If I understand this right this knife won't be available to must of us for quite a while. That is probably a good thing, my lawnmower is in the shop getting a new motor $700.00 expense <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />, there is a crew putting a new roof on my home as I type this and I carry a $1000.00 deductible <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />, plus I've comitted to purchase a M1 30 carbine from a local gun trader for $375.00 tomorrow <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />. It will be a while before a can afford this knife anyway and this one is on my must have list <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />.
