Theater Made Knife...I think...

[LoadedColt45]

I picked this one up from a flea market today. This would be my first theater made knife (i like to think it is anyway) - It looked like a typical plexi glass handle theatre made knife anyway. I suppose there is no way of knowing for sure if it is indeed theater made, which is why I don't usually buy these, but I was able to talk the seller down to $15 - I figured it was worth at least that.

 

Blade has a nice shape to it. No markings. Very tight. If you have any opinions, please share.

Nice looking knife, almost to nice to be theater.

I'm not knowledgeable enough to make the call,

But theater or not, it's a really nice knife. :thumbsup:

That's the "problem" with theater knives; are they, or are they not. Of course, this didn't stop me from adding several to my collection--I love them! I'll have to disagree with JS in that it's almost too nice to be a TK. I've seen some real works of art made in theater. Give this one the benefit of the doubt, and get a nice period sheath to go with it. It's a beauty; so, enjoy it! :thumbsup:

I freely admitted I didn't know about theater knives,

But I didn't realize how nice they can be made.

Both examples are beauties.
