I traded for an older Hibben fantasy piece. This is not one of the UC knives. This is one he made. I have put up some pics and was hoping someone may be able to give me some info on it. Anything I could find about it would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Tom Carey

It looks like a cross between the Odyssey, or 2001 Fighter (handle & pommel), the Hornet (hilt and guard) and the Rambo knife (blade).
How much do you want for it?

Thanks for info. At this point I am not interested in selling it. I want to find out what it is exactly and get an idea what it is worth. I may even keep it but knowing me it will not be for long.

Tom, taking another look I would say this is an early Hibben fantasy piece. You can definetely see the influence of W.W. Cronk.
