Always thought the S & W 1917 with 45 AR ammo was one of the best defensive revolvers ever! Is the trench knife original or a repro?

It's original. I found it languishing in a local pawnshop rather recently. No scabbard with it unfortunately. They had $500 price tag on it and I made about a $300 trade for it.

The shop employee said they had had if for a rather long while and I knew more about it than anyone that had been in prior. The fact that I knew it had some value made them anxious to deal.

Now just to wait out an original scabbard.................:rolleyes:

Here are a few more pics of the markings on the knives/bayonet.

Gun: Colt Cobra .38 Special snubby, made circa 1968. Note the jeweled hammer. I took the factory hammer shroud off.

Knife: Spyderco Police model, made circa 2001.
Very nice 3rd generation Spyderco! My first Spydie that started it all was a 2nd gen POLICE that I ended up losing. I saw another in pristine condition at a gunshow and couldn't pull my wallet out fast enough. I still carry her every once in awhile. Great knife.

I lost a big Spyderco Chinook 3 about 5 years ago. Don't know where it is. Under the bed? Behind the water heater? Don't know. I hope to find it someday. I don't think it ever left the house. Chinook™ 3 - Spyderco, Inc.

Very nice looking blade. One of the things I like about Spyderco is that have a design for just about anyone. I've been trying to buy my cousin's 1st gen stainless Native for about 15 years. I can't seem to find them anywhere!
 
Here are some pics of various handguns with my new Buck 120 that I received as a Christmas gift from my brother.

The Santa Fe Stoneworks knife is a Christmas gift from my wonderful daughter, it has instantly become my very favorite knife. Plus it goes perfectly with my compact Arizona BBQ side arm!

The inlaid handle is composed of MOP (like the M60 stocks) and Kingman AZ Turquoise & AZ sourced volcanic rock. The craftsmanship is pure artwork.
