Awesome touch for sure.

Time for me to recall what I can about a great weekend. The club didn't have the display area that had been available before, but Captain Stanaback acquired a room specifically for the member's displays. Having a room afforded us the opportunity to display our collections and enjoy each other's comraderie. It allowed Club members a place to wind down and get off their feet before going back out to tackle the show again. Saturday evening we had a great turnout at the Old South BBQ despite power outages and we were able to celebrate the birthday of Steve White, who has reached the big Seven-O!
Every year at BLADE the Randall Knife Collector's Club has a Saturday morning meeting to bring everyone up to speed on what's happening at the shop and what's new in the Randall world. This was one of the most special meetings ever, one I'll always remember. John Francis, son of David (Chief) Francis, is 15 years old, and turning out to be a fine young man. Unfortunately John was born without a right arm from the elbow down. Two of the Facebook Randall communities had come together and held auctions to raise funds for John, and to top it off Captain Stanaback donated a new model 3 hunter to be auctioned on the morning of the meeting. The winning bid of Five thousand dollars insured plenty of teary eyes in the meeting as a result, knowing that the Randall community came together to support such a fine young man. The word of the weekend was generosity. It really was a great weekend and I can't wait to see what comes next. It never ceases to amaze!

Happy Birthday again Steve. The good folks at Old South BBQ didn't let a little power outage slow them down even if the kitchen got a bit smokey

I don't have a photo of the BBQ. I was hungry.

Thought I would make it easier on the eyes, so I reduced down Scott's two photos.

Hope this helps,

A lot of legacy on display!
