While Bill Scagel is most recognized for his camp and hunting knives, he also crafted various pieces of cutlery more suitable for a kitchen setting. This small fillet style knife features a trailing point blade. Obverse cheek is crisply marked with Bill's signature kris stamp. The blade exhibits a pleasing gray patina with blemishes and evidence of sharpening. The knife features two piece bone scales retained by two aluminum pins on each side. The scales remain intact with light cracking throughout. CONDITION: Good. This knife was obtained at Scagel's property by John Gordon Breland, who was a policeman in Muskegon, Michigan. Upon his retirement, he did odd carpentry jobs, one of which was expanding Scagel's home or workshop. Breland was a lifelong hunter and selected these items from what Scagel had on hand in his shop.
Item Dimensions: L: 7 - 1/2"
