Yeah, the Civil War knife is real fishy also.

How can that have a pristine looking copper bail and brass rivet while the steel looks like it has been around a while, certainly not from the Civil War. He does have some other fishy stuff.
The Clovis point looks wrong, shape is more like a dart (4,000 to 1,000 years ago)(9,000 to 11,000 years ago for the Clovis found in New Mexico, originally), the Catlinite Pipe would be from 1600 at the earliest, most likely last year. The Native Americans did not have horses until after the Spanish landed in the America's. They only had horses for about 150 years before the Indian Wars.
All in all, I am not familiar with most of his knives but his artifacts are all suspect or fake, so, I can't trust the rest.
That copper bail could not look that good.

It's interesting that American Knife & Shear has an exact keystone shield as Schatt & Morgan, what are the chances of that happening.. :roll: :roll:

I personally think that the guy is full of Chili Beans ::paranoid::
