PoD Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 Antique 19th Century Navaja, A Spanish Folding Pocket Knife with Etched Blade Engraved Recuerdo and stamped with the makers mark of a sword and the name Riberon, 7.5 inches Folded 12.5 inches Open. The knife is in good solid condition with no loose parts however the very tip of the blade has been snapped off by a previous owner. One of the brass panels is a little dented too but has no sharp bits and actually looks worse in the pictures than it is. $196 ...and then I discovered the wine...

John Maddox Roberts Posted June 8, 2011 Posted June 8, 2011 What is the nonwhite handle scale material? I love these knives.
PoD Posted June 8, 2011 Author Posted June 8, 2011 I'm not sure to tell you the truth. I thinks its horn as its transparent with an orange/brown tint. Theres a small metal sparrow.bird design inlaid into the one on the reverse of the knife ...and then I discovered the wine...
Capt. Bo of the WTF co. Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 If I had not just spent $1100 on my truck that would be mine for sure. OUCH!!! Sorry to hear that. Aren't these the knives that we were discussing some at Fort De Chartres? I'd love to put that to my grinder for sure! Beautiful workmanship. Bo
