JW_Halverson:
Hey cousin?  Not to put too fine a point on it, but ....

I want that freaking knife!!!

It would go nicely with the curly ash stocked .62 caliber flintlock I picked up last summer.  I love the simple utilitarian design of this style blade.  Good enough in the kitchen, good enough on the belt while trekking in the woods, good enough defending your point of view in a spirited back alley debate.

Can we make some kind of deal, cuz?

MWirwicki:
Holy Ginsu Batman!  That there is one fine lookin' knife.  Likely have to get in a long line to get a crack at that one!

Newindian:
Awesome knife, but I don't think we can take two halversons

Danzn Bar:
Now that craftmanship.... Love to be able to do that.
