Its still out there. Set up at a gun show (Springfield, Mo) a couple weeks ago and this walked in the door. A woman and her husband brought it in. She told me her uncle brought it home fromm WW2. And as long as she could remember it was on his mantle (im assuming she meant hanging above his mantle) because of the nail hole in the hanger. The strap to hold the dagger in place is broken. But is pretty nice besides that (needs to be cleaned up).
Never argue with an idiot, he will only drag you down to his level and beat you with experience. And remember the early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

Rick,
Great looking TeNo rig, the knot really dresses it up. Can we see some more pics of the hewer?

Rick,
Great hewer indeed, it's got the patina of originality all over it. What's the digits & are they stamped or etched?
