Adam,
If I don't pick one up in a reasonable amount of time I might have you send her up my way for a date.
They're a little rare.

I've owned one of the old ones and three of the new ones. I'm down to just one now. I'll bet one of the regular dealers at BFC have one.
ETA: Just checked, there are a few on the auction site.

Is there a difference between those marked CS and those marked just SR?

I believe the CS stands for Custom Shop, while the SR stands for Swamp Rat.

Gary - All of the Vexes I have seen have the CS logo, and most of them are shaped the same. I have seen several recurves and a few varients, though. The bottom one I special ordered with a swedged clip point. The originals and the recent ones are quite different from eachother. The newer ones are beefier.
I really like the Vex. It is easily one of my favorites.

One I was looking at only said "SWAMP RAT" in block letters. All of others said Swamp Rat Custom Shop .

Oh, I gotcha. I haven't seen any of those yet.
There were a bunch at Knob Creek, maybe there were some "SWAMP RAT" ones there and that's where that one came from.
