Anyone have a nice replica 1918 knuckle knife for sale or tell me who makes a good copy, I've seen some really bad copies and I'm looking for a nice one?
Thanks guys,
Greg

I have a copy i got some 28 years ago. The older copies are better. I might sell mine but while it's a good copy it has a manufacturing flaw in the grip. Looks as to be a casting flaw. -
Here is my copy. Sorry it's not a good photo all I have right now. You cannot see the flaw on it. And the blade is in a scabbard. The blade is kind of week looking as it it might break off in use. The Blade is easy to spot as a fake because it was chrome plated. I wonder if there is a custom knife maker who could copy the blade with a quality blade. Then it would be worth keeping.
Best knife to have if you ever need to defend yourself from a break in with a knife. I bought it via mail order in 1980 or 81
