Slow gun show is fun for 'finds'...

particularly like 'sleeper' knives. Have a couple of shoe-boxes full of off-beat, useful blade configs. As well, before they got 'known',scarfed up all sorts of older carbon steel kitchen/butcher knives, When I started research, it was interesting to find that some of them were as old as mid-19th century -- but just hadn't apparently been 'sharpened to death'. Same with Scando-blades, which have finally taken off into higher prices.

Anyway, that blade/handle style is one of my choices for all around. when I get bored at a show, it's time to search the 'rubble piles', tho', the InterNets have altered even that. Fewer sleepers = very optimistic pricing ;~`)
