Yep, that looks like a Holler etch, Billy.

You can see this etch pictured on page 203 of Wayne's book, but on a Seilheimer marked blade. I have this etch on an unmarked blade like the one pictured here.

Holler etches are often faked and the angle of the pictures does not permit good viewing of the etch details. So, while the etch looks pretty and well detailed, I would like to see better and straight on shots of the etch, especially the bookends. Sort of like this.
