NEWS FLASH! Hobbit Hole knife project has surpassed 1,000 knives shipped to date!

Ping for a very successful FReeper troop support project. Though we are on hold from accepting new requests for knives till we catch up with the backlog, we are still ordering knives, and still accepting all the help we can get.

AM - can we have a jazzy new Headline? "Help us support our troops! [Knives for Soldiers] 1,000 shipped to date and counting!" or something like that?

I can't tell you how proud I am of being a small part of this project.

Even so, I'm ever prouder of our troops! :-D
