Nix, not of this world.
on: February 07, 2018, 04:57:31 PM
I recently asked to trade for a Dragonfly and this wonderful man messaged me telling me he had one.  Not only did he have one but the one I was really wanting.  Talk about being super stoked. 

Heres the thing tho.  He didn't want to trade????  He wanted to give it to me.   :ahhh.  Ok.......  but......... I have things to trade.  I'm not sure who this wonderful man is, tho you've seen all over the boards how generous he is. 

I told him I was thankful and asked if he fly fished.  I have flies I acquired yet no use for them.   Thankfully he does fly fish so I will be sending him these as I said I would.  I lag but I will get these out soon.   

Nix, thank you again for your generosity.  Its such a wonderful community we have here at MTO and I am proud to be a part of it.  You not only have been incredibly generous to me but others here on MTO and I'm certain many in your lifetime.  I hope these flies catch you something out in Montana.   

I am really enjoying the knife, I mean REALLY enjoying it.   Its by far my favorite which I have carried everyday since you gifted it to me.  It perfect sitting in my shirt pocket till I need it.   :salute:

Nix, thank you again very much.  I am very appreciative and blown away by how wonderful you are.   :salute:

ZDP takes a good strop to become wickedly sharp.  It came sharp but I couldn't leave well enough alone.  I've cut chicken, boxes, vinyl, plastic, duct tape, paracord, and a lot of other material with little effort.  Its still wicked sharp.

Aloha,  I'm stoked that the Dragonfly is working out for you. I think it's a great knife and great design. As I mentioned before, it's my wife's favorite--and she has stolen my last one!  :facepalm:

And don't worry, I'll make sure those flies get wet before I lose 'em in the sage or willows. I'll be sure to post up a pic of any fish caught with 'em, too.

It's been fun sharing a few knives and such with you guys!   :salute:

Glad I was able to wrestle this away from my roommate.  She's a tough gal and gave one hell of a tussle.  Ok I begged her and may have whined a bit for her to give it to me  :whistle:.  I'm good with that tho.  Its a great knife.  I sure hope you catch something with them or have fun trying.  Theres more than 20 so between the sage and willow and whatever else you've got a few to fool with.

Nice knife!

Spyderco's are easy to get through an online store here these days.
Might try one out.

I enjoy carrying Spyderco.  Lot of knife for the money.  I have 3 that see regular carry.  2 are Delicas and a Native.  The addition of the Dragonfly was one that I've considered now for a long time.  Its a great size for what I was looking for, shirt pocket carry.  My others Spyderco knives see work day carry.

Thanks, guys. Appreciate the kind thoughts, really. I'm just having some fun here. No big deal. This is a great group of people, and it's always fun to share the toys in the sandbox, especially if doing so brings a smile to someone's day...and no one gets cut (too badly) or loses an eye.  :cheers:

Not so; I can reassure you that I'm a normal (large-ish) human. But, I now have some suspicions that Mechanickal is an alien from outer-space. Keep an eye on him. Word to the wise.  :pok:

I am of the considered opinion that Nix is, in fact, an alien.

I don't expect you to take my denial of being extraterrestrial as a fact. After all, a clever Alien in disguise...say....somebody like Mechanickal, would deny being an Alien. So I will attempt to prove that I am not an Alien.

Hmmmmm..... :think:.....uhhhhhh...... :think:..... Got it!

I can honestly say that I eat and love Split Pea Soup (Erwtesoep). I make my own and can provide the recipe if called for. Now, have you ever heard of an Alien from outer space eating pea soup? No. Do Dutch people eat pea soup? Yes. Do Danish people eat pea soup? Yes. Do Swedes and Russians eat peas soup?  Yes. See? Normal people eat pea soup. Not Aliens. Therefore, I am not an Alien.

Let's apply this same test to somebody else...say.....Mechanickal.

Oh, Mechanickal, do you eat pea soup?

You can form all sorts of souperlatives...

And from now on modders will refer to peaning!

Peaning is souper easy when you've got a peaning hammer... I think...
