I started a new thread, asking Dan or Patti about the Bowie.

Since I can't seem to find the thread that you are talking about, can you direct me to it. Or, what did you want to find out?

Andy - I don't know for sure, but your knife may be worth a little more as a collectable. My first Cold Steel knife was a sterile Recon Scout, a little more rare than all the marked ones on the market. I have never seen an uncoated Recon Scout. I DO have the older model Carbon V bladed Trailmaster which is uncoated. Tom <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I thought that might be the case. I've never seen another one like it. And I've searched eBay's page for Cold Steel auctions for years.

Cold Steel makes some nice choppers! Heres the one I have in Carbon V.

Is that thing a variant khukri? (it looks very cool and 'choppy' by the way!)

Ok, here's my Recon Scout and Kukri.

First is my Recon Scout. I bought it on eBay for $61.76 with shipping.

As you can see from both sides, it is both sterile and without a finish. [Linked Image from i6.photobucket.com] [Linked Image from i6.photobucket.com]

Here's a spine shot

Here you can see the 2nd marks on both sides of the guard and the butt.

And here's my Gurkha Kukri that I got on eBay for $53.85 with shipping.

I don't know if this is a factory sheath. I've not seen another one like it.

As you can see from the handle, the previous owner worked it pretty hard.

And here they are with some of my Rats.

Nice collection Andy! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> I would DEFINITELY keep the Recon Scout, as it is not only unusual but highly functional as well. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Tom
