Sad, But Still A Find.

OK here's the cut down story. I met a friends father in law about 9 months ago, he was selling of some guns another friend bought. He was also a talented wood carver of decoys and leather worker when he had steady hands and better eyes. I asked when he was ready to sell the leather tools to call, he said I would get a call. He died 3 months ago and I figured that was the end, but his wife called the other day and said he was going to give them to me and she really wanted me to have them. So my buddy dropped the goods off last night, plenty of leather and 49 stamping tools. The only things ( I think) I need are a swivel knife, mallet and a piece if marble or granite. Oh yeah and the knowledge to use them. HAHAHAHAHA Guess I am going to have to start practicing. RIP and thank you.
