I think most everyone has their own "Holy Grail". Mine has been a pre-war Hunter to round out my Model 3 collection. They are so scarce that I had just about given up any hope when this one came my way complete with it's original C.J. Moore sheath..

I can't narrow the born on date any closer to the 4th quarter of 1939 (When Bo got his first trademark stamp) and the 4th quarter of 1942 (When Bo made the first Zacharias Fighter), but the blade grind is a close cousin to Bo's own "Brooks Brothers" knife on page 63 of Gaddis' book which was made in 1940.

I hope you enjoy the pics:










Best,
