Fur Trade knife

[Relicific]

Haven’t been on too many woods hunt this summer cause of the heat and humidity, but I’m glad I did recently.After a lack lustre couple of hours finding mostly bottle caps I found my one and only good find of the day.Its a Cartouche knife, which dates back to the fur trade period.Yeah I was drenched in sweat and had to deal with the biting bugs, but it was worth it.

There have been only a few similar versions found but in A LOT WORSE condition than yours.

This one was found by Archies.

Well done.
