I got this Gerber Bowie off the AAPK site and I am super happy with it

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
TOPDOG, Though I have no experience with Gerber Bowies the thick guard and wide ricasso tell me the designer was focused on delivering POWER. No subtlety here, just the efficient delivery of maximum force. If you utilize the blade for some serious chopping let us know how well the knife performs. I would be interested in learning if any hot spots develop in your hand when using this.

What is the metal item just below the top knife?

Petekuhn, the 4th item from the top is a Finnish made Puukko. It should have a horse's head on the handle which I cannot see. The handle itself is made of casein which is extracted from milk.

Tang stamp ground off, but good quality pearl
Beacon Germany

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
I picked this one up over the weekend from a little roadside fleamarket in my area for $32. Thought it would be another nice addition to my EDC Barlows. A 2019 Case XX 22009-1/2 Barlow. Like new, strong snap, and just a few tiny scratches.
