TonyLaPetri Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/05/05 Posts: 6909 Loc: Glen Head NY	Guido, That is a beautiful #1 with exquisite art work! And I bet that trapper had to also be a fighter at one time or another! _________________________ Tony LaPetri RKS#1885 RKCC CM-022

Peter_Kaufman Knife Enthusiast Registered: 02/14/08 Posts: 2587 Loc: Southeast Utah	Guido Great looking knife and the scrimshaw is amazing in the detail. I hope you keep it displayed and not hidden in a drawer.

Rick Magee Knife Enthusiast Registered: 07/27/10 Posts: 693	That "All Purpose" #1 would make a great trapper and mountain man knife! Especially with the single hilt and thumb notches. Is that a six inch blade? It looks perfect. _________________________ RKS #2911

Captain Chris Stanaback Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/14/05 Posts: 12898 Loc: Central Florida	As far as the "Purists" go (I'm not even sure what that would be) the #1 with a single hilt and thumb notches is nothing more than an "improved" #5, Camp and Trail. The thumb nothces are cut into the top cutout, leaving less chance of slippage. The "Crow's beak" prevents the hand from slipping off the back of the knife, making it ideal for trapping muskrat, beaver or mink. I think this Italian guy is way ahead of the curve on this one. Bravo Guido, Capt. Chris _________________________ Capt.Chris Stanaback RKCC/RKCA Founder RKS #016 NRA Lifetime Member CAPTSTANABACK@aol.com WEBSITE: www.captstanaback.com
