This is my Uncles' knife fairly self explanatory if you read the note, anyone have something to add please do. He said he might take some better images so if you guys make enough noise I can use that to twist his arm a bit ;).

One of my thoughts is how does this knife do its' intended function? I don't get it, it seems much too bulky in every way.

My uncle didn't ask but does anyone know what it might be worth?
 
Very common in the Mexican border.They sell them in Curios shops.Marketed to US Tourists. Inexpensive about 20 US Dlls.
