If you never knew Bo Randall and had him make a knife for you, if you delayed until Bill Moran famous and inaccessible and then passed away, if you baulked at $125 for a Bob Loveless in 1971 and found the same knife $2000 in 1978 and never got around to it and then Bob gone too, then Bill Bagwell would be your last bet of those early legends, and at his age and health condition, you are cutting things mighty close, AGAIN! This is your conscience speaking.

But seriously, it takes a serious buyer to gamble that sort of money this late in the game. Bill remains in my prayers that he comes back strong as ever, but at already 2yrs backorder and him running 1/4 throttle due to hitting the wall daily, those wait times may be very conservative and may not improve.
