Title: Ok, need some ideas here...
Post by Melissa on Dec 7^th, 2007, 9:41am

I want to pick everyone's brains here. ;;D My 10th wedding anniversary is coming up on Jan. 30th and I want to get Jesse something really special. I was thinking about getting some sort of Buck figurine with our names and the date we were married engraved into it, or put on a plaque and attatched to it. Anyone know of ANYWHERE that would do something like that?

I'm looking to spend $200 or less.

Help!!! Any ideas would be appreciated, especially from the guys, I'd like to know what you would think is a special anniversary gift.....other than sex, LOL!

:)

Ok, I found a pocket knife that I'm going to have engraved for him (he's a man who ALWAYS carries a pocket knife) and now I'd like to find him a special Buck figurine/picture/plate or something unique & special.

Mike, what about this knife? http://www.personalizationmall.com/Product.aspx?storeID=0&productID=5218 Do you think it'd be too cheap of material?

Ooooo, an engraved filet knife would be even better! Or a high quality filet knife in an engraved box!

I'm liking this a lot!!

Scratch the buck idea, I think I'll just go with the knife. :)

Keep both ideas (sort of) and get him a Buck knife, then engraved.

Ok, phew! All done! :D And it's beautiful! Good thing I did it now because custom orders take 4-6 weeks. Here's a pic of what it'll look like with J & M 1-30-98 engraved on the blade...

Do you have a Things Remembered store there? They engrave everything they sell.

Also, do you have a Pro Bass store? If it has anything to do with fishing they have it and can order engraving.
