A Well Dressed Bullet; unique gifts for hunters, police officers, military personnel, and those hard to buy for

We are a small "Mom and Pop" operation and we have been in business since 1983, operating as Katick Supplies. By the way, Katick is a portmanteau formed from Kathy and Rick. We operate our website and online stores under A Well Dressed Bullet. Face it, our business name Katick Supplies is easily forgotten and often misspelled.

We have been happily married for over 34 years and live in the small community of Spanish, located in Northeastern Ontario between Sudbury and Sault Ste Marie, situated on the North Channel of Lake Huron.

In 2001, we got a little tired of retirement, but we did not want to start another retail store and the internet suited our needs perfectly. Rick always enjoyed making his Bullet Pens and we thought the internet would be a great way to sell them. We knew this would be so different from operating a retail store which we closed when we retired in 1992. We had to learn all about computers, e-commerce, the new lingo, website designing and html and after four months figured it all out, well almost, and we created our website and started selling our Authentic Bullet Pens on-line in August 2001.

We make a great team. Rick being the artistic and production side, thinks up, designs and manufactures our products. Kathy, that's me, is the administrative side and webmaster, I run the office, make sure the orders get to our customers, that all the figures add up and maintain our website and online stores.

We both share the housework and grab meals when we can. Read more....

Thank you for dropping by.

Kathy & Rick
(and don't we make a cute couple?)

We were so surprised, and kinda proud, when Dan (writer) from the head office of Maxim Magazine in New York City contacted us in 2004.

Dan, working on a story for military gear converted into various gadgets, was browsing the internet and found our website, intrigued with our Shotgun Shell Bar & Party Lights.

Ok, I have to admit, when his email first came in, I ignored it. Imagine my surprise when he called several days later. I was sure it was some sort of scam. I'm so glad I didn't hang up on him! Needless to say, our website received some great exposure.

Editors Note: When Rick's friends found out we were going to be featured in Maxim, they thought it was me who was being featured * blush *

BRASS PRODUCTS

We suggest using Nevr-Dull Magic Wadding Polish which consists of a unique non-scratching wadding impregnated with a special polishing solution. It is perfect for cleaning and polishing brass, and safely removes tarnish and fingerprints.

Simply remove a piece of wadding from the can and gently rub it thoroughly over the surface to be polished.

Give brass a wipe afterwards with a clean dry cloth (optional - lightly spray cloth with a lubricant, such as WD-40) to remove any excess Nevr-Dull and to give it a nice shine.

NICKEL PRODUCTS

There is very little cleaning required with nickel products, but you may wish to touch them up every so often. Lightly spray a soft cloth with a lubricant, such as WD-40, and wipe the cases gently. This will remove any dirt and give them a nice shine.

Please keep in mind that excessive cleaning (rubbing) of nickel cases can remove the nickel finish.

EAGLE / STAR PRODUCTS

Please note for our American Eagle, Texas Star or Scalloped Stars on our Fancy style belt buckles, the antique silver and gold plating is very thin, use care and avoid excessive polishing or buffing.

SHOTGUN SHELL PRODUCTS

For products using the brass heads (ends) of a shotgun shell, follow the instructions for Brass Products.

For products using a full or mini shotgun shell hull, lightly spray a soft cloth with a lubricant, such as WD-40, and wipe the plastic hulls gently to give them a nice shine.

BOLO TIE CORDS

We recommend gently wiping cord by hand with a clean damp cloth and to keep the cord fresh smelling, lightly spray the cord with Febreze Fabric Refresher.

Clean the brass or nickel cases as described above. Be careful not to get any WD-40 or Nevr-Dull on the cord.

HOW TO STORE A BOLO TIE

The best way to store your Bolo Tie is by hanging it on a tie rack, over a peg, or by laying it out straight and flat on a clean surface. The cords usually always have a "memory" and will look best if stored in a nicely aligned position rather than curled up. When you first receive your Bolo Tie, as it has been folded in its package, the cord will have retained a folded memory. Immediately remove your Bolo Tie from the package and hang it up straight.
