Here are some cool questions that were used in a contest when this forum was started. I thought some of you guys would get a kick out of the questions.

Feel free to guess, but if you dig up the answers don't spoil it for everyone else.

I'll post the answers in a couple of days


Here are the questions:
1. What was the name of Jerry’s knuckle knife as advertised in the 1980s?
2. Number of sharp knives I (wife) have in my kitchen?
3. Which of Jerry’s hands was injured?
4. What was the subject of the shop talk article Jerry wrote for Blade magazine in the 1980s?
5. What magazine purchased the aforementioned article and ran it as a feature? (Clue: Not a knife publication)
6. What was the title of the article Jerry wrote for Combat Knives magazine in the 1980s?
7. The Stealth Hawk is made from what material?
8. Jerry did all of the national voice-over work for what product for 2 years?
9. What is the name of Jerry’s favorite cigar?
10. What is the official beer of Busse Combat Knife Co.?
11. What type of vehicle do we currently drive?
12. Jerry made a folder in the early 1980s with a deer tine handle, hand-forged O-1 blade, and hand-forged accoutrements. It was sold extensively by the Acorn Shop in Gatlinburg, TN. What was the name of this folding knife?
13. The name “Battle Mistress” was gleaned from a poem. What is the name of this poem and who is the author?
14. Jerry has taught at how many different universities?
15. The name “Steel Heart” was gleaned from which of Shakespeare’s plays?
16. How many 1” pieces of rope did Jerry cut at the 1999 Blade show with a Basic #7?
17. Jerry and I appeared on which late night talk show?
18. Last year Jerry donated a Custom Battle Mistress to the Disabled American Veterans. What did the proceeds from this knife help them purchase?
19. Why are the letters in “Busse Combat” raised on the handle of the Basic series?
20. Give three of your favorite headlines from any of Busse Combat’s advertisements?
 
Yes, please guess. Since I have no clue about any of the questions -- unless Amy-0's penchant for Coors Light is the answer to official beer -- I'd like to see the guesses of those who have a shot at being correct.
 
If its guesses you want........

Which poses yet another question - Why doesnt the Stealth Hawk have talon holes?
