Fat chance on that happening. I've given up on that search, Greg did a repro JRB.
That's good enough for me.


Looks good though Mike.

I have trimmed around the "Steyr/Doler" hedges but never owned one. I have another "oddball", quite rare, that still fits the category. I know that Guido has one and, I believe, we both bought them from Rhett. Mine came about in a "cash/RMKs" trade with Rhett at a Lake;and show...about 30 years ago. Rhett's price sticker and blade code is still on it. I just burrowed to find it in The Captain's STASH!
I believe...and have not ever heard any other answer that satisfies me as much, that this knife, which I call a "K-6.5" may have been a prototype for Doug Kenefick's "Sasquatch". Blade length is (& the sheath is stamped) 6.5 inches. "NO SPACERS" and, according to Rhett and Dave Griffin, 100% RMK "shop-made"! Dressed stag handle in a semi-border patrol shaping. A thick solid brass butt plate...with a black-faced compass drilled in it!! The stone is salmon and the whole package is 1980 production.
Hope you like it. I have been told, in total, "5" were made.
Stay sharp, Capt. Chris

That compass looks really good surrounded by the brass. I was surprised by the pinned handle, had to do a double take. Great looking setup.
