I think I gave about $10 for it. After use, I wipe it off with some soapy water, dry it, touch it up with an Arkansas stone, then lightly oil it before putting it up.

It's a well ground piece of carbon steel with full tang through a riveted on hickory handle.

I picked it up at the hardware store before a trip to the ocean when I was expecting to catch some fish.

This one,.....nothing fancy.

I bought that knife after seeing you post it up a couple of weeks ago. It's a good knife for the money.

It's not "sleep with it" good. But good nonetheless.
