We recently came across what looks to be a hand-made knife...at least the handle appears to be. ALLEGANY CUTLERY CO is stamped on the iron or carbon steel 5 3/4" blade. It is a full tang knife. The handle is wood and appears to be nailed onto the blade, but I don't think that can be right. They just look like nailheads. The shape is slightly curved upward at the tip...kind of machete-like, but, of course, much smaller.
Any idea about where I might learn more about this knife?
