It was more akin to begging and pleading but I forget all that groveling now that I have this knife.. 
Uhhhh my begging must have worked pretty good Derrick because I somehow managed to get all four of them...

Hey Hukk,
You remind me of the Hunt Brothers, who tried to buy up all of the deleiverable silver in the 70s. They got about half!
Watch out for the FTC......................................

I guess I can put this here now! Stockman was kind enough to tell me it's stag, not bone as I originally thought.

Slightly off topic...and borrowed from the http://WWW.....
In 1973, the Hunt family of Texas, possibly the richest family in America at the time, decided to buy precious metals as a hedge against inflation. Gold could not be held by private citizens at that time, so the Hunts began to buy silver in enormous quantity.
In 1979 the sons of patriarch H.L. Hunt, Nelson Bunker and William Herbert, together with some wealthy Arabs, formed a silver pool. In a short period of time they had amassed more than 200 million ounces of silver, equivalent to half the world's deliverable supply.
When the Hunt's had begun accumulating silver back in 1973 the price was in the $1.95 / ounce range. Early in '79, the price was about $5. Late '79 / early '80 the price was in the $50's, peaking at $54.
Once the silver market was cornered, outsiders joined the chase but a combination of changed trading rules on the New York Metals Market (COMEX) and the intervention of the Federal Reserve put an end to the game. The price began to slide, culminating in a 50% one-day decline on March 27, 1980 as the price plummeted from $21.62 to $10.80.
The collapse of the silver market meant countless losses for speculators. The Hunt brothers declared bankruptcy. By 1987 their liabilities had grown to nearly $2.5 billion against assets of $1.5 billion. In August of 1988 the Hunts were convicted of conspiring to manipulate the market.

I also found another Russell reproduction, to stay on topic of course...
