Let's see what I've been following along here...





...congratulations, Fishtail!

The originals aren't an easy find these days. If you do, usually very expensive. I foolishly traded away my traditional stag Guardian, but was able to hold on to these two. I'm not even positive about the scale materials...

Are these knives nickel silver, fully lined D stamped and 2-piece slip in spring?
