I especially loved the beginning, because I've been interested in western bowies because my freind has one and its fun knowing more about his own knives than him. =]
he has that Exact one too.
it's a w-49 right vic?
do you know if yours was made after camillius took over in 91?
and also what toes the tang stamp say?
does it say boulder colorado, longmount colorado or camillius new york?

I did like the end too. =]
but the insight about more original bowies and kabars was really cool.
thanks vic. =]
