Hey, got this knife a few years back and it's too purty for me to use. I know nothing about the maker or the steel (if I had to guess I'd say 1095 and 15n20 since that seems to be what a lot of damascus is these days). The handles are buffalo horn with brass spacers and bolsters and a brass handguard. There is one very small occlusion in one section of the horn scales. It's been like that since I bought it; you'd not really notice it unless someone pointed it out, but thought you might want to know; it's visible if you look at the top left of the second scale in the second photo). OAL is 14 3/4" and the blade is 9 3/4" x 2 3/8 (at its widest point) x 3/16" thick. It is truly a beast. Perfect for re-enactors of all sorts, camp knife, or just to admire.
Hasn't been sharpened--wouldn't say it has a razor edge but its pretty sharp. Comes with a huge leather sheath as well. I bought it new and its been sitting on top of my safe ever since. I'm trying to move away from safe queens and toward users only.
I want you to be happy. If you are dissatisfied with anything, let me know so I can fix it. Sales and trades can all be undone if needed.
I'm going to throw it out there at $79 shipping and paypal included (PMO ok too).
If that price is unfair, I'm sure the forumites will let me know
Only trades I'd be interested in at this point would be bussekin (users are fine too; no swamp wardens/scrapivores) although really looking for cash at this point.
Please send an email or PM if interested as well as posting here. Thanks for looking!
