This is a knife that my grandfather (Arthur J "Bud" Hubbard) made for me when I was born. He passed when I was still young and I never got to learn much about his hobby. I know virtually nothing about knife making so if anyone cares to shed some light on what I have I would appreciate it. So far I have just found one of his patents related to the way he made the damascus which was interesting. Alternatively, if anyone has one of his pieces I would love to hear about it.
