Hello all,

First post here. I have a knife that I tactically acquired years ago, and I am not sure where or who made it. I made a sheath for it from beaver tail and it has proved to be a quality blade. The only mark on it is "surgical steel" stamped on the side. I am wondering if anyone can give any information as to its origin. I found a picture on one on forum somewhere else, but couldn't find any details. I have only ever seen one other like it a decade or so ago. An elderly taxidermist used it and he had know idea where he got it.
 
Site won't let me upload the photo. I assume I need to be a member for a few days?.... I will return

The knife is about 9" long overall. Has a layered maroon and white plastic (?) handle.

Search function.....lots of posts on how to post pictures.
Use a free host site like Imgur. Upload your pictures to the host, open the picture, copy the BBCode link and paste it here.
BBCode format looks like this-
[img]https://i.imgur.com/3BlA71j.jpg[/img]
Its the URL of the pictures location wrapped in img tags. The URL has to have a file type suffix, either .jpg, .gif or .png to work.
This format produces a picture in-line in the body of the post like this

No no, my friend Cassius M Clay. The OG, not Jr. Stabbed 4 dudes to extinction who broke into his house with boom sticks to end him. He used nothing but his knife. Oh and did I mention he was down with typhoid fever and also in his 80's?🤣
