Detlef: Glad to read that the scales are horn. Does the handle have metallic liners? If you can, please take a close-up photo of the ARMERIA, the ZZ and anything else that may give us a clue; Maybe I can trace its origins from one of my reference books.
Gavin: That's a nice one, and yes, there's something very special about navajas. Fernado: Thanks for the correction, but keep in mind that many of the cutlers were illiterate, so bad spelling was the norm, rather than the exception And here's my loose tranlsation into English: "Cuando acaricia mi mano" "la cacha de esta navaja" hasta los valientes tremblan" (tremble) "al ver mis bravas hazañas" (feats) When my hands caress the handle of this navaja Even the brave tremble After having seen my brave feats.
