Good morning Kevin!!!

I received my order yesterday and can't be more pleased with #1)
the quick turnaround time and #2) the quality of the cases.

It's nice to see people taking pride in their work and turning out a
quality made American product.

Thanks again,

Steve

=============================================================
Keith,
Of course you can post my note on your site.

An additional note on the Marble's matchsafe: I carried that as my emergency supply
and, as luck would have it, never had an emergency that warranted dipping into it.
The matches were waterproofed by painting with clear nail polish.

I was looking at it one day and wondered if they were still good. I took out one
of the 50-year-old matches and dropped it into a glass of water, letting it sit for
about 5 minutes before taking it out and striking it. It lit on the first try and burned
down to the now-soaked unpainted base. I think we can safely say that matches
so treated and stored in an air-tight container will be there when you need them.

I also have a Marble's button compass from the same era with the brass case
I carry in my pocket survival kit. I'll probably take that out now that I have an excellent
compass in the match case.

I also had a Woodcraft knife, but that was stolen. For 3 years I was the Campcraft
Director of Camp Glen Gray in Oakland, NJ, teaching leatherwork, wood carving
and the like. I had a display board showing some of my own work and the knife
was stolen from the sheath. It still bothers me that a Scout would steal from me.

Glen Gray is still around

http://www.glengray.org/

But it's no longer a scout camp.

Take care,
Ralph DeCamp

Keith: Yesterday I received the three brass match cases and could not be
more pleased. I have carried various match cases starting in the boy scouts
and continuing through my years in the Army, hunting, fishing and camping and
none compare with your product. The quality of your case far superior to any
case I have used or those on the market today.

I do have one suggestion. I noted in your little booklet that you stress the length
if the match must not allow the head to touch the plug. I fully understand the
reason for your cautionary note, but believe that if you were to add a wafer
of rubber to either the base of the plug (with glue) or better yet the bottom of
the tube and load the matches so the heads would face the rubber wafer it
would eliminate the potential of an accidental ignition. I believe the plug at the
bottom of the tube and the match heads loaded downward would be the bast
approach since it would avoid the eventual failure of a wafer glued to the plug.

You product is fantastic, so please accept my suggestion as something
that might provide an improvement to what is already a great outdoor tool.

Again, thanks for making this wonderful product.

Keith,

In my life I have owned a few things (VERY few things) that I consider to be
the best ever made of their type. These match cases are in that category.
I'll hang on to the Marble's matchsafe I've carried for more than 50 years as a
keepsake, but one of the K&M cases will be with me from now on.

Thanks,
Ralph DeCamp

=============================================================

Dear Keith and Marge,

If my humble words can be of any sevice to you, please feel free to use them.
I dipped the ends of some non-safety matches in candle wax and have put them
into the case. Yesterday, I took the case (I did choose the brass one in the end!)
for a walk in the woods and couldn't resist the temptation to give it a try. The
match flared beautifully against the knurled side of the case. I love the compass,
too - a wonderful and actually very useful feature.

Be warned: there will in all probability be another order coming along soon.
Christmas is coming and I have nephews to buy for!

Very best wishes,
Richard

Greg;
The following letter was written to a long time friend a week ago to
explain what's been happening around here for the last month so rather
than start from scratch we'll just make a form letter out of it. Your cases are
packaged and will ship Monday the 28th. Thanks much for your patience. KL

Good news. Not yet but will go out tomorrow. Don't know if you keep an
eye on the weather out here but we've been trying to keep from getting buried
under one snow storm after another for almost a month - 4 1/2' so far.
That's not an unusual amount of snow for us but the temps have been cold
enough that it won't slide off the roofs so has to be dealt with one shovel
full at a time. Last Sunday I went out at 3:00 AM to check my shop (with 10"
of new snow on top of the 4' already there) and found 2 broken rafters so
started shoveling immediately and called my sons later in the morning for
help. We got it off without losing the whole building but have been helping
others in town deal with the same problem. Just keeping a place to park
open has been a challenge as we're running out of places to put the stuff.

Got the computer back from the factory about the 1st of the year and tried it
right away but it appeared to have destroyed the programs so tried for
2 weeks to find a programmer to start over, finally found one who could
help but then decided to see if even one of the original programs might
have survived the crash. Got the factory brain on the phone Friday to help
me search and fortunately we found at least one that did, so was able to
copy and modify instead of having to start from scratch, which is a very
time-consuming and expensive process. Saturday evening I got my first
good matchcase in over a month and it's a long version so will be cranking
out many more today if all goes well. If you're a man of prayer you might
send one up!

Without question this has been our most frustrating experience with our
equipment in 15 years. Because I'm not in the least bit computer literate and
because we live in such a remote area it's especially frustrating trying to
find help when it dies. Add the fact that programmers always seem to be
behind in their regular jobs and you almost have to offer them a bribe to
get them out here. Fortunately we skated by this time.

Please accept my sincere apologies for the inconvenience but know
that we're doing the best we can under the circumstances.

