I don't generally post Ebay auctions to this forum, but this knife certainly qualifies. It has a good bit of "Lore" about it.
Auction has ended. Somebody bought a nice old knife.

Re: Boy, Howdie! Excelsior
That one is beyond my price range but I can admire it for free. What a fine example of old tiime American made cutlery. That knife displays quality construction intended to be put to work.
Thanks for sharing it with us Charlie.

Re: Boy, Howdie! Excelsior
There cant be too many of these around, which is my best excuse for showing this one. Also, they were made right up the road from me. It's used up quite a bit, but so well made. Still very snappy!
