    Missing your January print issue? Please read on…

    By H. Clay Aalders January 18, 2021January 19, 2021

    Howdy folks. We are receiving scads of emails and calls from folks who have not received their January issue. We promise you it was sent. We have contacted our printer who assures us that they went out on time, and that there were no errors with importing the subscription database.

    The USPS is a mess right now. According to my local branch, there are many facilities which have multiple tractor trailers sitting in their lots unsorted. I sent my family’s Christmas gifts on 12/6 using Priority Mail. They arrived on 1/10.  And that was Priority.

    Magazines are shipped 3rd Class, which means they are at the bottom of the queue. We assure you your issue is on its way.

    In the mean time you have a couple of options. First, if you would like us to send you a fresh copy manually through First Class Mail, we can do that, but we ask that you give it until this Friday, Jan. 22, for your issue to arrive before requesting a new issue be sent.

    If you are willing to be patient, here is a digital copy to tide you over. Password is “ThanksUSPS”

    Protected: January 2020 issue (password required) for Print Subscribers

    Whatever you decide, please feel free to reach out to clay(at)knifemagazine.com, and I will see about helping you out.

    Thank you for your patience folks.

      Thanks Clay, Mark, Kim, Lisa and all you other folks working hard to keep us “Knife” people happy! The upside of the USPS being overwhelmed is that “junk mail” has been stifled, too. Good news for me is that I recently mailed a package 1st class to Puyallup Washington (yes, a knife) and it was received in three days! Possibly, a private contractor for the USPS flew a small plane from Hagerstown Regional Airport to Puyallup. . . with pit stops in Podunk, Indiana; Dry Gulch, Missouri; and Big Bear, Nevada; THEN a small parachute landed the package in the front yard. THREE DAYS! YES! Hocky

      Hocky, I think you should consider yourself among the lucky ones! I have a few knife packages to ship out and they’ve been sitting here for a few weeks now as I waver back and forth on the sensibility of mailing anything valuable at this time. Have had mostly good experiences with USPS over the years, but I’m on high alert right now…

      Mark: I hope to get “lucky” tonight with the MegaMillions! Odds in winning with a $2 ticket: 1 in 300,000,000 . . . Should I buy two tickets? Nah, it only takes one.

      Believe in Optimism and Enjoy Life , Hocky
