Default And yet another Gunong, laminated blade

Please let me know if you get tired of seeing these.
4 3/8" (111 mm) laminated blade. Looks like it's seen some repair and refurbishing over it's life. The ferrule has steel strips rivetted on, and the scabbard has aluminum bands that look like a later repair.

Steve

There is No way I would ever get tired of looking at these. The lamination on the blade of this is wonderful and the repairs just adds to the overall character of the piece. I think at times that not enough attention has been paid to these older blades that have seen better days and carry the scars of age and use and sometimes misuse in favor of the more perfect and mostly unused examples. But enough of my ramblings, another great find Steve!!!
