With the recent dust-up concerning what is or isn't a legitimate knife, I was somewhat reluctant to post this knife available on Ebay.
I have no idea if this is a one-off, or something else. What I do know is was well used. The top half of the sheath is removed. Just looking for some open and calm discussion about what we're looking at here. My first thought was it looked like an early 19 but this knife pre-dates that. So your thoughts are?

Warren, That knife was part of a duo sold last year off of ebay. The other K.L. (Kenneth Lindsey) had a 7" blade with a blood groove. Wonder what happened to the other blade.

I remember the blood groove knife Eric. This one is a mystery.

It appears to be a very early form of a Model 11

But not a drop point which followed. Isn't it odd that it somehow resembles a 19? Just my opinion.

It no longer has a point. The top bevel is clearly pointing down, but use and sharpening have changed the appearance. It could have also been tipped at one time.
