These knives are up for sale as part of my AFAustin's 4th Annual "Going to the Dogs" Sale in the traditionals sales forum: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/s...ing-to-the-Dogs-Sale?p=15861531#post15861531
But their origin is different. Our esteemed member Gundawg (John) and I were talking about knives and dogs awhile back and he decided to send me a gifta box of knives he had lying around but not being used. It was very generous of him, and given his great love of dogs I think its fitting that the proceeds from these sales likewise be donated to the Highland Lakes SPCA, as described in the companion thread.These are modern knives for the most part, and as Im a traditionals fan, Im not very familiar with them but will describe them the best I can.
I'm going to put some knives up now and add some more later, so please check back.
And with that, on to the knives!
