I thought maybe it was a blade of one of those old seven day sets with no handle or tang, but I can't see inside.
Anyway, seems to have been quite loved.

there is no steel in that tang, except about one centimeter close to its end, where the blade starts.
Guess it was a repair.

Yes, the scales are crap.
Black plastic, too thin and too long.
I'm ot sure a rescale would be worth it, cause the blade has a little clack near the tang.
Brass cleaned up nicely in the meantime....

Strange ....
Now was it meant that way or was it a desperate repair?
Your opinion on this?
