airportable Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Looks a rather well made item, in as much the finish of the knife and quality of the scabbard. Any marks at all on the blade or cross gaurd? A good general illustrated guide book I have is 'Fighting Knives-Frederick J Stephens' ISBN 0-85368-344-1... not sure if still in print. Andy.
