http://cgi.ebay.com/Robeson-Shur-Edge-S ... dZViewItem Very odd looking bolster on this knife. Is that the way it should look or is the picture distorted?

I have had that happen to me! The knife moved while it was being scanned!!

He'll probably change the pic if someone writes to him!

The knife is perfect...Really it is, the problem is your eyes

are playing tricks with you..

I agree with all of you that this is just a bad picture or else somebody left this on the railroad tracks overnight..I would really like to see a good picture of this knife though, especially since it's a lockback..

Thanks for sharing,

Sunburst

Gives a new meaning to the name "crooked knife"

VERY SPECIAL!! Only one of each made! Parker's book lists them at $4,000 each, but I am starting the bidding at only$2,999.99.
Now's your chance to virtually steal a gen-you-whine Schrade prototype.
The pictures don't do them justice. They are actually very SHINEY!! They are mint for their age!
Just like a new copper penny! I, errrr YOU won't regret buying these knives! Buy both and save on shipping! I do not take paypal, and all sales are FINAL. I will tell you how much shipping is, at the end of the auction!!
Don't just stand there, BID!!!
Hubba Hubba!! Step right up!!!

Hey charlie, I think you forgot to mention the certificate of authenticity from the schrade factory collection

Charlie,

I'm really interested in that second knife...it looks sweet! That looks like sawcut Sandbar material for the handles.

Oh, yeah...do you have the original sheath for that beauty?

Bill

P. S.
Is that a Confederate or Union Bowie knife?

How could I forget the Schrade Civil war Jim Bowie certificates

No No No El Lobo, No. Please no more SANDBAR STAG! Besides, doesn't that wildly exotic and expensive material have it's own thread here?

Sorry Phil.
I just got so caught up in the moment.
