape.

Awesome gifts!!

Thanks so much to the sender (essexman) for participating and taking the time and effort to shop some cool stuff internationally and steve for organizing the whole thing. It's all awesome!!

Glad you like it, Happy Christmas!

So it's early Sat morning and I'm sat at work doing an extra shift, reading this has made me smile.

BTW I told told off by my wife after making the neck lanyard, the Christmas paracord was ment to be for her and the kids. don't worry, there's still around 50 foot left for them to work with.

bladechick777 · **Reply #591 on:** December 17, 2011, 09:23:32 AM

Those Are Really Nice Gifts You Gave Essexman.

And I'm Sure You're Wife Won't Be Mad For Long.
As Long As Her And The Kids Still Get To Mess With Some Cord.

Also That Sucks You Have To Work An Extra Shift!

parmenides · **Reply #592 on:** December 17, 2011, 02:22:55 PM

I keep meaning to post some info and pics on it but have been too busy. This knife has some of the thickest brass liners on it I have ever seen.

tattoosteve99 · **Reply #595 on:** December 17, 2011, 04:07:58 PM

Just thought I would pop in and say thanks to everyone. You have given me inspiration here and at home. I enjoy this place so much. On one other note....I will post on Christmas eve everyones name and gift item that way everyone should have a chance to thank each one personally and everyone.

bladechick777 · **Reply #596 on:** December 17, 2011, 04:23:18 PM

It's a Really Nice Knife Martin.
And That's A Good Idea Steve.

That lanyard that he sent is so awesome. I tried that knot but haven't been able to get it down yet.

Come on Ash! You're the knot angel.

Just for you.......... take two 10 foot lengths, fold each in half and loop together. Start a four cord braid/plait (i know you can do that, I've seen your dog leads), at 26 iches splice the four leading cords through the start point. Now thats the neck loop made.

The next bit can be whatever you want, a inch or so with a split ring on the end or a couple of clips. So for example you could run a cobra weave, snake knot, turks head, whatever you feel like?

Edit - You were talking about the neck lanyard? Or did you mean the red and silver king cobra, or the wee man?

82brutus · **Reply #599 on:** December 17, 2011, 07:09:51 PM

BTW, they are all super nice and I'm loving the Christmas paracord, but the wee man rocks!!!
