BEAUTIFUL Old Guttman Edge Brand Germany Stag-Handle Carbon Steel Bowie Knife
With a THICK and sturdy carbon steel blade atop some of the most impressive sambar stag handle scales you'll ever come across, it's reinforced at the bolster with the classic bowie-knife cross-quillon that's designed to keep your fingers right where they belong--on your hand. This quillon is solid brass, large and strong enough to keep your fingers where they belong--on your hand. Handle scales are beautiful stag, hafted over a full tang using three old-fashioned brass pins, which give the piece an overall effect of antique refinement. It's a hand-forged piece of substance yet enjoys a surprisingly light feel in the hand, with exceptional balance. At 10.25" long with a 6.25" blade that's 3/16 thick, it's a massive piece of self-defense and woe be unto whomever might be stupid enough to get on the wrong end of it. It has a false edge but that edge is not sharpened, so the piece is entirely legal in Australia. The knife has been used and was made to be used but it has no real problems and will continue to serve for generations--ready to add some true heft and size to any collection.
An excellent knife for user or collector alike and one you'll rightly come to think of as an heirloom. Please think "yard sale" or "flea market" not "Walmart" or Nordstroms. If we've really screwed up, that's different, but I promise you that won't happen. That should work well for both of us.
