Ruana knife?
I got a query from a friend as to what she should sell this knife for. I've never owned a Ruana and wouldn't know what their value is or even if it's real. The picture is not great but I thought I would check with you guys and see if anyone might have some info.

Re: Ruana knife?
Not my bailiwick, but that doesn’t look like any Rusna knife I’ve ever seen or read about.
It’s been etched with a vibration pen.
Not sure Ruana did that.

It's a Model 31B They don't do any of the big Bowies that I know of right now . In a old Catalog price was $760.0
I would be interested in it. Thanks Gary

Re: Ruana knife?
Thanks Gary! I'll send that info along to her. Her husband died recently from complications due to hepatitus b and she is selling all his things. I think she's been listing some of the items on ebay. I'll find out what her ebay id is.kennedy knives wrote: ↑Fri Apr 07, 2023 8:44 pm It's a Model 31B They don't do any of the big Bowies that I know of right now . In a old Catalog price was $760.0

Re: Ruana knife?
Well I see this knife is up for sale on ebay now. My sister's freind apparently didn't take my advice to start the listing at $400 and let the knife move to it's market value. She started it at $1195.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Intered in seeing how this sale goes, thanks.
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!
