PBS Banquet Donations

AWESOME!!
Daryl, we need you back buddy.

OK, I have my eye on that Doug Campbell knife. It will probably cost me my "first born" at the auction, but I'm thing about it. I bid on the knife he donated for the banquet in Utah, but I needed at least a little money to get home, so someone else got it.
Just took another look at the PBS web site and the list of donations, and I would be surprised if this the end of them. This list is growing every day! Totally unbelievable! The members have really come through.
Can't believe it is 34 days, and counting!
See you there!

Steve, I just got an email from Doug last night. He sent a pic of the knife. AWESOME! He is working on the sheath and will be sending it to Dennis Filippelli "for your bidding enjoyment" very soon!

Here a pic till you see the real thing, Stevie's Ibex horn turned out pretty cool. Thanks

Jack Denbow · February 23, 2008, 12:02:00 PM

Oh WOW. I better bring extra money and a lot of it.
Jack

I'm afraid this knife is going to cost enough to test a good marriage! And I'd probably be in less trouble if I brought home another woman, but I'm thinking.
Thanks guys!

My wife just looked at that knife and said "Wow, that's cool." She wished you guys good luck but did not authorize me to bid

But I still can't wait to see it in person. Great work Doug!

Awesome knife...

Kevin Bahr · February 24, 2008, 12:27:00 PM

Ron, this knife is looking for a good home with a loving family...
Steve, it's only money...
You can make more money, might not see a knife like this for quite awhile. Doug might like Hawaii so much he won't come back to Montana! I'll still come and visit Doug!

Terry Green · February 24, 2008, 09:15:00 PM

Lookin good!

Forester · February 27, 2008, 06:08:00 PM

36 Bows, 15 Dozen Arrows, 11 Hunts and only 29 days to go....

Goose · February 27, 2008, 06:27:00 PM

And that is just part of the stuff!

Walt Francis · February 27, 2008, 06:42:00 PM

That is a pretty knife, wonder if I will have to pay as much for this one as I did for his knife in Salt Lake?

tippit · February 27, 2008, 07:08:00 PM

Walt, I wasn't at Salt Lake :D Doc

Goose · February 27, 2008, 07:25:00 PM

Walt,

You were bidding against me, at least part of the time! It got too rich for my blood (and wallet). See you in Pittsburgh!
Steve

Jack Denbow · February 27, 2008, 08:25:00 PM

I thought the Salt Lake knife was going to come home with me but I never got a chance to get my hand up before it was out of my league. I will be better prepared this time.

Walt Francis · February 27, 2008, 08:35:00 PM

Steve, I was surprised I got it for that price, Kevin was a little intox... uhm I mean loosened up at San Antonio and I think he paid quite a bit more for his then I did for mine. I barely got started bidding on that one before it was too high for me.

Jeff, like you, I have a couple of Doug's knives, even built one myself under his tutelage, but like nice bows you can't have too many . Now if one of your knives were to go up for auction, I'd have to save some of my money for that rather then Doug's; yours are harder for us Montanan's to acquire.

tippit · February 28, 2008, 04:19:00 PM

Walt, I was thinking the same thing...except I was thinking about Montana selfbows

Doc

Kevin Bahr · February 29, 2008, 07:39:00 AM

Walt, I prefer to call it "restraint challenged". My wife wishes they would cut me off before the auctions...ah, what the heck. It's only money and for a great cause.
Cool looking knife in your avatar, tippit! That almost looks like contraband Mongol Ibex horn on yours, too!

Kevin Bahr · March 03, 2008, 07:40:00 AM

We have gotten a Foley custom bow from Ron Foley donated...Thanks, Ron!
