Sam McDowell Scrimshawed Knife. In overall, very good condition. Does not look sharpened, but there are some smudges on the blade from use? It locks firmly in place; releases with a fair amount of pressure. The brass is tarnished. Engraved with the initials “JSK”. Engraving is not deep, so could possibly be polished off?? I am not sure what the handle material is for sure. Blade marked Surgical Steel Japan. Came in brown felt knife holder. Handling cost is for insurance.
