Blue:

Is it that the hilt looks really flat and thin that bothers you? I have seen similar thin hilts before on these knives.

Yeah, the flatness bothers me. Doesn't look like it was designed to be used. On the other hand that blade edge has clearly been grinded off from a lifetime of use. So clearly it was a user.
