I’d also ask for a proxy on the Boot Knife but I don’t want to displace ODog after he did me such a solid on another CPK! I’ll stand in line right behind him.
Ok, so.. @beattheheat was very gracious and offered to proxy for me on the BD. I've arranged to take that afternoon off, seems I'm not the only one losing sleep over this particular..this is a hot one, gonna be a dog fight..also very happy to read that daggers may be an irregular regular..We are fortunate that The Machinist likes daggers, for sure. With that stated, I'll try to land this bitch myself..or, run it straight into the ground, fireball and all...as I'm sure I will, to my demise, but in the words of Mr Plant..It will be nobodys fault but mine.. If I score, I score..if not, I'll get 'em next time. @beattheheat, I've left a message on your profile page w/ email.. was unable to PM or email..Please, sir..beg pardon and no offense intended..I will be available to take the shot..and if this frees up another proxy for someone else whom will not be available..then that's fair..I am capable. Slow, but capable.. I just wanted to declare prior to the sale, hoping I hear from @beattheheat..If I do not hear from him prior to the sale..I will not post a claim in the sale thread..Would not want to throw another monkey wrench in the works.. ~Patrick
Now that ODog has his proxy I’ll formally ask for someone with lightning-like abilities to proxy for me. I’ll most likely be stuck in trial. I haven’t been here for a little while and about did a backflip (figuratively speaking) when I saw that Nathan is making a dagger. Thanks for your kind consideration of this request.
Whoa! Pump the brakes! I think there are several of us ahead of you in requesting some assistance this week.
I didn’t mean to imply there isn’t a long line of folks with dagger desire. I’m just hoping to get lucky enough to find some charitable soul who already has their dagger(s) but loves the Friday challenge and paying it forward. Rare in society at large, but much more common among CPK users/collectors! Good luck all.
No worries, I was just giving you a hard time. Here’s to the CPK folks who help those of us unable to compete in the most contested sales, special souls they are!
Getting in the conga line for a proxy request for the BD tomorrow. Will be on the road for work on Friday and would appreciate the assistance.
Anybody with fast fingers/connection and a dagger already in hand? I can try from the road on my phone, but that never seems to get me in the running for these wild and woolly sales.
When I was looking to pick up my first CPK, it was going to be either an FK2 or a DEK1 and I was so back and forth that it didn’t really matter to me as they both get rave reviews. Well, it ended up being the FK2. Damn nice knives always make you want another! Long story short, I’d like someone to proxy me for a spot in the upcoming sale to try and get me one of the 3V DEK1’s. I’d like to go this route so that I can hopefully get one that I can add a swedge and choose my handle scales. Thanks for the consideration! (I work afternoon shift so most times I’m clocking in at 3pm and getting myself prepared)
You may want to check somethings out before hand by sending Jo a PM or an email (her email address is often stated at the end piece of Nathan’s Fridays sales threads): Options such as swedge and the “fancier” handle scales are often the kinda semi custom option which Nathan offers during his preorders. Unless specifically stated as available, you may not be able to add those requests to a DEK1 at the next Friday’s sale offerings. Best to check first and good luck with the proxy
The last DEK1 sale on Friday Feb 5th had swedged options available and a few handle scales listed with “other handle options available, inquire with Jo”. This next sale has some DEK1’s included so I figured the options would be the same since they seem to be making the pre-orders at the moment that had those features. To be safe though, I sent Jo a message, thanks!
Since there's no Boot Daggers in the next sale, I'll proxy for you if nobody faster than me will proxy for you.
Any speedsters out there not interested in a K18 blem? I’m driving to Charleston for a wedding and I’m totally willing to pull over and try myself, but a proxy would super rad!
