Comments: Roderick Caribou Chappel created what most custom knife makers strive for… a distinct look. Best known for his sweeping grinds and sculpted handles, this knife features both. I have been collecting Rod’s knives for over 35 years. This is the only Hunting Cheetah MKII Bowie I have ever seen. This one is marked serial #01. This knife was custom made on June 24th, 2003, in Arlington, Washington.
