I like that squirrel too. There is a town next to me, Kent....Kent, Ohio home of the infamous Kent State University and the town has a "thing" for their black squirrels. A friend drew that for me.
Ok, the mighty 13" swingers, I have three the brass and wood one presently has lock up issues but the other two are fine. The wood and brass when fired has a mighty snap but then kicks back. Would consider offers on any of them.

What a collection. Just waiting to see how nice the knife I just bought from George is. I know I am sticking with white pearl only.

Hi top hat, the line
Personally I'm not a fan of the spring sticking out of the handle either, but so many awesome knives have spring like that.
Let us know how you like it to do the hives. I'll keep my eye open for a 13 inch for you.

The AKC arrived today! What a serious little snapper it is and minty too. Wasn't thinking 9" but I really dig it and the white pearl looks great in the light. Wish this site was easier to post pics. Still waiting on the 11" from George and betting that will be my favorite..just because it is out of the 60's! Thanks Jim for the great tip on this AKC! It's the real deal alright.

Glad to hear about the snap to it Johnny. As I mentioned, the blade grind is somewhat different than mine, so I'm assuming it's an earlier model which had a better snap than mine. The bayo grind on mine is the same as my AGA 9" Maltese which has the same "lazy" snap to it. Enjoy it Johnny!
