Have a great trip upnorth!!

Don't really know about older knives, but man oh man, some great knifemakers in New Mexico...
Bob Terzoula, Richard Rogers, Jay Fisher, Ty Montell...and many others.

Hope you find something.

Bill

P. S.
Oh yeah...don't forget to have some chilies.

No, but have a safe trip Charlie !

Good luck hunting, I'll cover eBay while you're gone !

And.......don't forget to stop once or twice where the wifey wants to go.

Fran

P.S Skip the chilies, or you'll be spending a day at a rest stop.

Jay Fisher likely uses more gemstone in his knife handles than any other knifemaker.

http://www.jayfisher.com

I just went to his site and his latest honor is: 2007 Best of the West Source book published by True West Magazine, Jay Fisher is listed as the Best Living Knifemaker!

There is a lot of informatiom on him and his knives are a treat on your eyes!

Since there is Gemstones, this DOES count as one of the afore mentioned stops for the wife.
