Custom tang stamp ID?

Post by Simple Man »

Anyone recognize this custom tang stamp on a small fixed blade? Elk Creek (guessing??)

I have not seen this logo before. There are literally thousands of knife makers making good fixed blades in USA. And there are some knives showing up with logos that look like they should be American but they are coming from China. Presumably they had a very light "China" etch that was then removed. That said your knife is much more likely to be of USA origin.

Yeah, it has a nice convex edge, not hollow ground machine grind. Here are a few more pics.

Nicely made knife and sheath. Imported knives do not come with well made sheaths.
