4 pounds of 154 CM? So you got the feather weight version then....nice! LoL!! That's a berautiful piece. I had no idea there was a Bicentennial Commerative set of knives out there like this. Of course I was only 17 then, but still, someone could have told me long before now!
Do you plan on securing knives 2-13? Please share if you already have additional one iof the set. Thanks for sharing this one...it's wonderful.
