RTurbeville Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/06/05 Posts: 146	It looks like the forums will be coming to an end shortly. The server cost and needed maintenance has become an insurmountable obstacle. I have been putting in over $1500 a year out of my pocket each year and not looking to continue that this year. You are encouraged to save any post and pictures that are important to you. Thanks, Rick Edited by RTurbeville (01/17/21 03:04 PM) _________________________ Rick Turbeville RKS #4506

It is sincerely appreciated! I learned a ton about Randall knives from a great group of people. All the best, Tom _________________________ Tom RKS #4233
