Tell me about this weird knife?

Post by Psmtz »

I bought this knife at a gun show in San Antonio, Texas for $20. I just liked that it looked odd, kinda Art Deco and the construction seems solid. The blade says Pakistan on it. I don't know. I guess it could also be one of those cheap carnival knives. Anything anyone can tell me about it? Thank you.

Pakistan says it all and points toward your carnival knife idea. Actually I would not have guessed good ole Paki Stan had made it. It's kinda different for that guy...

Welcome to AAPK.

You sure that's a knife and not a hood ornament off a '48 Hudson? :lol: :lol:

Appears that the maker is imitating a picture of an art knife. I have seen that general pattern with the fluted handles in Blade. It cost several K and was a fine piece of blade art. It had no relation to the Paki knife in terms of beauty and quality;just the general pattern.
