Thanks, that's one of the #66 Calf Ropers that recently came out. The sambar stag has a nice dark color, kinda like coffee grounds, and for some reason it reached out and grabbed me, or rather my wallet, and came my way even though I wasn't really in the market. That's the way life happens sometimes, and I'm really glad I spent the coin on it now that I have it. Here's the other side:Can we talk about the knife on the right for a second? Wow!
That's nice! Love the engraving.Something new Menefee
