AC Gentry's WWI/Korea Knife.



Borrowed my neighbors knife to skin a deer up at Clarksville. It's a very distinguished knife made for Mr. Gentry by a fellow in his dad's shop at the Texas Highway Department at the beginning of WWII. He carried it in the South Pacific through several island campaigns and during the occupation of Japan. He took it into Korea and it came home with him after he was wounded.

Glad to get the loan of it to actually carry and use it a little in a functional setting.
