Dan made this set of three as a custom set, with micarta scales for Sport Knife Throwing. Dan Dennehy made his first knife in 1941 and started making them for fellow Sailors and for Marines fighting in the South Pacific. One of his achievements in the late 1960s was donating, to the Daughters of the Republic of Texas, first Bowie knife on display at the Alamo in San Antonio, where it still is located in the gift shop museum.
In 1970, he was one of the 11 founders of the Knifemakers' Guild, along with prominent knifemakers and friends, Bob Loveless and A. Among the many owners of Dennehy knives were John Wayne, Lee Marvin, Clint Eastwood, Carlos Hathcock, Barry Goldwater, G. Gordon Liddy, musician Steve Miller and many other celebrities. His knives, adorned with the Dan-D shamrock logo, have been used by U. Military members in every war since World War II.
Each knife in this set is mint. They each measure a substantial 11.75" Long and 1.375" wide at the widest point. The unique Dan D Cold Stamp Logo and Micarta handles are in place as new. Each knife weighs 9.3oz. A total of 1lbs 11.9oz for the three.
