Question for Bonfire Bob

Post by mnstuff »

Bobby I have in my collection an old cutler usa stag handled barlow. My question is this : On one of the bolsters it is engraved Adrian and under that RAP. I bought this being told it was a gift to Adrian Harris . Do you remember this particular knife ? The dealer I got it from also told me it came out of a collection from Jackson Tn. if that is any help. I know there is a long standing relationship between Tenn Knife Works and Colonial. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
