I love these. If it is marked Plata, on the scabbard, the fittings are silver. If marked Alpaca, fittings are nickel silver. (alloy of copper and nickel) Nice carbon steel blade makes a good knife.
Others know more and can tell you more.

Thank you for your nice words, Steve. I really appreciate it!

Hello

As the seal says, it is from the Argentine industry, produced by the firm JU _CA. It is at most, from the middle of the previous century. Apparently, the cord is a measure of security, when the knife comes out of the sheath, and to attach it to the belt, "shooter" Affectionately

Thank you, Fernando K.... Appreciate your comment!

Warning!: They are addictive, I have a few myself. ;)

I have a nice little Ju Ca that I use quite frequently, actually weekly.
It works quite well on my roast beef where we dine on Fridays. :)

Hi Stefan,
