That was the knife that stood out to me in the line-up you showed from your trading.

Beautiful knife. That damascus looks exceptional ground by Jim.

Siska is one of the best subhilt makers, IMO.

Yes, that is what I gave him. The anchor chain was from the late 1800's to early 1900's. The links weighted 18# apiece and I forge them into billets.

We use to be the Whaling Capital of the World, here in New Bedford. Ever read Moby Dick????? We still have the largest fishing port on the east coast.:thumbup::thumbup: The ship I had sank a long time ago.

HEHEHEHEHE!!!
