I think that is literally the fastest I’ve ever hit the button. That’s a beautiful set you have.

wonderboy1377s Your Heritage set post looks like it was shot with a filter or perhaps hand drawn? Either way it reminds me of an old timey/60s-70s magazine advertisement. Nicely Done Sir.

matthewtstock Thanks. I was playing around with filters and adjusting the image characteristics. It was another rainy day here.

One of my favorites...

Is the handle original or replaced? If replaced, do you recall attachment method of original kraton handle? I have one the before it became mines, was left in the original sheath that was wet and molded. The handle absorbed the mold smell and I cannot get rid of it. Thinking some new G10 scales with spacers will solve problem but unsure of tang configuration. Thoughts of ideas appreciated.
Thanks
