Cap,

That knife on page 68 is a "WWII Hunter", the precursor to the model 3 (Check out my post on the Model 3 week). I have it on pretty good authority that it was Pete who coined the phrase "3 1/2", which he used to describe post late '45 Model 3 redesign blade grind upsweeps that are half way between a model 3 and a model 4. The 2nd knife I posted a photo of in the Model 3 week comes close to that discription.

Best as always,

Ron
