hmmm.   that one is interesting.  I think I like it better than the first one to be honest.

Looks like it will feel small in the hand with that slim handle.  Good luck!

I'm looking at another old knife now.

No, I didn't.  Probably for the best.  Anyway, I thought it might be an interesting addition to my collection.

It brought $72.

ugh...   I just saw it has about an hour left...

questions that I just dont know...

*  blade length is only 4½" long.  Seems short for a bowie to me.

*  The blade shape makes me wonder if it is a full blade.  I dont know what a full blade shape is supposed to look like.

*  The handles scales look pretty tight to the full tang.

*  The pins look like they are sticking out more than I would have thought.

*  The stamping on the blade looks pretty good.

*  The main bevel on the blade look like it has been subjected to a grinder at some point.  On older knives, that seems fairly common though (unfortunately).

Good luck!!

Thoughts?  Are you sure?

There are several things that I am asking myself.  Now admittedly, I don't know much of anything about that brand...

Most of all of these things are probably easily answered by the most cursory research.
