So while at the DSC convention this year I picked up two really cool items! Or at least I think they are?
A Sterling Silver flask by Westley Richards! Very cool! The nicest hip flask I have ever seen!!!
Though I’m not sure of the practicality as all the small scratches that you see in it were just by trying to take finger prints off with an eye glass cloth! It’s a flask who cares right lol

But the big find for me was the Ashtray! Holland & Holland had requested an ashtray to be made for them by Limoges…
Limoges made them one by the artist shown on the backside of the ashtray and it’s gilded in gold and numbered!
Holland & Holland agreed to have Limoges make them a very small, limited numbered addition of these ashtrays and brought the first one to DSC to show them off!
Well after antagonizing the H&H VP of NA he sold me this one off, prototype tray! Don’t ask me how much lol But it is like their firearms a work of art!!!
As You can see #1!

well who knows in a few more years they might be worth so much more!!!
 
Where on earth was there a booth selling cool things like that?
 
Yes, where was that? I did not see any ash trays. That is an excellent find. I am very jealous.

Hallo Marius- do you have possibilities for stags in September during the roar? Where are your hunting areas in Romania?

I'm about ready to pull the trigger on another rifle but would love to see your rifle first, any way you could forward a pic or two?
Thanks,

Love your rifle! I'm needing a heavier rifle for Africa. Sold my .375 Dakota Safari several trips ago. Would you have any interest in a trade of some sort involving the custom 338/06 I have listed here on the site ( I have some room on my asking price. I also have a large quantity of the reloading components and new Redding dies as well as a box of A-Square Dead Tough ammo.
