What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Last one of MANSON's knife
Cleaned (someone had pretty much already crudely cleaned the patina off), smartly sharpened, preserved ...
From abuse and neglect, the MANSON SHEFFIELD rises, able and ready to do work again
A worn and scarred old warrior. Boy what a Bowie.
150+yrs to get to right about ... here ...

Not my Bowie or one like I have. Well, steel is similar I guess.
His looks to me to be a Wostenholm or Manhattan. If not, they copied it maybe.
But is it really a Sheffield Bowie? ... wouldn't be shocked to learn it's a Sheffield Dagger.
Just an interesting picture ... and maybe one day I'll ask him

HA !!! ... too scary there Will LOL
And thank you sir. I think I really like old knives. I have lots of time and just enjoy messing with them.
I'd never sell one and no one to pass on to, so I'll just enjoy them and enjoy sharing them. Thanks Will
