allow me to introduce the newest in my line of tactical knives
the Rebel
i think its a fitting name considering that its a stock total stock removal knife as opposed to a forged knife ( total blasphemy!!)
around my part of the state of Ohio there was a attack by a southern general during the civil war called Morgans Raid or the Great raid of 1863
For 46 days as they rode over 1,000 miles (1,600 km), Morgan's Confederates covered a region from Tennessee to northern Ohio. The raid coincided with the Vicksburg Campaign and the Gettysburg Campaign, although it was not directly related to either campaign. However, it served to draw the attention of tens of thousands of Federal troops away from their normal duties and strike fear in the civilian population of several Northern states. Repeatedly thwarted in his attempts to return to the South by hastily positioned Union forces and state militia, Morgan eventually surrendered what was left of his command in northeastern Ohio. He escaped through Ohio, and casually took a train to Cincinnati, where he crossed the Ohio River.
what i fond MOST interesting about this story was that he was under orders NOT to attack the north behind the lines
so even among the rebels he was a rebel... i kinda like that
so here it is
the Rebel
1095 steel 7 1/4 inch blade 5 inch handle
black linen Micarta
main bevel is a flat grind the secondary is a scandi
thanks for looking
