Maybe KA-BAR can reproduce it in it's custom shop.

That is cool. I hope you find that bag even if you don't send me anything. Loosing an entire bag of knives is just not good bud.

Not sure why I never noticed the Canadian Belt knife before. It looks funky, but at the same time it looks right. If you get what I mean.

did you see the one Bensinger posted up on FB today?

The design was so ahead of its time and beautiful they put one in the Museum of modern art in NYC.

Speaking of Kabar. Does the E.W. Stone knife belong on this list?

Grohmann knives in Canada still make it. The 3S is issued to the Canadian Military

Yeah there’s a mini Russell folding knife version of it that I’m always looking long and hard at. Haven’t pulled the trigger yet, but that might change soon...

My 300S Grohmann which is also in the lost bag. A folding version of the 1S

I was quoting the post about Teddy Roosevelt's knife, not the Canadian belt knife.

Handle and ricasso aside, the blade bears a striking similarity to the Kephart. I’m seeing it now all over the place.

You never cease to not disappoint Tankman. Love the flow of its lines. Hope you track down your bag o’ goodness...

Ho.Lee.crap. You guys are slipping.

We’re 33 posts in and I’m the first guy to say SMATCHET!!!!!!

Much more practically, there’s the classic roach belly knife.

US Model 1917 Bolo Knife

I think we are straying from the original intent of the thread. There are lots of iconic knives. He wanted knives associated to a specific historical person.

The truth is to most of them a knife was a tool, lost, broken, replaced with whatever was available.

I wish Jim Bowie's knife had survived. Even he had several different ones.

I don't know what knife he carried but Peter Freuchen was just bad to the bone. And of course Hugh Glass should not be forgotten.

 

[Ethan Becker]

Hey Tanker....
That Peter Freuchen guy was severely incredible... Gonna have to do a little digging....Thank you for the tip.... And NEVER, EVER forget Hugh Glass, who truly went naked into the wilderness and made it back.... e

Just a rumor but Glass and Tanker might have a few things in common .
