Description
A Western Black Beauty F66 fixed-blade hunting knife with its accompanying leather sheath. The knife features a pronounced curved steel blade, exhibiting significant surface wear including scratches, pitting, and a darkened patina, indicative of age and use. Clearly stamped on the ricasso are the English markings: “WESTERN,” “BOULDER, COLO.,” and “U.S.A.” The handle is crafted from a distinctly ribbed black material, possibly hard rubber or a composite, flanked by a polished metal finger guard and a matching pommel, both displaying scuffs and minor abrasions. The custom-fit sheath is constructed from black leather with visible tan edges, featuring white stitching and a snap closure, showing moderate wear and creasing consistent with the knife’s condition.
