Description
This Dog Tag comes from a very large, Hand Selected collection of a great Customer of mine who recently passed away. This collection contains many knives from Makers / Brands that I do not normally carry – I will list them all as time allows.
This Dog Tag was purchased directly from me and has never been used or worn
