Aye, it for sure looks and feels like the Buck blades I've owned - why I bought it - but sadly there's not a mark on the blade or the handle...not a single indication of origin.

The little sheath that came with it was from cheap- cardboard-like leather poorly cut and machine stitched. Don't even know if the knifemaker made the sheath - sure doesn't look like it comparing the quality of the blade with the tacky cheapness of the sheath.

Have an folder with a similar type inlaid handle and its blade/works have many markings. Most curious.

Need to amble back over to that trading post and see if they have more similar knives I can use for sgian dubhs.
