It does explain why Arrows were always the same price regardless of size until Camp made dies for each individual size. The blades carry the now familiar numbers 1 - 8 stamped into the eye side.
Boodawg- Did Dolt ever sell one of those leather nut tool holders beyond your example?

As far as I know, Dolt himself never even SAW one; Dennis made just a few after Lauria passed the forging torch, so to speak, to him. Dennis punched a few (how many?) cleaning tool Dolsters out and gave them to friends. Probably none were ever sold, tho Lauria would know since they'd have been sold through West Ridge.

I asked because of the pattern. Looks much bigger than his regular holsters.
Dolt Sheath?!?

I'm actually not sure what pattern Dennis used to make the nutcleaner holsters. He'll be able to answer that...

I guess I really want to know who Hennek is/ was. If he was pounding Dolt blanks into pins and nut tools, is he still around? What is his story? Mr. Hennek, if you are already on this thread, please excuse my ignorance:)

You definitely have a little catching up to do!

Another classic shot from the NA repeat taken from Galen's Vertical World of Yosemite- the Book of Dreams!
Looks like a Cobra Hook, too!

Would you post that Cobra on this thread. Then perhaps somebody will have a Curly Tailed Cobra for show and tell. The "for slight overhangs" probably scared people off. LOL

I read all of the original posts by Don earlier in the weekend and have been thinking about them and the life of Bill Feuerer on and off since. I feel like I do after watching an especially poignant movie. What a great contribution.

You know what would be really awesome is a stack of those Dolt Logo Patches from the boots.
