Re: British Hong Kong
Wow, Kart. British Hong Kong. That's a piece of history right there.
In some ways the size and to some extent the isolation (geographically) of the U.S., keeps us insulated from the rest of the world, especially when it comes to consumer goods. Thanks for the opportunity to see that knife. I appreciate it.
And before I forget my manners, welcome to AAPK.

This country has become more about sub-groups than about it's unity as a nation.

Kart welcome to AAPK.
That looks like a well made knife from what I can tell in the pictures.
Have you used it ? And if so, how did it hold and edge?

Re: British Hong Kong
Thanks for the suggestions, gentlemen.
The knife I personally have not used yet in the collection.
Solidly assembled, I think the normal stainless steel ...

Welcome Kart, and thanks for showing your knife.
Isn't that a Union Pacific Railroad logo?

Texoma, TX is so far north in the panhandle of Texas, it sits astraddle of the Texas / Oklahoma border with a Union Pacific line running right through the middle of it. A little research reveals Texoma may no longer be a Service Unit (Union Pacific has 21 Service Units).
