Fantastic knife, John. So unusual. ::tu::

Roger, that knife of June 16 is really special.
That must be a scarce model.

It is the first one I have run across Joe.It is a neat knife.The saw and screwdriver blades are really cool.They had that pattern in a couple different 3 blade combinations also.I haven't seen any of those either.
