Of course i had to think about it (for about a millisecond), but then i took the plunge, :D

I'd have felt a bit guilty paying that  :angel:

What a deal!
I'm not taking any more mod orders at present, sorry.

That's a heck of a deal for a really nice knife. I sold a similar Puma about 6 months ago, for my father. He bought it while stationed in England, in 1969. I got about $145 for it, and it wasn't as nice as yours.
