Black Canvas Micarta GEC's. The 78 is a user that I got for Christmas. I think roughly around 100 of each SFO's produced - but that's off the top of my head... maybe more or less.

That's what I've always felt, Toothpick the American Laguiole. Don't know about the origins of the Toothpick pattern but perhaps it was from the South with a French influence, or maybe an American cutler felt inspired by the Laguiole which certainly pre-dates it?
