Yeah, I picked up on that. I still say it is a sax. Sometimes spelled seax. That is an old Norse design, slightly modified with the curved edge. They were made in all sizes.
It might make a better pickle slicer than your Speed Bump <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
The thing I was amazed at was the BC has been making this knife design for FOUR years. It makes me wonder what other cool stuff is hidden away in that Wauseon stronghold. And I'll bet Dan knows and he ain't talkin'. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
