I post this in response to Joe's wonderful article in the Knife News #7 issue about the use of brown micarta. This knife was passed to me by my dad, however he was not the original owner. I have posted this knife before, inquiring as to the "scout" etching, as well as the additional thumb notches. I've seen the etching "scout" on a couple knives, passing through eBay, in the past. The reason for this post is the brown micarta....I hope it is of interest.
