This example is one of only 50, forged in carbon steel (Swedish Tool Steel, at the time)! They're hard to come by, to say the least.
I got back a couple of days ago with no eventful skinning chores done as I was "buck-hunting" and only saw 2 "shooters" (for me anyway) and they were marginal. I will make my final trek the later part of next week....to be continued...
Stay Sharp,
