Not saying it’s a fake, but maybe worked on?

Post by CarMan »

Okay guys, in NO WAY am I calling this out as a fake. I am curious about everyone’s take on whether the pen blade is original or possibly welded to the old tang. I am still trying to learn how to identify possible red flags. Thanks for any help. Sorry, but I don’t know how to attach a short cut to ebay, so I have to add pictures. This knife does have beautiful bone on it.
Thanks for any help,
John

Looks like authentic Voos Cutlery with the arrow through the word Voos, made in the 1940s-60ish. Great bones and jigging.
Can't see a welded pen blade but the blurry pictures make it tough to tell much on my end.

Thank you. The pictures are rather blurry when expanded. It’s a nice knife for the price. Just wasn’t sure about the deep indent between tang and blade.

I found a picture of another knife like this on line and it is the same as the one I posted. So what I thought was wrong, apparently is normal. So, I was wrong in what I thought I saw.
