Another update from Eddy Petersen. He wrote
I spoke with former lodge advisor to gain some insight as to the bolo’s provenance. The bolos were given out beginning in 2003 to one (a) per lodge and (b) per chapter as recognition of their service. The bolos were hand crafted by Tony Pinnavaia.

Does anyone know how many years this was used?
