1st Gen. Sowbelly & Rare Elk

Charlie Dorton brought the Bulldog Brand to life in 1978. He began importing them from the Olbertz factory in Germany until 1987. The brand went extinct for a few years until Jim Parker bought it in 1991 and resurected the brand under the Parker Knife Co. umbrella where the brand is still going strong.

Greenbone: Not so easy to find quality 1st Gen BDs. This one carries my favored greenbone.

The rare Rocky Mountain Elk covers is not a modification nor an American made BD. It is Solingen made and appeared in their catalog. Made in 1996.

dog,Gracias amigo. The Rocky Mountain Elk covers blow me away. The F&F are impeccable. None of my other sunfishes are in the same league. I still haven't gotten my breath entirely back. May deserve its own shadow box.
