Well here it is the very same knife as it appears above! This time having been cleaned, polished and a chip ground away by Stanley May! http://www.iknifecollector.com/profile/StanleyMay?xg_source=profile...

Here is a close up of the tang stamp of that same knife! What was a cast off on eBay is now a great example of Colonial Cutlery at a point in time. Great knife...now for a bail!
