    I was on my way back from an auction that didn't have anything interesting and my young lad wanted to go into an antique store that I was at myself a few weeks ago. So we went in to look around and the owner was there, so I asked if he got anything new in, in the way of de or straights. This is what he brought out

    Definitely a good score!

    WOW,. My blade has been used a little more than that one, and mine doesn't have a horn handle, my handle is made of wood, any way of dating these things.
    And is there any site that has values or info on these, I couldn't find alot of these on this site or %bay.
    Thanks for any and all help
