Evenin' Ruthy!

It is very easy to get totally lost in time looking at that wedding album! Very special memories there. :-)

Yup. It was truly one of the best times of my life.

I got another email today from another recipient of our Hobbit Hole knives. He's a USAF Master Sergeant, currently stationed in a country that cannot be named. Here's his email.

Rick,

A couple people over here noticed the knife you gave me, and wanted to know how they might go about getting one? Or a few to pass out to deserving young troops?

If you can get me four, that'd be great: one each for Airman, NCO, Sr NCO and Jr Officer of the Month Award winners.

Thank you. And send thanks to the rest of the Hobbit Hole gang.

Now that I think of it, our Hobbit Hole knives are both aptly designed, and named. Small, unassuming, often unnoticed. Yet they have a hidden strength, and can perform mighty deeds when called upon.

We give them out as simple tokens of appreciation, like a handshake. Yet our finest fighting forces consider them awards to be given out for special achievements.
