Thread: Just too cool!

The elderly gentlemen (80+) that lives across from us came over this evening to show me a J. A. Henckels that belonged to his dad. Let me back up just a sec, Monday he was going to attempt to put up a section of gutter on his trailer and I simply told him that I was going to do it. So I spent a couple of hours, mostly talking with him and, putting up his gutter. So now, this evening I looked at the Henckels that was truly in remarkable shape. I told him so. I told him that Henckels was a blade that was on my "to get" list. He simply said, "take it, I'll never use it." Wow! I'll put some custom scales on it this weekend, do a little polishing, hone it and treasure it for years.

There ya go. Kindness repaid by kindness. well done on all levels

Just goes to show that value is subjective. I'm looking forward to seeing some pictures.

Good for you helping your neighbor out like that!
You don't expect any repayment for a good deed but it sure is nice when something does come back to you.

Scott & Steve,
Thanks for the words. These people are just the sweetest couple! Occasionally we get to just sit on the porch with them and chat. For him to give me something that belonged to his father still has me speechless.
