Thanks for the pics, Tom. The Alamo looks great. That cannon looks just like one of the cannons my unit used. Is it a six pounder?

Both of the Rangers were knife nuts and really liked my Bowies, along with my Cold Steel XL Voyager I had in my pocket. The Ranger in the first pic carried a couple of knives on him and was aware of Bladeforums, Busse, and Carothers, and had seen some of the videos. The Ranger in the second pic was the Sergeant in charge, and a terrific guy as well. Both Rangers are a credit to their Service, and I am happy and proud to have met them.

Hey Tom, when I was at the Alamo the first time as a kid, they had a Bowie knife in a display case just inside those main entry doors.

Josh, funny you posted that. While I was posing for a pic holding my knife a fellow walked by and said exactly that ! Then he said "that's what I call a Bowie !".

Randy, they're building a Visitors' Center and I imagine that's where a lot of displays, including private collections will be on display. Of course you will have to pay to see them.
