Case xx Desert Prince

[gradall5200]

While on a little trip to hannibal MO. this weekend we were on our way and this knife caught my eye. Only $10 bucks and Id never seen one like it before. Now granted its missing the handle but the blade is perfect and Like I said its one I wasnt familiar with and thought maybe it would make for a good custom handle knife or a good trader. Either way I thought Id see if any of you guys were familiar with this perticular knife pretty neat blade I thought. Thanks- Joel

I don't have a clue about the knife, but it is very cool and a great way to spend $10. Definitely an exotic rehandle should be considered! Make it YOUR own Desert Prince.

Jeez Joel, a guy could really skew something up with that sticker. Nice find.



Here's what one looks like new.

Looks like yours was made in1981. I don't think that they made this pattern for very long.

Cool! I've never seen one of those. Slap some nice wood on there, and post pics!

I think that might be one to turn Oupa loose on with simple instructions to go exotic and Arabian Nights on it.

Or have Muskrat Man put a real nice "Desert" Ironwood set of scales on it.

Then again, you might be planning on having a go at it yourself. Whatever you do, let us see it when it's done!
