What do you know of these knives? Steel, number produced, quality?
Are such commemorative knives intended for normal use like the standard production knives or are they intended simply for collecting or for display or show with inferior steel?

Those knives should be a prize for Kentucky folks that are into history or some one who collects commemorative knives. The red handles would make a good EDC, easy to spot if you're working and drop it.
The ones I saw on the internet were made by Queen, so they ought to be a decent knife.

Harrod was certainly a man deserving of a commemorative knife, thanks to Queen for fulfilling that service.
I still wonder if the knives are worthy of the man and what knives he carried himself. Of him it had been said that he "served his country faithfully and it has neglected his memory", and "recorded history has not yet done justice to Harrod". https://www.genealogy.com/ftm/s/p/a/Car ... -0622.html
