Thanks for clarifying DW. Mine are working knives and I take good care of mine but was just wondering for future if for some reason something ever did happen. Merry Xmas to all
Thanks everyone for the information. The knife is just fine as is,it is my primary knife I use while hunting. I'm always searching for that elusive combination of function and beauty.My model 23 is all business but is still beautiful in a rugged way. Hopefully my search will never end and I will continue to buy more knives!
