I bought this knife at a gun show. It was on a table of a guy who deals in neat things that attract his attention, so lots of odd things. He had no memory of when or where he got it. I wasn't really interested in buying it, but picked it up to examine the craftsmanship and very quickly began to want it. Super fit in my hand and great craftsmanship. It has a maker name, but based on how I read it I could not find any info on the web. What do you all think of it? I paid $150, is it wise to pay that much for unknown maker damascus knives?

I hate to say to but it looks an awful lot like the damascus knives I see on ebay all the time. I hope the maker sees it or someone know who he is. If you like it then you did ok but there is no telling what the materials are and if it has been heat treated properly. For $150 though not a bad price even if it is just a wall hanger.
 
I would agree with A.C., by the looks of the stag/(camel)bone, I would guess India or somewhere in the vicinity?
