Original?

Post by upnorth »

Can anyone tell me if this knife has legit handle shape? I'd like to bid on it, but have never seen the pattern in person. It seems to be a 123EW in the Catalog E, p.100.

Schrade Cutlery banana knife...

I'd say it's legitimate. I collected hawbills and such for several years and there were several companies that made a banana knife. I have seem Remington, Case Tested and I can't remember what else, off hand. I, personally, wouldn't be afraid of it. Just my humble opinion.
