Unfortunately, I have no contact with the person who bought it, nor do I have any idea where it was made, other than up-state New York. I have no pictures of it and am only able to provide a description. I’m looking for a knife maker who can give a quote for the knife, based on the desc. and est. value, so it can be turned over to our insurance company. If anyone has any idea, please let me know. I’m no-where near an expert on knifes and have provided the best description I could below.
* It was about 15 inches from from the tip to the base.
* The handle was made of a dark wood that had gold or brass finger slots for the index, middle and ring fingers then an open ended slot for the pinky.
* Each of the three finger slots had a gold spike protruding from it, similar to brass knuckles. The bottom of the blade also
contained the same type spike underneath the handle
* The handle was about 5.5 inches long, the blade was 9.5
* The back of the blade had a serated edge
Any ideas?
