LOL Murph, it ain't easy nowadays. There's pickers in town that can't make ends meet cause the business has stalled somewhat. Thank you Jerry, Big Monk and Murph! I have always had a strong feeling about these knives for the history involved in making them. I'm a big history buff. ::nod::

Hey Perry, that is a nice group! They look so great all lined up!
If I am not mistaken, that HJ1 has Buffalo Horn handles - the only one in existence!!

Yep, that's it Charlie. So proud to have that knife and show it to whoever comes by. They always say the same thing, "I can't believe that's the only one made!" I always say the same thing, "GIVE IT BACK NOW!"
