Has anyone ever seen or used a knife like this before? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...71&rd=1 ? It looks really cool! <img src="/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

WOW! I joked years ago about knapping a Swiss Army Knife on a excavation. It is a presentation piece true, but this is an old tradition. There are flint knives from Denmark that were duplicates of later bronze cast patterns. I imagine some master of the old traditions showing he could do anything they could do <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Recent study postulates a second migration to the New World from the EAST! A archaeologist studying the so called clovis/folsum points noticed a similarity to illustrations of european collections. A personal inspection of the artifacts and waste flakes revealed near duplication in tradition. Now THAT is being Equipped to Survive! <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
