On Saturday, June 8th, 2013 at 12PM Pacific, Emerson Knives will broadcast live, their 5th Virtual Knife Show and Auction.
Here, Ernest Emerson holds the CQC-6 Chris Kyle commemorative knife. Proceeds will go to his widow and family.
Below you can see the engraving on the blade. It’s one hell of a knife dedicated to a guy who’s EDC was Emerson. In fact, Chris and Ernie were in the early stages of a signature knife when he was tragically killed.
There are several other custom models up for auction but this one in particular caught my eye.
The handle on the Patriot was crafted from a piece of oak wood collected from George Washington’s farm. The hunk of stump is dated 240 years old and was alive during the period that Washington was not only alive, but also fought for this great nation and served as its first President. Talk about owning a piece of history! The winner of this knife will have something to talk about and spur research for years to come.
