Hello

A series of personal interpretations, from the sources or bibliography, which seems to be fundamentally Domenech. Domenech is an Argentine essayist, and his expressions must submit to criticism.

He maintains that the gauchos were "forbidden" after the war of independence. Exactly the gauchos or criollos were the members of the liberating armies and later, of the fratricidal struggles. The facones, caroneros or no, like all type of knife, continued using, in spite of the real cedulas or the republican decrees.

You can stay calm. Nowhere have I argued that this FONCON CARONERO was made in the 19th century, but that it considered that the reconversion would be of the first half of the 20th century.

The illustration that accompanies your post says just "Shows a Creole hamstring knife" and in the right hand seems to have a knife or a short facon (not a CARONERO), whose pod is seen in the waist, on the back
