Hello and welcome to the Sunday Picture Show. Share your Buck knives with others by posting pictures of them here. New or old, plain or custom, user or safe queen, one or a collection, we love to see them all. This weekly tradition was started in 2010 by ItsTooEarly (Armand Hernandez) and Oregon (Steve Dunn). Help keep the tradition alive. Feel free to click that 'LIKE' but lets not let it replace discussing and complimenting each others knives. Above all, enjoy the show. DeSotoSky (Roger Yost)

“I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.”
The Shootist (1976) with Lauren Bacall, Ron Howard, and James Stewart
John Wayne's final film. A dying gunfighter spends his last days looking for a way to die with a minimum of pain and a maximum of dignity.
Born Marion Robert Morrison (1907-1979) he appeared in 140 films spanning the period 1930 to 1976.

If you hadn't already guessed, this weeks starter is a John Wayne themed limited edition made for Franklin Mint. Listed on the 1997 Projects List but no build quantity was given. I made a quick glance thru the 1997 Newsletters but found no mention there. I vaguely recall seeing the handle shield in silver also. Can anyone verify that? The handle is checkered Walnut and the frame deeply engraved Nickel Silver.
