Kent_Warnberg Knife Enthusiast Registered: 11/28/05 Posts: 755 Loc: Mpls, MN	Friends, Kevin, Dale, and Guido, WOW! The #26 is one of my faves too! Only have 2 so far, both with the #25 handle, and one O/O with the Capt. with a #25 handle, with an ivory center. Guido, Is the scrimming of a Timberdoodle, (snipe)? Beautiful, and is he second one from the Left, Mammoth Ivory? Awesome! Kevin, You have way too many! and Dale, your right up there! Oh, today I just received from Dale, a display base with a stag horn on the ends..to hold a #26! (Dales work is Really Nice)! Kent RKS #109

Kent_Warnberg Knife Enthusiast Registered: 11/28/05 Posts: 755 Loc: Mpls, MN	Friends, and Doug! Sorry Doug, but I wasn't trying to leave you off of that last post, so as another writer said, "You seem to have too many scrimmed"! Anyway, I don't want you to get tired of that scrimmed 26, so I'll just send you my address, so that you can send that one my way! That way Mr. R.B. can do another one for you. Oh, I will pay you with my un-dying gratitude! Awesome 26's! Kent RKS #109

Rick_Bowles Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/18/05 Posts: 1965 Loc: Virginia Beach, VA	When Gary was still in the R&D stage of the Pathfinder he sent me one of the prototypes to scrimshaw. This particular knife had a false edge and a mini commemorative handle complete with the polished center section and a small crown stag butt. As I recall I scrimshawed Sitting Bull on the proto #26. I asked Gary to send me an image of it (if he can find it). Sorry for the story and no pic (yet) but it's very cool. _________________________ Rick Bowles RKS #012 www.RBscrim.com N.K.C.A.

vklough46 Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/15/05 Posts: 1649 Loc: Boogie Wonderland	I would like to thank everyone who has posted. From those who have several 26s to Warren Polidori's first, but not last, 26. Thanks for making this your first post, Warren. We have seen beautiful examples of another great RMK model. From 26s carried in the field to those that have been embellished with beautiful scrimshaw and engraving. From stag to wood to ivory to Micarta, all wonderful examples of this great little knife. And to my friend Chief who doesn't have any 26s, someday you will see the light, my brother. The beautiful shining light of the charismatic little 26.

silverknife Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/15/05 Posts: 2079 Loc: Think Snow	Kevin, your last post reminded me, I forgot all about these little 26's. While I was away someone ran them through the dishwasher 'cause they were dirty and the darn things shrank!!!
