OK, small but loyal crew,
We're building an old style Trout & Bird. Here's the specs, as comes standard on this guy:
* 4 inch blade length
* 3/16 inch blade stock
* A Bowie-style blade shape
* Top edge is sharp!
* Brass reduced hilt
* Red, white & blue spacers
* Stag handle
* Tan Model "B" sheath with a "wrap-around" handle keeper strap
Historical note: Francis Gary Powers carried this model when he was shot down over Russia in his U-2 spy plane (May, 1960)
.........So..........Where do we go from here?.........&.........
we are not handcuffed to exactly our $600 total price: little over or under (within 10%) is acceptable.
Let's ROLL!
P.S.: For historical reference, here's a spendid example in a Tight-stitched, brown button, split-looped pancake sheath, (Outta' The Captain's ""Stash")
Stay Sharp,
Capt. Chris
