    I was surprised @ how few father / daughter sets are out there. Then, most of the ones that are .. are sold out. What good is that ?
    Just googled Ocoee River Cutlery .. its a Frost brand. The others are considerably more pricey.

    If I come across something I'll post. However, did a rather thorough search already.

    Good luck on this one, JJ.
