you meet some good folks here

Post by wabi »

Been a forum member for quite a few years now and I've met several people I respect and admire, but unfortunately have never met many face to face. :(

Most of the people here seem to be good folks, but every once in a while one really stands out.
Darrel (DaGriz) has turned out to be one of those, and I regret the fact he no longer feels welcome on this forum. :(

I got an email from Darrel recently asking for my mailing address. I figured he was like me and all too often forgets to update/backup his address book. :lol:

Imagine my surprise to receive a package in the mail today. He said he made a knife/fork set and this would be his one and only attempt at such a project.
He remembered I had said my son (Michael) loves camping, so he sent them to Michael!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stainless steel with UP whitetail deer bone handles (from a crossbow kill).

Darrel may never come back and post on the forum, but he's still one of the many friends I've made thanks to the Excalibur forum!!!!!!!!!!!

Darrell's got a heart of gold.

I have met a number of fine people here and da griz is amongst them. I bought a knife from him last year, as a gift, and it was beautiful. Darryl was great to deal with and patient with someone who didn't understand much (read "anything") about making knifes. I'm hoping he comes back.

I've always have said that I love this forum and I deeply miss the master knife maker. Those who pushed him away know who they are. :roll:
