Tippit,
Jeff, it is I that should be thanking you. Being shown such generosity and hospitality form someone you look up to means so much. New friends, good food, bows, knives, and flyrods; what more could a guy ask for.
I look forward to making a few more 2 hour drives in the future to see my new friend and SC hunting partner. It will be even better when you get the forge set up. I will take you up on your offer for sure.
The knife has quickly become my favorite and you know that I am not knife poor. Most I have I would sale but this one will never leave me. Thank you so much and I look forward to seeing you and your better half again.
