Team Realtree 192 Limited Edition

[roadhand]

CJ or Joe,

I came across a Team Realtree 192 Limited edition (1 of 250) today. My question is: Did all of the knives have the three engraved signatures on the back or was this something done at a show or?

Thanks

Doug,
I just came across your post and realized that i never gave you an answer. I did some research and still can't find the answer you need! Is the knife signed with an electric pencil? Who's names are on it? I know that Chuck Buck and Bill Jordon were at a few shows together and they signed knives as people brought them to be signed.

The Team Realtree project was a collectible project that did not go to market as planned. Eventually it was picked up by Bass Pro. Bass Pro puts on fall hunting classics every year (with all the new stores there is one every weekend for about 8 weeks) and Dad and I try to get to each one and autograph blades. This last year, Bill Jordan, the creator of Realtree, was gracious enough to come down to our booth at the Fall Classic outside of Dallas and sign some knives with Dad. I also signed a few that day. Dad and Bill were together again the following weekend at the Bass Pro in Springfield. If you have one with my signature on it, it is from that 2 days outside of Dallas, last August.

There is talk about doing some other things with Bill Jordan and I am trying to put together a hunting trip with him and his son with my son and me.

Thanks CJ. The knife is engraved with an electric pen and I could make out the signatures for you and Jordan, but couldn't decipher the third. I guess that would make it a pretty rare bird. Do you recall what the list price was on the knife? Just trying to get some idea of where to start the haggling, cause it's definately going to end up in my collection.
