Welcome to iKnife Sweet Katie.

Hello and Welcome Katie

I'm not into fixed blade knives or folders as I am into Italian Stilettos and other automatics, but I like all sharp objects. What publications do you subscribe to and what other knife organizations do you participate?
You just joined an awesome forum. The members here are very
knowledgeable and eager to share their experience. Take some time to
review the various topics and when you have a chance please post a
photo or photos of your favorite knife.
Your new friend on the iKC Forum,
John

Hi Katie...Thanks for the comment on my Boatman knife and the info. Please double check your info as I think you will find it to be 1974 which is a 6 dot stamp. The knife I acquired is a 7 dot which is a 1973 stamp and it is not shown in the 1973 line up. I can find it in 1940-64 era, 65-69 era, then in the years of 70, 74, 75, 76, 77 & 79. As you will note 71, 72, & 73 is not shown and I think the 79 year was the last time any were made.

Thanks Katie for the additional thoughts and effort on the Boatman knife. I talked to Tony Foster yesterday and his thoughts on the knife is the same as yours. Thank you for your efforts and input and thank you for being a part of iKnife.  

Happy Birthday Katie!! Hope it's a Fantastic day! You deserve it!

What a surprise to see you here, I had no idea you were on iKC! and the Case Historian!

Thank you for the adding me as a friend! Hope your Mothers day was a good one!

It's funny that you and I have the same Fovorite kind of knives!!
