Maker's name across the top of the blade below the guard is Z Jetton.
This is a big Bowie masquerading as a cleaver, or a big cleaver masquerading as a Bowie.
Wire tang knife blade on a faux plastic deer antler grip.
Little blue engraving of a deer on the butt end of the handle.
Brass crossguard, straight fuller obviously cut with a ball mill, 12 1/8" blade 3" and a hair at the belly,
Deep clip point. Knife weighs 2#, 3.5 oz.
Carbon steel. Spark test looks to show some silicon in the metal.
Got it at a garage sale. It looks fit to skin dinosaurs, and feels good in the hand....
This is my first post on these boards, so if I didn't get it in the right forum, feel free to tell me....
