Personally, I would like to see this knife go to somebody that will appreciate it. A close friend with a stellar history in exploration just auctioned some of his property after seeing another recently deceased friend's property dispersed haphazardly by his heirs. When I asked him why he didn't give a particularly important piece to his son he said "Because he never showed any interest in it while I'm still here, so why should he care when I'm dead?"

I just bought two new shotguns and an Alaska Skinner, so I am a little light in the discretionary funds department, but I would buy it if I had the scratch.
