Hi all
Just wanted to show my latest acquisition and get some input. This Lady's knife is made up of the normal Leg knife and Diamond L'il. The blade and frame is from the normal leg knife but the scales (handles) are from the Diamond L'il knife. I bought this from a former employee, maybe one of y'all, and he couldn't remember why this was built this way. Mistake, employee playing around, I don't know???? There are no diamond chips in the button holes. As always thank you.

Re: Lady's Leg
I looked up this Diamond Lil because I have never heard of it or seen it. I am curious about the age of this knife? I see the handles are shrinking and the example I saw on Worthpoint was also shrunken badly. That makes me think this is pretty old, by that I mean a few decades at least. I like the looks of this material, it’s the best looking lady’s leg knife I have seen.chorizotaco wrote:Hi all

Re: Lady's Leg
I like it, though the scales don't seem to fit perfectly on that knife, love the lace look to 'em.

Re: Lady's Leg
Thanks
I still don't own a Bicentennial Ka-bar because the ones that I have seen have the handles pulling up and in one case pulling through the pin. I'm still looking for a reasonably priced one though.....without too much handle pull.
