Hey guys:
Well, the old Boy Scout motto pays off for me once again... I helped a buddy out and refused payment for my "good deed". Once back at his house I helped unload his truck. I admired his Gravity Knife sitting on a table. He told me if I didn't sell it, and let my kids fight over it when I die, he would give it to me!
So, I agreed, got home and got the haze rust off of it and found what looks like a nice example. The blade is a little dark but totally untouched and you can see some cross graining too.
My question is: I've had these before, but I've not seen one without the Luft proof on the spike. What is the deal with this "S"?
Also, the lever is numbered "55" and everything else is blank. Is this an indicator of a certain maker or something?
Thanks,
Skip
