The button and bladestamp images are extracts from my family history.
Specifically, the "Trinacria" is the symbol of Sicily, and the red and yellow diagonal, are the colors of her flag. My grandfather, and three of his many brothers, joined the melting pot that is America, in about 1895 from La Bella Sicilia! This seems like a good "guild" stamp to fit that history . . . . . . . . . if there were a guild for SFOs. But I digress!!
Bill caught wind of my determination to not use caplifters on my Barlows, because I have never seen one on a traditional Barlow.
He presented me with a surprise box of Soupbones when I got to the factory, for which I was delighted!!!!
Then I saw his devilish grin as I opened them, and saw some of them had cap lifters!!!!
What to do?? They are beautiful knives!! So I signed each one with a disclaimer!!
As Bart Simpson said, "I didn't do it!!
