Post by DMLEATH »

That was helpful! I looked on eBay and there are a few almost identical under Jim Bowie Germany. Thanks again!

Does anyone know the history of the German Eye knives with the Jim Bowie blade etch? Origin?

I am also curious about the Jim Bowie/German eye history.
Here is one with Alabama copperhead etched on the blade.

If I recall it correctly, the "Olbertz" cutlery in Solingen made these...they made, Bulldog, Klaas and several more...
