The First Bulldog Prototypes of 1993 Rare of the RARE
Well here are a few knives that will go on the selling block sometime in the future, they are part of Bulldog history and most have a COA and a copy of a shipping invoice with a hand written note and signed by Lim Parker OR Just the September shipping invoice signed by Achim Gronauer from Friedrich Olbertz factory.
This is an impressive set of knives, sometime in the future they will be uo for sale.
LOOK AT HOW PROTOTYPE IS WRITTEN ON THESE KNIVES -ever see that before?

Almost all of these came through a friend directly from Jim Parker before he left us. Here is what may be the only prototype set of itt's kind.
The exotics of the Lewis and Clark Swing guard. All are prototypes. This may be the only complete prototype set out there.

Ya I mean a cheetah, but I feel it has the good looks of a copperlock which is by far one of my favorite CASE knives and I only have one..... lol. THe rear bolster leans back like the copperlock does nice touch. Do you display these knives or tuck them away in a dark place, I think if I had a good set like that I would get some kind of wall display?.Hukk wrote:lenny357 wrote:Those are very nice it has the shape of a CASE copperlock and swing guard, if they mated the 2.

They are all ONE of a KIND with shiping invoice signed by Achim Groauer or copy of invoice with a handwritten note describing the knife signed by Jim Parker.
Many have no tang stamp, or one from Rostfrei. This lockback Calf Roper replaced the BKC 149, BKC 149A, and BKC 149B. It was a brand new model in 1993.

Re: The First Bulldog Prototypes of 1993 Rare of the RARE
Thanks, they weren't cheap! I do plan to open a store with Bryans help and I will be listing knives of my collection along with some knifemaking supplies which I plan to do more of - seems like too much just gets in the way. I will also be getting a titanium knee so I will likely sell most of what I have. Actually my wife will run the store, I just want to make knives and I have some awesome materials and ideas - no time to do it. In addition I have about 50 25th anniversary knives, all prototypes that have exotic handles, I posted some sowbellies the other day. They are pricey because of what they are, but it is pretty much what I paid - very close to it in fact.
