i had a lot of Kephart photos posted from last Blade Show. great details...

the knife in the museum is used hard. people making copies off that are not making authentic copies?!

Ethan's is like new :D
 
Total newbie here, and I’m about to do some Googling, but is the Kephart Sheath Knife one of Ethan’s inspirations? I see similarities in the handle and thickness of the blade.

Ethan is old, but not that old ;)

well, mostly :)
