I think that you are 100% correct Joe. The original owner was a Korean veteran in the US Navy. I would be willing to bet a dollar to a donut that he himself, or someone on a ship tried to balance out the weight distribution of the 8" blade by removing the aluminum buttcap and installing brass in it's place.



Thanks again Joe!
