The puñal criollo is an utility knife for all sorts of work. Gauchos were poor man, but the land owners, burocrats and army officers could indulge on silver mounted puñales and facones. They don´t show in México, but I´m member of an argentinean forum where most of the best badesmiths and some of the best siversmiths from Argentina joins. I can put you in contact with people which mounts puñales criollos on chased silver or nickel silver.
No, I don´t collect them, nor have any. Regards Gonzalo Last edited by Gonzalo G; 11th September 2008 at 11:50 AM. |
