Hi all,
Does anybody know where I could find some good, historically correct steel indian or trade knives for the F&I war period? Keaping in mind that My budget is around 100$??
I am truying to put together the kit of a mohican of that period, and I'm especially interested in the knife that was used by ddl in the movie.... but some sort of economic fairly priced type !!
Thanks,

I have a friend that makes traditional native knives fairly inexpensively. Email me and I will get you in touch with him. wlogwihlas@hotmail.com |

Trade knives of the period were not expensive or well made, just functional. A good copy can be had for $25 to $35 from quite a number of vendors. A hand made knife will cost from $75 to $700, depending on who makes it. An unknown maker may charge a lower price for quality work until he becomes better known. A knife like DDL's would cost a minimum of $500, and it would not be classified as a trade knife. Too much custom work. |
