found my first bali :)

[Metis]

getting ready to move, and the bali' just jumped out of a box i've be carting around for years.

had to have gotten it in about '84, because i remember being 14 and having my parents sign the order form because i was underage.

it's a Taylor. stainless weehawk blade. slab stainless handles. brass Manila latch. markings on tang: Taylor (r), 'surgical japan' [over] 'G968'.

it seems i also stamped my initials in it, one just below each tang pin (geek).

can anyone give me any more info on it? what do clean ones go for (if anything)?

i'll probably clean it up (light rust inside handles), repin it, flip and reminisce....ahhhh.....

thanks for listening,

rob

blade_420,

thanks!

mine's just like the G971, but w/ a weehawk.

what a flashback. i've got this strange urge to play Pac-Man and watch "Solid Gold" now (shudder....)
