THE KNIFE
The style seems to be similar to that of the traditional Navaja type Spanish Knives but I cant tell for sure as markings were rusted away. It was found in a delapedated, rotting old house, lived in by a man who was purported to be insane. He boarded up all of the windows of his own home at least 30 years ago and lived like a squatter on the wooden floor of one of the rooms in the house.
The knife lay beside a cut throat razor and a 1907 pattern ww1 British Bayonette in a similar state of disrepair.
The blade and spine are extremely pitted but there’s still live in it yet!
