Blade is wickedly, razor sharp carbon steel, and looks like it was made from an old file. Handles are beautiful old wood of some kind, a little crudely but expertly fitted over a full and fatted tang with some hand-wrought iron rivets. The knife is solid throughout, measuring 8.5" long with a 4.75" blade.
Pictures tell the real story. A GREAT find by any measure.Please think "yard sale" or "flea market" not "Walmart" or Nordstroms. If we've really screwed up, that's different, but I promise you that won't happen. That should work well for both of us.
