Thanks, Cal...I've had that Pearl Buck reference pointed out to me a time or two. That Aerial is a good looking knife. This is the only other Buck knife I own...guess if you had long legs and real tall boots it might qualify as a boot knife.

I only have the one, it's a Case-XX P62-4 1/2 SS. It has a 4 & 5/8" blade. Overall length is 8 & 1/2"
Knife #8 in my first post was made from that model Case. Back in the late 1970's a company in Stoneham Massachusetts bought a bunch of Case boot dagger blades and contracted with Shaw-Liebowitz to craft handles for them.They were to be made in a run of 750 and represent the Army Navy Air Force and Marine Corps.The handles were cast in pewter and silver plated.They were supposed to come in a custom walnut case(all four together)and the price was $500.
For whatever reason(not enough subscriptions;too pricey)the only knife ever made was the USMC knife. I bought two of them in the 600 serial # range for $15 apiece in the mid-1980's and gave one to my brother who was in the Corps. Never have seen any more of them floating around. Somewhere I have a copy of the original ad for them;I'll see if I can dig it out and post it.

I bought one of those back in the early 80's at a barbershop of all places. I lost it somewhere along the way but have always remembered it as a might fine knife. Guess I ought to see about replacing it one of these days.

I just started getting fascinated with boot knives. I can see the advantage of carrying them when an uncomfortable situation might require more than a folding knife alone or in military environments.
