Thanks for reminding me. I've been "thinking about getting one of these" for close to two years now. To still have them must mean they had a very large number. I see people offering USED ones for that amount or more.

I found this one today at a local collectibles shop I check in with from time to time. He got it in on trade. It has not been used or re-sharpened. I have heard many horror stories about his knife. But, maybe because it hasn't been used, this one actually has no wobble in the blade, when opened it has a strong snap and a positive lock with no play, & great snap when closed. Not bad for $15 out the door. I doubt I will carry it and keep it new.
