Well Mr. Harsey I wanted to post MY favorite picture of your fine knife designs. Mine [Yarborough] is 1799 and was put "on lay-away" at my Sage graduation 22Aug03 and was reunited with me at my SERE graduation a few months later... dang SWCS tricks.

I'm proud to be a member of the Special Forces brotherhood and was honored to be bestowed the latest symbol of the men who don the green beret. "Thank you" to yourself and Mr. Reeves for the design and production of such a worthy combat knife!

Thumbs up

And it is not only to the members of this board... my son carries a very special momento of his 19th birthday thanks to you Bill.

The cool thing about all this is that you have nothing to "live up to"...except for being yourself.

We like ya just the way you are

Thank you for all that you've done and do, Mr Harsey! Also, for putting a smile on FS. You two make me happy.

The Lady of the Lake presented the works of an Avalonian elf smith to King Arthur, a sword like no other, known as Excalibur.....

May the New Year be prosperous for the "Avalonian elf smith" responsible for the presentation of.... a knife like no other, known as the Yarborough.

And may the Yarborough serve those who have earned the right to possess it...as Excalibur served King Arthur.

You know, I suspect that Mr. Harsey has been called many things in his years, but probably never an elf before.
