Lew,

I think and hoped that it is an eunjangdo. See for comparison the example in up. Maybe not so fancy like the one in up but I think that by this one I can be sure that it is authentic. And i like the well worked small blade with the mark.

Regards,

Detlef

You can see one on Kellams website. It's listed under fixed blades.

I am puzzled by the arabic(?) markings. Was it common on puukkos?

I'm rather convinced this is not a puukko. If it was a puukko you would have also a nice catch.

But the blade is different to that of the puukko or other scandinavian knives. Also the dress is a bit different. I can understand that Lew is seeing a puukko, but the difference in the dress is the metal strip or clip on the backside of the scabbard on wich the ring is attached. I've never seen something like that on scandinavian knives or puukkos.

The marking i don't know. Arabic? Maybe, but could also be an old asian language. As far as i know it is certainly not common on the puukko.

Hello Henk,

agree with all you have written. And I am with you that I don't think that is an arabic writing. Would be nice to read what our arabic friends will say about this.

Hello Lew,

they are indeed very similar! But look for example this pictures I found in the net. By the group picture look special the one in complete down on the right.
