West Cut knife

Post by Meigscl »

I have an west-cut knife that I wanted to find some info about the age of it . Where can I find this information? Mainly I'm looking at dating when it was made.

And if I may add Meigscl, they had/have some of the best steel in their blades. Only downfall to them for me is the cell. handles crack, break, and gas pretty easy sometimes. I would like to get another one like I have now. Come to think of it, olcut, you interested in letting the one you have go? PM me if you do. We can try to work out something.
A dull knife is like an empty wallet, no need to carry it.
