Rehandled Valley Forge
Here's a rehandled Valley Forge lockback. The jigging is all sorts of wrong. It should be a crime to put those handles on a knife like that.

Re: Rehandled Valley Forge
Not sure where the handles came from but they sure are ugly. Not even close to correct and not the first time this seller has listed a knife that wasn't right.

Re: Rehandled Valley Forge
I don't know Valley Forge from Adam's off Aunt, but if the frame and blade are original, it would be worth it to buy the knife and rehandle it again.
It's a no reserve auction, starting at 99 cents.
Or, it's a breast cancer research item and should be given to one's female significant other or raffled off to raise money for cancer research.

Re: Rehandled Valley Forge
That's what I was thinking Charlie.I saw a picture of those handles before. It was by the definition of egregious.
Here's a picture of mine that's been roughly cleaned or sharpened.
