Dan, you are correct . I stand corrected it was the 20 year knife. I was not a collector of the NKCA annual knives but did however buy a few that hit my fancy back in the day, mainly the older Case XX knives. It sure is a beauty no matter the reason for its release. I have enjoyed learning a bit from you Cripple Creek collectors . I spend about 95% of my time on the Antique Remington knife header. I would still love to know where the 1993 Membership drive knife is and if the owner would sell..... that is also one beautiful knife. Thanks folks. John