God bless, Keith

Hi Greg;
Thanks for taking the time to write such a nice letter about our
product. I tease Marge about being a Clara Smith

Hi Steve;

We have long and short brass in stock and I plan to run alums this week.
Turnaround time on anodizing usually runs 1 to 2 weeks. We are in an
ongoing weather situation here that has forced us to spend a lot of time
shoveling snow off of roofs so have fallen behind some.
Hopefully we've turned the corner.

Thanks for the inquiry; Keith

Well we did our trip again, weather started out at +22.f with a good forecast
and we had a nice camp, and all of our holes drilled for fishing, things went
great!! Then the weather changed fast! We started to get a harsh n.w. wind
and driven snow, wind speeds went to 35-45 m.p.h. the temp dropped
to-24.f at this time we were on the lake, and ended up in a white out!
about 4:00pm I knew it would not let up, and ended up leaving a three mile
long lake using your excellent match case /compass heading due n./n.w and
landed at our camp off by only150-200 yds! The wind blew non stop full gail
for 32 hrs! when the wind finally ended the temp. plunged to -.37.f this trip
turned out to be a survival trip.. I'm just glad the tent stayed together
.. p.s no cell phone coverage and 18 miles of forest rd. just to get to pavement!!
We ended up hunkered down for the next day and a half because the weather
was to exreme to even attempt to get out!

Anyway, my buddy wants to order a short brass matchcase (told you so) and with
the order 4 extra lanyards, 4 sets of o-rings, and 4 extra rubber compass caps
please send me a quote with shipping to virginia, mn 55792, thank you, brent!!

You are more than welcome to use my letter on your site and if you need to
edit or combine the two letters that is fine because the stories are as true
as the day is long!! also if you do not mind I would like to post pics/story
of your fine matchcase on a VERY REPUTABLE forum, just let me know... thanks
again for a awesome survival product!!!

Hi Keith and Marge.

Just wanted to send a note to you about your product.

I have an older model, Double O-ring, blue outer ring on the compass, red triangle for North, bottom marked "Troy ID USA", No name on the compass.

Not sure what year that equates to, but it has been in my kit for a pretty long time. I have often said I felt comfortable just about anywhere with nothing but your match case and a decent knife.

I use this case all year round. Camping all through the summer, kayaking year round and hunting in the winter. I have never had a situation where it failed. It has been dropped, immersed and left on the picnic table during downpours with no ill effects. I will be buying a few more in the near future as presents.

Thanks for providing such a robustly engineered product. Your attention to detail and function is much appreciated.

By the way, I am an ASQ Certified Quality Manager so I am well aware of what it takes to provide an item of this quality. To do so at this price point is nothing short of incredible.

Kindest Regards,


Carl W. Keller


Second post/msg 2: Tom Hellmich's first time ... regarding match cases and K & M match case.

October 6, 2006

Keith,

Thanks again for the K&M Fire Sticks and leather belt pouch.  What a great idea!  I will
use them on my next camping trip along with my matchcase.

Enclosed is a knife lanyard that I tied for you.  It is a different twist on carrying a compass
and fire starter together.  I keep my lanyard clipped to a Swiss Army Knife, which includes
a wood saw.  When together, the knife and lanyard make a very compact survival set.

Also, enclosed is the information on the SAS mini compass that we discussed.

Best regards,



"Somebody finally got it right."

K&M Matchcases
"I posted this reply in another thread that was asking about the quality of the Liberty Mountain (Olicamp) matchcase. I thought I would post my reply here as well...

For what it's worth, don't waste your time on any other matchcase except the one from K&M.
I'm a matchcase freak who has considered all of them and the K&M is by far the best on the market. The quality and workmanship is outstanding for the price. The design is simple and 100% reliable. The case body is machined from solid bar stock. And it's made is the USA!

I have two matchcases. One in brass which is heavy, but absolutely gorgeous and one in plain, brushed aluminum (not anodized) which is light, but still very tough. The plain aluminum matchcase had to be special ordered.

My brass matchcase is several years old and has a luminous Brunton compass. My new aluminum matchcase has a beautiful, blue faced, non-luminous Suunto compass. Both are very high quality and accurate.
 
K&M is now using O.D. military spec cord which is tighter woven than the old cord and doesn't seem to snag as easy on the case knurling.

If you order from their website the price is $19.00 plus $4.05 shipping. If you give Keith a call @ 208-826-3447 and order direct, the price is $15.00 plus $4.05 shipping. Not sure why.

Trust me, you can't go wrong with a K&M Matchcase!

Dear Keith,

Enclosed please find $44.05 for one each long and short match case in natural brass (including $4.05 shipping). If you need a reference, the order was placed via phone on May 8th.

I very much appreciate your willingness to go ahead and ship them to me "on faith" while I sent this payment. Business people like you folks are tragically less common than they used to be.

-My friend in the UK should be very happy. Take care and thank again!

Sincerely,



James L. Gibbons

Matchcase endorsement 9 - Charles Eastman: "Thank you very much for a very quality match case."


Mr. and Mrs. Lunders,

Thank you very much for a very quality match case. I’ve looked high and low for a product even close to this, so this is even better than expected! I will carry a small survival kit in it every day while flying over Iraq – thank you for a product that allows me to do that confidently! Take care.



Sincerely,

Charles Eastman
