That is cool! I think the e-bay is a repro, just my opinion. You may want to check a knife collector page.

Not quite. Blade opens opposite to the one he found. Might be part of a series, though.

Have to agree here... notice a few things are different...
1. blade opens on the other side on the ebay knife
2. Blade shape is different
3.? I am not really sure if bass (ebay is brass) takes on rust like that... it gets a greenish tarnish i know but I dont know it it will then rust up?


hope you can clean it up and repost it..
