Superb knife, which site did you order it from??
Wanted to order a ka-bar, but those shipping rates cost more than the knife.

Either you are 3 feet tall or that is one substantial knife!
Congrats,

Congrats. Nice knife. The Recon 1 is an awesome folder as well.
Now lets see some marks of use. That heavy bowie chops wood like a beaver on steroids.
A little guidance on the ebay buying process and the seller details will help greatly, if you would be so kind.
Thanks bro.
