GERMAN SOLINGEN BOWIE - $145
QR Code Link to This Post
THIS IS A FACTORY ORIGINAL ASSOCIATED CUTLERY FIXED BLADE, HUNTING / SKINNING / SURVIVAL BOWIE KNIFE WITH LEATHER SHEATH. QUALITY MADE IN SOLINGEN, GERMANY. IT FEATURES A 6 AND 1/4" TRAILING POINT BLADE AND STAG ELK ANTLER HANDLE WITH ASSORTED SPACERS, ALUMINUM POMMEL, BRASS GUARD AND MUSHROOM CAP END. IT MEASURES 10" IN TOTAL LENGTH. THIS QUALITY GERMAN MADE HUNTING KNIFE IS LIKE NEW AND HAS NEVER BEEN USED. THE ELK BONE HANDLE IS SOLID AND THE 1" WIDE BLADE STILL HAS THE FACTORY EDGE AND HAS NEVER HAD ANY ADDITIONAL SHARPENING.
I AM THE ONLY OWNER OF THIS KNIFE AND RECEIVED IT AS A GIFT, CIRCA 1970. AS A 10 YEAR OLD BOY, THIS WAS MY PRIZED POSSESSION AND I ONLY WORE IT ON MY BELT DURING WALKS THROUGH THE FOREST NEAR MY HOME WITH NEVER A NEED TO PUT IT TO USE. THE BEAUTY AND ARTFUL DESIGN OF THIS KNIFE FASCINATED ME THEN AND CONTINUES EVEN TO THIS DAY. MY FASCINATION WITH REMOVING IT FROM ITS SHEATH, LOOKING AT IT AND SHOWING IT OFF LED TO A FEW OF THE STITCHES ON THE RIGHT SIDE JUST BELOW AND AROUND THE TOP RIVET TO COME LOOSE (SEE PHOTO). A LITTLE STITCHING USING THE ORIGINAL HOLES AS A GUIDE SHOULD SNUG IT BACK UP NICELY.
