Well I came home today and to my surprise I have an envelope from QTcut5! ::ds:: QT had seen a picture I had posted earlier that I took on my Hawaiian mouse pad and with him being from HI he had to find out more about me. He sent me a PM and we found out that he used to live in the same Bay Area town as me when he was a kid. Both my wife and father were born on Kauai but I was born on the mainland but definitely have the Aloha spirit. Long story short he said he was going to send me a little something and needless to say I am ecstatic about it. It is a beautiful Frost Copperhead with gorgeous Scrimshawed bone handles! Brah you are the bomb, I can't thank you enough for such a beautiful gift!
Aloha, ::handshake::

My memory is pathetic. I got so wound up with the rehandle Dale sent to me, I neglected mentioning the other item that was in the package. He also sent this little Pacific Rim USMC Mini-Ka-Bar style fixed blade. It's just as cute as a bugs ear and even though it's origin is a Pacific Rim country, I like it quite a bit. Check it out. The blade is 4¾" and the total length is 8½". As you can see the handle is hollow and in addition to the little compass in the butt cap, there is a little tube containing some matches, a striker, some nylon (?) line and a fish hook.
Thank you Dale. Very thoughtful of you.

Rolled up to the mailbox this afternoon and there was an envelope and I thought immediately 2017 AAPK knife! Then I realized it was from another location. I haven't identified the anonymous sender yet, but who ever, thank you for sending a brand new Rough Rider Trapper, an RR1498.
The box sez' Strawberry Bone Deluxe Quality Knives and I am impressed by the quality of this knife. Great fit and finish, it walks and talks, the color is attractive , pinched bolsters, good looking knife. I'm going to sharpen it and give it a real work out, let my EDCs have some time off.
I've been bombed a couple of times but not anonymously, so far my detective work hasn't produced results.
Thanks again!

There ya go Cuz. I like those Indian Stag Delrin® handles and slanted bolsters. Probably very early to mid or mid late '70s. I think Camillus introduced Indian Stag in 1972.

Thank you guys.

Cuz I guess I’m one of the very few that actually like the Indian Stag handles. And you’re right, those slanted bolsters just set them apart.
