Jack, I'm not sure what you see in the photo of that knife. The knife looks good to me, and I think, on washing out the photo and enlarging, that it is soldered. It looks very much like the one in Gaddis' book.
You asked where it came from, it's history. Joe explained:
That knife came home to roost and was donated to the museum last year. So take a good look at it, one of the earliest RMK's you will ever see.
"The owner did not want to leave it to relatives who had no idea what it was and meant to him.
Thanks, Sam
