Bulldog BKC 149-A Lockback

Post by Hukk »

Here is 4 pictures of a BKC 149-A, a 4 7/8 inch lockback that was on my doorstep when I got home from the hospital yesterday. I had a lot of fun watching my son open this one. I believe this one was made in the 1991 to 1992 second generation. Real nice thick stag on this guy. Easy to call this guy near mint.

I also have two pictures of the original 4 1/4 inch lockback prototype set from 1993 that were featured on the 1993 catalog. Catalog and signed shipping invoice are included. All 5 have BULLDOG BRAND PROTO #2 in print engraved in the blade. Most, if not all have Rostfrei marked on the tang.

:lol: :lol: I almost hated to post it after I saw you had it in your bidding software. But when I saw it on eBay, I knew only 100 were made and the stag I assumed was excllent, but another case of pictures not doing a knife justice in an auction. I made a fairly sustancial bid on the night before and wasn't aware of your interest. My PC with that software cashed, but I did rescue my data. ::tu:: I'm not going to do much with it one handed. ::dang::

Ahhh the pressure of these high standards Ken are unbearable... :lol: :lol: I don't know what that is on the bone handle, I assure you it's not dirt it was cleaned very thoroughly.. ::nod:: I am thinking its just where the some of the dye in the bone handle is fading away or was not properly dyed in the first place..

Sigh...Whew...Now I can relax since I explained that... :mrgreen: :lol: :lol: Thanks Ken for your comments they are always appreciated..
