Well my dad has been on a rampage giving away stuff since hes getting up in age and health is going down and wants certain things taken care of before so there is no issues with Will and whatnot...

He just handed me a bag with some knife sharpening stuff I asked about and it also had a big @ss knife in the bag as well, I got it out to look and it says Fischer Knives and a fish on the blade and says Victoria Texas on the sheath. Id say its at least 30+ yrs old. Im not sure if my dad just didnt know much about it or if he was just being his old secretive, mysterious self like he does sometimes, but he didnt tell me much about it but elude that its a big deal.

Is there anyway for me to find out some info on this thing? Im no expert on knives in any way, but this looks to be a one of a kind custom beauty to me and would like to know all I can about it.
 
Try to post a picture if you can, that can help to identify your knife. There are lots of guys around who are expert collectors and will privatly send you e-mails with an aproximate value if you request so.
 
Thanks, thats the kind of suggestions I was looking for...I will try to take some pics tonight if I can when I get home and maybe some of you pros can give me some help.
 
Yep, its Clyde alright. Would like to see pictures also.
There are still some people that collect Clyde's work but also collected by makers that knew him as well.

It is for sure a Clyde Fischer knife. Clyde passed away about four years ago he lived in Victoria Texas, his son Sammy now makes knives. There are collectors of Clyde's work.
 
If it looks anything like the knife below it was definitely made by Clyde Fischer. There is a link below to a few other Clyde Fischer knives. (scroll about 2/3rds of the way down the page)

I cant tell the condiction of your knife very well but I would say it should bring $275.00 to $350.00 as I have seen several in that price range.
