Barnett Blades W. VA knife - 03/18/14
Looking for some info. I picked this knife up in an internet trade (probably the first or second one I ever did) around 12-15 years ago.
It is 8 inches overall with a 3 1/2-inch blade. The knife has never been sharpened and it came wrapped in tissue paper with no sheath. Googling Barnes Blades, West Virginia, shows me a lot of knives that look nothing like this one, but one of the short biographies mentioned that he started making knives right out of high school. I assume that this is an early product but would like some more information.
The flash on the camera doesn't make for a very good photo at night, but I will try to get one or two more tomorrow in natural light. I would appreciate any info you can give me.
Thanks!
