Spencer,
Happy New Year my friend!
I worked yesterday until 23.00 hours to get the Hornet XL Micarta ready for shipping. Man, I really work my butt off to get the knives out.
As I promised you, EACH knife goes through my hand: Do some extra finish work here and there, get the lanyard on, control overall fit and finish, control the sharpness, sign the quality control certificate, ... But I love it. It was always my dream to run my own knife company. I do have your No. 1 in both versions and I will bring them to Orlando. Tomorrow the first Hornet will go into the mail.
Again, all the best for you and your family in 2009.
Your German buddy
Dietmar
