Found this in a flea market in Pocomoke City, MD. FABICO was F.A.Bower Implement Co., an importer of Japanese and German knives in the '50's. Not bad, has an old-timey look with cocobolo, iron liners, half stops, and the rat-tailed bolsters. The old lady with the table was sweet and said I could have it for a dollar. I gave her two.
J.O'.

Thanks Marco. Gotta add $27 dollars in gas to and from the flea market! No free lunch anywhere! But I enjoy it. John.

Re: FABICO
Well, gas is a fact of life, and I seriously doubt you'd find that knife anywhere else for $29.!
Gas or not, it's a fine knife, buddy!
