Mr Billy Brantley of LionHeart Filmworks is producing an limited edition (1,000) replica of the pocket knife Lincoln carried with him on the night of his assassination. It comes in a collectors case and is priced at $119.00 postage paid.

With all the knife collectors out there, this probably will not last long.

I would love to own one. There is so much to buy- and so little money!

I agree Bill. I'm saving my $$ for Springfield. If I don't spend all my allowance, then maybe I'll get one. I may have to ask Santa to get me one for Christmas. Since I never got that Red Rider BB Gun, maybe I stand a chance. I just have to decide if being "really good" is worth the trouble.

OMG!

I own what almost amounts to an exact replica of this knife - and never knew it. I've had this since I was about 10 years old. My father bought one for me and one for my sister years ago at a small local hardware store he used to visit frequently. The differences are that mine is mother of pearl instead of ivory and lacks the little plate in the middle. I think he paid about $.50 for it. I'll treasure it even more now!

Gene: Springfield is on my mind too. We have to hit that bookstore again!

It looks like a wonderful collectors item- even has the crack. I'll probably get it eventually- although it is saying there are only 500 made.

We'll, I ordered it. It's a small sized item but I'm running out of room for things guys. I'm thinking Donna is going to take issue someday with all my "flub dubs!"

Interesting that Lincoln had two pairs of glasses on his person- I wonder why?

I fogot to mention that I received the knife and was not disappointed in the least. It's beautifully done and packaged very professionally.

I also got the knife and I was very happy. I actually bought two and had sent the other one to Dr. Wayne C. Temple.

Wow! Did Dr. Temple reply?

Yes, he did.
