Scarce Early Buck Carving Knife, with blue Lucite handle, 8-7/8" blade, 12-3/4" overall, with aluminum guard and bolster, dark blue Lucite handle. It is believed that this knife was part of a set which included six Buck steak knives. Our consignor, who is a charter member of the Buck Collectors Club, states that this knife was shown to a Buck knife historian who believes that it was likely made by Al Buck at his home in San Diego, circa 1947-1948. Blade has general moderate pitting and has been cleaned. Lucite with light handling marks but no major blemishes. Guard and pommel with some rotational movement. An interesting piece, worth further research. Est.: $300-$500.
