I think not. Found this in a very remote place in the hills recently. The blade wobbles when locked open and there is rust. Looks like a cheaply made knife held together with rivits.

I have no intention of using it. I have a vast collection of Spyderco knives and a couple of Benchmade blades. I’m just curious about this knife since it says Special Forces on it, but so cheaply made.

That's a solid patina it's got there on the original native american bone handle. I've only seen it once before. The ancient 'merican indian burial ground called "ebay." Think it roughly translates to "...like you NEED something else to cluttah the house already, Oy!" Or something like that.

Clearly an artifact. You should have left it right where you found it. Maybe even covered it with some handy dirt to prevent someone else from looting the site.

Nope. You got slightly poorer when you picked it up.

On the upside, you did your part to clean up the wilderness, leaving it just a little better than you found it, so there is that...

Seeing that written on the blade was enough for me to know it was junk.

Frost Cutlery-that crap is sold on late-night shopping channels, usually in a collection of 50+ knives and a Klingon dagger. They have some creative names for their junk; I think I've seen some like "Apache Tanto" and "Viking Tomahawk". Big Grin

that is a perfect tackle box knife,

doubt it could rust up any more,
probably will be worthless when you try to use it,
so you will end up tossing it overboard in a moment of clarity, mumbling fukkit when you do,

Put "Special Forces" on a something and the value increases 25%. Same with "Navy Seals" or "Seal Team Six".

Looks like a junk knife to me.

I'd put it on Craigslist, using the same photos but airbrush out the rust spots, for an even ten cents. If they bitch when they see the spots, tell them you'll take nine cents for it.

It is quite valuable, If you can link it to being used in the capture of Saddam Hussein.
