What era?
« on: March 12, 2021, 02:15:40 AM »
So, I've got a knife that a dear friend made for me a few years back and would like to include it in my kit. Would it fit into the 1750s era? Or is a blade style like that more 1820s-18140s?

     1870-1880 southwest by length and blade style.

So, alittle more cowboy action and alittle less take it to rendezvous. Bummer. Oh, well. Any excuse to by another knife.

Thanks,  Jordan

   Sorry, I really like the knife, I'd carry it as a everyday knife but for 18th century best to keep looking.  Lots of traditional trade type knives for sale, Track of the Wolf used to carry some at great prices unless your looking for something unique.

Walks with gun - No worries. I figured it wasn't going to "Fit" that far back. I'd exhausted myself looking at online sources, so I figured I'd just ask before shelving the idea. The good news is that there are some REALLY talented bladesmiths on this forum and I want me another blade.

P.S. This is my everyday knife. Goes on with my pants every morning.
