What knife making presents did you get?

What did Santa bring you to help make knives?

He brought me one of these. Just need to order a swag table to go with it.

Thank you for saying so. I did one thing right. I fell in love with a wonderful woman who truly loves me. This time last year I was in the hospital with a brain bleed. I only had a 30 percent chance of surviving. I was in the hospital for Dec 12 through Dec 28th. She left my side for a total of three hours. I am blessed with a woman that unconditionally loves me and showered me with gifts for a hobby I love. She is a true angel. This haul doesn't compare to the blessing she has been for the last 27 years. Merry Christmas.

You are truly blessed. A good loving wife is the second best thing that can ever happen to a man.
Wife and I are dead center of year 41, and thank the Good Lord everyday.
We've gotten to the point that we really don't gift much on Christmas, since we do it all year long.
Just a good fire, some nog and a few close friends top off a quiet Christmas night is the best part (after a morning of grandkids chaos).

Very useful tool Ricky.

I think we are all blessed with ladies that can put up with us. My wife and I are on year 25 and she has been with me through 2 heart attacks and a minor stroke. Our Xmas is like Crex, we don't exchange and make sure the kids enjoy life as we have. Except this year she broke our rule and got me a new
Carhartt thermal work coat to work in my shop this winter.

Amen to the blessing of a wonderful wife. We agreed not to buy each other a gift. We each buy what we want.

All 4 Atoma diamond plates and another supply of Rynowet Redline. My dad got me a nice bench vice (been getting by using c clamps).

Truly blessed to have the wonderful family that I do.

My wife and are in year 27. We don't normally buy presents like we did this year. We are blesses. We are celebrated the first Christmas in 2 years. I was supposed to be blind(my vision center in my brain was destroyed. I was not expected to walk and be weak on my left side forever. But God new better. A year ago today they planed for me to go to rehab for 2 to three months. A year ago tomorrow (on the 28th) I walked on my own power to my house. After six months and two operations I see better than when I was 20. We also gave money to Wounded Warriors and other charities. We were blessed to bless others.
