VTG JOSEPH HOLBERT CUSTOM HANDMADE SCAGEL STYLE KNIFE W/ EARLY ANVIL H STAMP RARE


Joe Holbert is perhaps the finest maker of “Scagel” style blades. He maintained a shop in Bainbridge Ohio and passed away in 2015.


Vintage custom made hunting knife by the late Ohio Knife Maker Joe Holbert in we found and uncleaned condition. This knife has Holbert’s earl letter H inside the anvil. It includes a custom leather sheath that is likely not original to the blade. 5 7/8” blade, 10 1/8” overall. Brass handle, brass & composition spacers m, a pinned stag (or deerhorn) pommel. Everything is tight. Original edge, with a couple of light pitting/ manufacturing spots along the blade. See pictures for details!
::hmm:: Very interesting TopDog, and a greeeeaaat find for you ... Congrats!!!!

T-Dog, Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. That knife is a Gerber design which was available during the Vietnam era. I acquired my model during the 90s.

::handshake:: Thanks Q.S. ::hmm:: ...Those Gerbers seem to be hard to find nowadays. The MK Is and MK IIs are some of my favorite fixed blades of all time ::nod::

Biggest folder I have. Not very practical (for me) but the size and the stag offer a certain comfort, I guess. Fun to look at

Ohhh that is nice!!! That is my kind of knife. 👍👍... I'm always looking to add something like that to my collection, I just don't see many of them "out on the street" where I live nowadays. Very nice piece you have there ::nod::
