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

Very sad to hear, Rick, but understandable. Thank you for hosting and supporting the forum for all of these years. It is sincerely appreciated! I learned a ton about Randall knives from a great group of people.

All the best,
Tom

now that I think about it....this site never should have been free to begin with!!
I have no issue with paying for a service that I use....I'm sure most others don't as well
There has to be some way to to continue this site....it's far to valuable to loose...
