a beautiful knife with a story
this knife belongs to a friend of mine, it was given to him by his grandfather, that was in a prison in Siberia, for three years, in the time of the communist government, and when the communist government fell he was released, he was supposed to be sentenced to death but some thing changed and he was sentenced to five years in Siberia (and all for being Jewish), as my friend tolled me the other prisoners liked him vary much and made him this knife, it is all made from materials found in the prison, it's a auto, the bolster is plastic and the handle is also plastic and is made to look like a horse leg, the blade, must have been made from a kitchen knife, and is high polished, overall length 10"
an amazing knife and a piece of history IMO. p.s sorry about the crappy pics i took them in a hurry. |
