See?! That's what we need...a current-issue, made-in-the-USA, Kershaw Bowie!

Oh, yes yes yes yes yes yes

Or, you could give me yours. ;)

Nice score!
 
Thanks ya'll! :)

As far as blade steel goes, I've google'd these knives in every way I could think of and didn't come up with anything :(
 
I am wondering if the folders weren't done by Fox Cutlery out of N690Co steel.
 
I knew I read about one of these knifes on the forum some time ago, so I searched on it and per kershawguy, and I have no reason to mistrust him :D they were made by Falcon, not Fox.
 
The Maniago series were done by I believe Falcon knives in Maniago Italy in 1991 for Kershaw, I don't know what the blade steel was. I have seen and had a couple with different handle material that were branded Falcon. The bowie was from around the same era 1993 I think. They were designed by Dan Harrison, he also did the stag handled hunting knives in three styles during the same time period.
 
I actually have one of the 4072's(serial 1618) as well. This is the first time I've come across another person with one. I've been going nuts trying to find information on this knife. It's like it never existed. My father bought it back in the early 90's. He fell on hard times recently and was going to sell it dirt cheap so instead I gave him what he wanted for it and said I'd hold onto it for safe keeping until he wanted it back. I have no clue what its worth but its probably worth more to me than to a collector.
