very nice knife, the blade looks to be in great shape, being locked up for 100 years didnt hurt that one.

Wow that's nice.  I'd love to have a design like that as a user (with more of a single guard & of course far less valuable).

You should see if there is a sheath maker than can reproduce that whole rig, I'd love to see rigs like this for sale for other knives.

WOW! I could only ever dream of owning something like this.

Creig, I am fascinated by this beautiful old knife and it's history.I have a few questions---Do you know the name of the jail or the city where the knife was found??--Also, to me, the monogram  looks more like a cattle or horse brand I am no authority on reading cattle/ horse brands but there are Western resources that are--A pic might help identify the brand, which might lead you to the gunfighter. Just my thoughts on the subject.

Creig,

Could you post a better shot of the tang stamp, please?

I just wish I could track down who this one belonged to. It has a monogram on the upper part of the scabbard but I have not been able to ID it yet. Hopefully one day.

That is beautiful! That leather looks to be in pretty good shape for as old as it is. I really like the shape of that knife - the handle and the blade!
