I'll be sending them to. They are a Marine reserve unit here in Broken Arrow.

How many Hobbit Hole pocket knives do they need?

If I may, if this is a BA CHEF group activity, might the members of BA CHEF contribute to buy knives to be sent with the Christmas cards?

When we've recieved requests for a whole unit's worth of knives lately, we've been asking those wives and point-people that are asking to please organize a fundraiser to pay for it. Especially because the most requested knives now are not the little $20 pocketknives.. they are the fancier sheath knives, for which winmag will have to give our current cost.... I don't know off hand.

I think BA CHEF is already getting my Marine speaker something...his wife is one of our members. It's part of benevolence and comes out of our dues.

I didn't mean to ask for knives...I only wanted to let Rick know that I didn't need the contact he mentioned a while back.

Everyone that made a Christmas card put their address on it. Maybe if they strike up a conversation with one of the Marines, they might be interested in the Hobbit Hole project and want to send a knife. I'll post the link in the egroup after I mail the cards.
