Here's an interesting Model 2 that came up on e-bay a number of years ago: I put it ~ mid-50's. It has an elephant ivory handle, nickel silver hilt, seven spacers and a sterile blade with a name etch of "PAUGUK". If any of you guys are Hiawatha fans, you may remember the name: Pauguk is the personification of death. He is represented as existing without flesh or blood. He is a hunter, but he hunts only men, women, and children. His bones are covered by a thin transparent skin and his eye sockets as filled with balls of fire. Just to see him is a sure indication of imminent death.




I was outbid, but saved the seller's photos.

Best,

Ron
