THIS IS A RARE BIGUION CUT CO. KABAR KNIFE MADE BETWEEN 1923 AND 1937 ONLY. I HAVE BEEN COLLECTING KABAR AND UNION CUT CO. FOR MANY YEARS NOW AND THIS ONE IS A GREAT ONE IN GREAT CONDITION FOR THE AGE OR ANY AGE! THE BLADE IS IN GOOD CONDITION AND IS STAMPED ON ONE SIDE UNION CUT CO.
THE BLADE IS NEAR FULL AND MEASURES 4-1/4" LONG WITH A CLIP POINT AND A 2" FALSE EDGE ON THE TOP SPINE AND IS LITERALLY. RAZOR-SHARP WITH THUMB GROOVE NOTCHES DOWN THE BACK SPINE TO KEEP THE HAND FROM SLIPPING WHEN USING (SEE PICTURES). IT DOES HAVE PANTINA AND PITTING (SEE PICTURES). IT IS A NICE SIZE KNIFE MEASURES 8-1/2 OVERALL AND HAS A TALL THICK BLADE (SEE PICTURES).THE HANDLES ARE BEAUTIFUL AND PERFECT THICK, DARK DEEP GRAINED STAG WITH A LOT OF CHARATER AND NO CRACKS, CHIPS OR ANY IMPERFECTIONS NOT EVEN A STRESS CRACK! THEY HAVE STEEL PINS WITH RED, BRASS AND BLACK SPACERS ON EACH END, LOTS OF NICE COLOR AND ALL TIGHT. IT HAS A NICE FRONT FINGER METAL GUARD AND AN ALUMINUM REAR POMMEL ALSO TIGHT AND RIGHT. IT COMES WITH THE ORIGINAL KABAR LEATHER SHEATH WITH THE TOP HANDLE STRAP MISSING (SHOULD NOT BE HARD TO REPLACE).
THIS ONE IS A HARD FIND AND DOES NOT COME AROUND VERY OFTEN IT WOULD BE A VERY NICE COLLECTIBLE FOR ANY COLLECTOR, FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS.
