Corporate hunting-collectibles table meeting. Thursday afternoon.

You're holding this vintage Buck Knives enamel lapel pin — deer / bucks locking antlers graphic, Buck Knives logo, gold-tone border, and proper old outdoorsman advertising badge energy.

A guy notices it immediately while pretending to understand knife collectibles. He asks if that's Buck Knives. You ignore him. Six minutes later he appears near the table and asks again, this time whispering "deer pin" like one little enamel badge just opened a sporting goods counter in 1994. You continue walking. By lunch he's recruited two knife collectors, a hunting memorabilia guy, and one man who keeps saying "bucks fighting" like the pin is about to settle a dispute in the parking lot.

They're standing around the pin like they're deciding whether the entire display should be reorganized by hunting brands, outdoor gear logos, deer graphics, and old counter-display confidence.

Nobody remembers what they came in for.

The Buck Knives pin has become the gear counter.

Preston Turdsworth picked this up, saw two bucks locking antlers, and became convinced the pin was showing a knife-company board meeting. He asked which deer owned the factory, checked the back for a pocketknife, then wondered if Buck Knives hired actual bucks for quality control. The sporting goods counter revoked his catalog.

I needed to be somewhere else.

So I went straight to Dorsia. I ordered antler-locked quail over enamel-logo gravy with pickled hunting-counter onions, smoked knife-display dust, and a tiny deer-shaped crisp the waiter described as "outdoorsy but aggressively branded." The waiter nodded once and said, "Excellent choice, sir."

I picked this up right before some bozo did.

Shipped right — packed like a collectible advertising pin, not tossed loose into a mailer to scratch itself into a bad tackle box story.

Comes from a smoke-free lair.
