Duke and I sold that knife to Rod. There were several signed TL pieces in the group and a few unembellished knives. We bought the knives from the fellow's widow and have verified that he and Tom were indeed good friends. I am confident it's a TL.
good info.
Like I said, I am going to dig into this a bit and see what I can find out about the quantity of knives TL put out, and perhaps some "ratio" of plain (for lack of a better term) knives he made versus embellished.
The little 21 is, for my tastes, one of the better TL knives I have seen. Early blade with horizontal logo stamp - small - and large separate "S".
