I’ll have to post a thread on it when I get it cleaned up and back in order.
This is a 6.5’ Champion Tooth.

Thanks guys!
I guess “easily carried” must be relative. lol
I’m going to have to learn how to clean up the blade...
It’s got an embossing that reads:

I haven’t seen another with the labels still on it.
In fact there is one of these in a museum here in Washington. The museum made copies of the labels on this one, in order to make facsimiles of these labels for the one in the museum.
Here are a couple photos of one someone set up. Apparently the latter ones were painted red, the wood on mine is beautiful oak.

..and I stand corrected. There is one on eBay right now with at least the reminents of labels and a box! Did they come with a box? I missed an eBay sale on one of their catalogs, that would have been nice to have. :/

Ooh. That one on eBay doesn’t have the bar that attaches to the tip of the blade with the spring loaded sliding stabilizer on it. There is no replacing that piece, good luck even trying to reproduce it.

There are some gems in the rough in that lot. My eyes were drawn to the hole punches first.
