A fellow HSB memeber recently sent me this engraved knife as a token of his appreciation of all things HSB related. This is definately one of the coolest gifts I’ve recieved and just in time for my birthday no doubt. Yes folks, today I turn the big 2-5 – let the celebrating begin! Actually, probably won’t do much until this weekend – Tuesdays are not the best party night of the week.
But this knife it really, really cool – and it’s 1 of 1 – the only Hot Sauce Blog Knife in existence! 🙂 A big public chilehead thank you to the reader that sent this in.

Happy B-day Nick!
HBD on the HSB…. ah, to be 25 again:)
Happy Birthday Nick!! Ya Punk!
Hey Tracy! Your stuff is on its way:)
Happy Birthday Nick! You’re cake is on it’s way! You have definately accomplished a lot for only being 25, keep up the good work.
Happy Birthday my friend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy Birthday BlogMaster!!!
Happy Birthday from the crew here at Defcon HQ!
Happy Birthday, Nick!!!
Happy Birthday from Danny Cash Corporate Headquarters! Your car insurance just went down, man! That was the last thing you had to look forward to and now it’s over. You probably don’t even own a car living in Manhattan.
Happy Birthday Nick! Although I usally don’t like any one that much younger then I. But, being I met you first, I will forget you are 16 years younger then me! Hope you wippersnapper has a great day!
“Hope you wippersnapper has a great day! ”
Dude, Jodie, want to explain that?? LOL

First, Lee, I am a Dudette! 😉 LOL I was just making fun of him. A “whippersnapper” (maybe I spelled it wrong, is what the old folk call, or used to, us younger folk. (Although I was getting my drivers permit when Nick was born!) I am surprised you never heard that phrase before!
Happy Birthday Nick! 25?! No offense, but I thought you were older than me (being a respectable business man and all). Well, you’ve managed to live a quarter century. May the next quarter century be as fruitful as the last. Have a good one and keep on rock’n!
[Comment ID #24425 Quote]Sorry, Dudette.
I have heard that phrase before, just never with sexual connotations, you perv.
The Luna-tics at Loco Luna Gourmet Foods wish you a festive birthday!
Thats my favorite knife! I have one and gave one as a gift, its Kershaw Leek, with speedsafe. Very sweet, how do i get one thats engraved like that?! woo
http://www.kershawknives.com look under pocket knives, and the ken onion section.
🙂 !Happy Birthday Nick! 🙂
Nice knife too. Is it signed and numbered by the sender or is that a secret?
seems to be a secret for now…but even if it’s not signed and numbered it’s a pretty unique gift to receive. HAPPY BIRTHDAY NICK.
Happy Birthday Nick!! You should start the celebrating today, do a sort of Nick-fest, a little party/celebration each day leading up to a big blow out on the weekend. You deserve it, you seem to work really hard and have your hands in a lot of projects- savor and enjoy it!!!

Definately a unique gift!!
Happy B-day. That is a great knife (even better with HSB on it). Kershaw makes an awsome product. I use a few Ken Onion designed chef knives for special events (not daily line abuse). I love them.
Great gift idea! Looks good as well. Happy Birthday man! You have done quite well it seems for the first 25 so keep on!!!
Happy Birthday Nick. My gosh you’re only 25 and look what you have accomplished so far – truly remarkable.
Unlike Jodie I am not going to state exactly how many years older than you I am – Let’s just say I have a son your age and leave it at that.

I think he already had his “big blowout” last Saturday if you get my meaning.

Whenever I think “whipper-snapper” I think dominitrix.
Thanks everyone! I’ll drink one for you all!
No, you’ll have one drink for EACH of us!
Wishing you the Best on the Big 25! As I have commented before, you deserve to be credited for your unselfishness promotion of Hot Sauce & spicy product Manufacturers.
You are a Hot Sauce ambassador of Goodwill to all that are spicy food afficionado’s

I noticed the one that Blair had listed on his site is no longer listed for sale. Could this be the magic bottle?
[Comment ID #24558 Quote]
He has always has a pic there but it has been sold out for years. Jim Cambell actualy boght all the last bottles a few years back. This one is in the possesion of a private collector.

Thank you all for the well wishes – I’ll be doing some serious celebrating this weekend, so I’ll keep you in mind when I’m hitting the bars!

I knew you guys were realy “suits”!!! Trying to throw us off with that mohawk and dyed hair. Just wolves in sheeps clothing!!! Shame on you, and shame on us for buying into it!!!
Corporate Headquarters!!! I can’t believe it!!!
[Comment ID #24671 Quote]
That was basically it Creator, one for me and one for my homie’s
The Cash boys “Corporate HQ”?!! What, you guys got chauffers or something now also? Next thing we know, you’ll be having ‘minions’ doing your work for you 😛
[Comment ID #24763 Quote]
They are coming to Ft Worth in a “Corporate” class 1 RV!!!
Hey Jim, not to go off topic, but I got those pics you mailed me, thanks a bunch 😉 guess I’ll hang em tomorrow when I get to work.
[Comment ID #24758 Quote]Shhhhh. Down with the establishment, and all that. Now, back to my expense report…
[Comment ID #24763 Quote]Minions? Wouldn’t that be sweet! No employer taxes or workers’ unions, just blind obedience. Oh yeah.
[Comment ID #24767 Quote]
Ooooooh! Chris! I forgot to mail that thing to you! Dude I’m so sorry! It’ll be in the mail tomorrow!!!!!!!
[Comment ID #24781 Quote]
Ahhhh, blind obedience, what a beautiful thing. I prefer the term Acolyte than Minion, it makes the underling sound so much more important. 🙂
[Comment ID #24806 Quote]
Check you email Creator 🙂
Huv, send it to the ‘defconcreator’ address…I will be phasing out the AOL account soon, thank God.
25??? I have step-children older than you!
Happy Birthday!
