Default Recent Native American Knife

The clever use of old sheep shears was impressive. Sheep have been here for sometime ,read 100,000 head here in 1664. I'm hoping the logo which, I think reads Pound, a harder look maybe it's bouno, may be familiar to Forumites, it could have come from any English speaking country, or now italy. The beads caused some concern, until I looked closer they too appear fairly old the copper rivets and wire seem to have some age. Your thoughts are greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Steve

Further research shows older shears were in three pieces and riveted. It was puzzling how someone without tools made the holes in metal.
