The Eagles Have Landed

Post by Mr Rick »

When I bid on these beauties I thought they were identical twins, It turns out they are sisters, but two totally different knives. They make a really great set, and are small enough that I can carry both in my Levi's watch pocket, and still have room for a watch. 8)

Any more information about them would be greatly appreciated. ::nod::

I'll check. ::tu::

Edit: No, no pattern number on the knife. ::td:: But thanks for the information. I'm too new to all of this to even think to look for such things. :oops:
