Hey guys, new here. Wondering if I can hop on this thread about a barteuax knife I picked up at a yard sale. Or do I need to find something in fixed blades. Thanks

Absolutely, join on in. Welcome aboard! ::welcome::
We're really not very formal around here. And we love pictures of knives! I've had two or three Barteaux machetes but none of their knives, although one of the ones MUD post it looks familiar.

Gerber, Murphy & Barteaux are sort of connected. I haven't seen any connection from Aycock to Murphy or Barteaux, or even Gerber for that matter but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Much appreciated and thanks for the welcome! Here's some pics. Seems to be factory edge, not a scratch on her.

Nice looking knife.
Is there a date engraved on the handle?
I can't quite make it out, what does the engraving say?

Seriously, a beautiful knife. Thanks for posting and welcome.

Compared to what I've seen similar knives listed for.
