I wish that the few military overruns were headed the yard rather than to to Blade West. I understand the marketing reasons for doing so -- you pay for a place at a show and if you expect to attract new customers from the exposure, then you've got to have knives to sell. However, "the pack" also needs a bone thrown once in a while. I suppose that you could call the coin our bone, but that's not what I'm looking for. I want a blade, I want it big, the dogfather was a good beginning, but only a beginning... I want a res-c handled cutlass!!
