Thanks Captain, nice to hear from you. Yes, I do understand the market and prices, I don't have any real regrets. It is a "buyers" market and that's cool in it's own way. I have to admit, sad are the days when I wanted a Trapper could not decide if I wanted a 5" or a 6" plus had a custom sheath "pouch" made for the big one. Great knives, in the end I decided I was a "fighter" knife guy as I'm more able to afford a tiny collection. Put them up on Ebay (no reserve) and made a few $100 easy, like I said not a real trader. Still I enjoy the knives, showing mine and having Guy Clark sign it after a show was pretty cool too. I still read up on the Randall Kinfe, enjoy the New Letter. There is still "one" more I need. I'm sure a few others will come to mind. But you know what they say about thinking, that first time, is always the hardest. You are right Stay Sharp.
