Hello All.
I'm somewhat a novice with blade identification, and it's not in my normal relm of collecting. But something attracted me to this knife. I believe it's either Spanish or from the Canary Islands. It has an overall length of 12.25", with a blade length of 7.25", and a false back edge of 4.75". The edge is still somewhat sharp, but dull from age. Appears to have seen normal usage. It would seem difficult to age these knives (?). But this one does "look" old. Any guesses to origin and age would be most appreciated. There is a similar knife on Oriental Arms website, item # 14083, although a much better specimen. But the similarities appear obvious. Thanks for any help, and thanks for looking. Rick |
