What jumped out at me was that ancient handmade basically Khukuri shaped item. You don't see ones like that very often. All the Rugers were great also

Hey Mike, You have quite a collection of those flat tops! I especially like the BKH-40 with box AND shipper. Nice collection of Ruger Stag grips too. I would sure like you to bring a display to our OGCA display show. We have center aisle at their July show which is coming up this weekend, July 17 & 18. Great display Mike. brass frame/Lee E

Thank you for your kind words and comments. Have always liked those ten inch Flattops. Not many built, none to speak of in MN for years, and always on my "hunt for" list. Kind of likewise on FACTORY stag grips and RSSE's. As far as the prehistoric relics go, they would be my favorite on foot searches. I believe we know so very little of these peoples and much of what is preached is pure bunkum. So, will continue to search for all those items I love, and feel I have to save.
