    Default Latest addition/RAD.

    Picked up this Erik Antonburg the other day. Its got the shark on it so I think from what I've read its from around 1960. Please correct me if I'm wrong on this.

    A bit on the small side as its 5/8 at the widest point. Medium hone ware and the bevel is a little wide in the middle of the blade. Hoping I can get the bevel corrected a touch and tighten the pins but besides that, its in pretty good shape.

    I was just looking to pick up another Sweed at a low price and I found this one for 23 bucks.

    The bevel makes it look as if it has a frown, but it doesn't and a few notches in the top edge of the scales from closing improperly. Sorry for the fuzzy pics. Its bed time and just wanted to share.

    Oops! Just noticed the girly pic. I think its OK though.

    It’s a nice looking blade. I’ve had a couple of EA Berg faux framebacks. They weren’t bad at all.

    That's one of the turn-ons for me too, is the shoulder-less. Ebay find. With the damage on the edge of the scales I might make a new set of shoes for it in the future. Who knows. This makes my third Swedish blade.

    Nice find. Congrats on the score. As you have said it looks to be in pretty good shape.
