WTB/ISO: USA-made boot knife with patriotic theme

I've got a small collection of USA made knives (with patriotic designs) from Buck, Case, Schrade, ZT, Bear & Son, Pro-Tech, Guardian Tactical, Kershaw, Leatherman, Queens Cutlery and knife-maker Ken Hall.

I'm trying to collect examples of various styles, sizes and types... autos, AOs, flippers, nail clip, fixed blade, razor, etc.

I'd like to add a small boot knife

Anyone have a lead on one with a patriotic design?

Thx
Jim

I could always have one made or a production knife engraved... But it's fun to first search in the wild for one that already exists

Well... Found one!

Actually... Just paid a deposit and am having one made by Ken Hall

It's a Scottish Sgian Dubh

4" blade 8 1/4" OAL

Here's the red, white and blue handle material he'll use (instead of the maple) and an example of what the knife will look like (I'll wear it affixed to my cowboy boots vs in my kilt hose like the Scots)

Not a boot knife, but I thought of you when I stumbled across this one on ebay.
