historically I've been a big fan of Uncle Henry knives .... back in the 70's I purchased the bottom knife shown in the picture below .... a few months ago I purchased the top knife .... its easy to see the differences .... the new blade and handle aren't anywhere near as thick .... it sharpens easily and does seem to hold its edge .... frankly, the differences caught me by surprise

My uncle Henry Bowie. Great knife, never in the back country without it. 10" blade, stag handle.
I also have the one you posted. It is a real handy knife too and well made.

Don't you just love knives?

I am new to the forum and am just bouncing around & came across the Knife thread, years ago I collected the Schrade "Uncle Henry" & the "Schrade" with a few Camillus's tossed in. I only collected the sharpfinger model I am sure I still have a few in the shed, I will dig them out and post. although the knife forum doesn't seem to active

I sure do .. 8-) .. early on, if I was out in the woods, I had a 6 to 10" fixed blade in a sheath on my belt .... after a while I realized that while coming in very handy while camping, "Jeeping", hunting, etc, that they also tended to be cumbersome .... after a while I put them away and started carrying a Buck 110 Folding Hunter .... still do, I have one on belt right now .... given, at times the longer blades made shorter work of some task .... that loss seemed to be worth the gain in comfort .... I do admire your blades shown, they are truly impressive
