What an awesome gift/momento. I'm sure you may have had a little to do with how your lads have turned outkickinback wrote: ↑Fri Jan 25, 2019 10:34 am Thankyou all for your birthday wishes. I’ve been pretty spoilt today.
Mitch organised this for me, hand crafted by a mate of his. The timber in the handle bought a tear to my eyes. It’s out of a slab my dad kept when he cut the plum tree down in their backyard 10 or so years ago. When we had to sell their house the slab was in the garage and Mitch asked if he could have it. He got it stabilised and it now adorns this beautiful knife. Theirs a piece of antler from one of his stags and a piece of 4000yo red gum that was felled by camel in his childhood.
I’m very lucky my wife raised the boys right.

I was too taken by the sentimental and truly special nature of this gift to comment on your own particular gift.
That was a particularly high quality Camel one liner
