OK, the story won't cost you anything. About 20 or 25 years ago, one of my dad's friends went home to the phillipines to visit his family.
I was asked if I wanted a souvenier. Being the budding little knife freak, I asked for a Bali-song.
He brought this one back for me. It was hand made. The blade is steel (not stainless)
The bolsters are brass and the scales are bone. The knife is in good shape, although there are some small spots of rust on the blade.
The brass could use a polishing.
There is also a hairline crack in one of the bone scales, but it is not easy to see unless you know where it is.
What I am looking for:
Spyderco Kumo
I like automatic knives. I also like military style fixed blade knives.
Benchmade Nimravus
Gerber LMT II
Buck Intrepid
Becker
