There are good people left!
« on: July 21, 2007, 09:47:00 AM »
A while back I was surfing **** and ran across a really neat quiver the seller called it a BISON STALKING SIDE QUIVER.  I didn't win, so I contacted the seller directly.  She did have another quiver, so I bought the quiver.  The quiver never arrived in the mail.  I emailed the seller, she said she would make another and ship it out.  So began a several month long delay in getting the quiver due to the seller being unable to make the second quiver for personal reasons.  She was very upset about the deal and aplogized profusely.  I kept trying to tell her to relax we would work this out and deer season was a long way off.  I finally got the quiver in the mail.  It is the neatest quiver I've ever seen.  All traditional using carved antler and nice leather with excellent workmanship (workwomanship?).  Here is a pic  

As a surprise the seller included this knife made by her husband from a saw blade.  The knife has Osage handle and was very sharp.  It will be the knife I use this season.  All of the folks I've shown the knife think it is a very nice knife.  

 
After I thanked her for the knife I told her I had seen and drooled over knifes like this on a tradional Archery board.  Then I found out the seller was Shell and her husband is Sticshooter
here on TRADGANG.  There are good people left in the world, and two of them are right here on Tradgang.  Thanks Shell and Sticshooter.

You are a lucky man... and they are some first class people I hear a lot of good things about and who I'd love to meet someday.
You've got a great story (to go with a beautiful quiver and surprise knife.) Congratulations!

Wow, that's amazing!  As I read your story and looked at the pictures I was thinking to myself "that sounds like and looks like something Shell and sticshooter would do"....
Only after thinking that did I read the last line of your post and realized that is exactly who it was!  Very cool!  And a great looking quiver and knife too!    :thumbsup:

Not to minimize the wonderful jesture...but just one more example of what Trad people are like. I've met the best and nicest people since I got back into traditional archery about 10 years ago. I feel better with a trads word and/or handshake than the best written contract money can buy. Since day one I've felt like I just came home after being really lost for a long time. I hope you will ALL accept my thanks for keeping it alive.

Can't swing an arrow without hitting a good person in here. Shell and Frank are certainly two of them!
