STORYTELLER 1
The collector's Edition Stockman's Knife is dedicated to Jesse Chisolm, namesake of the Chisolm Trail, army scout, prospector, cattleman, rancher, and trailmaster - extraordinaire. Texans still talk about the way he created safe passage for a string of ox-wagons by driving a hundred mustangs back and forth at the river crossings to pack the quicksands.
STORYTELLER 2
The Boker Collector's editions Congress Knife is inspired by the gentleman from Tennessee himself, the Honorable David Crockett ("Now, now, you jus call me Davy"), Indian fighter, bear wrestler, guerilla colonel under General Andy Jackson ("You might tell 'em how I wupped Mike Fink"), hero of the Alamo, and the man who carried the voice of the American wilderness to the shores of the Potomac. Maybe he was carrting a versatile knife like this one at the time.
STORYTELLER 3
The Collector's Edition Trapper's Knife commemorates the trapper's trapper and the undisputed King of The Big Sky, Jim Bridger. Fur trader, discoverer of The Great Salt Lake, trail scout for the Union-Pacific, Bridger's determination to see what was over the next mountain led him to open a world that Lewis and Clark had only mapped, so that between 1836 and 1848 almost all of the American west, from the Mississippi to the Pacific, and from the Milk River to the Arkansas, was known as Jim Bridger's Territory.
