Maybe a pocket knife or a small belt knife. Ever tried skinning a small critter with a huge knife? Pretty impractical.
that’s a real one, but not my real one. thought a ninja sword would make a good knifeIs the sword an antique or a replica? I have an antique that was dated to 1800 and made by a very well known blade smith in Japan.
More likely, they would have carried an extra pistol.I doubt if any so called gunfighters had any use for a knife.

I will probably add a cross draw holster to my collection down the line.
You know with that fancy gun rig, you also need a big knife with matching sheath to go with it. What gunslinger doesn't also carry a big knife?
My point exactly, the sword I have was meant for one thing, killing folks. From the look of the edge it's done just that.It would be useless and cumbersome.
I carry several different types, light Walmart $5 one for cutting steaks, to a Benchmade I found in my old truck. My favorite was a Shrade that I carried everyday for years, until it fell off a wood Skiff with a 6 hp motor, 5 miles off the Santa Cruz shore, Big Swells, long story… I livedDoesn't everyone carry a knife (I carry one that was my grandfather's)?
A pocket knife or small "belt knife", not a weapon but an every day tool.
I think that Pietta looks familiar. Although, there's something different about it.My brassers...

Top my older ASM, lower a newer Pietta... both nice shooters but keep my loads respectable.
thanks for that, It seem expensiveThe 1911 is a commercial model and way overpriced.
This. And the condition is not that great.The 1911 is a commercial model and way overpriced.
A tanto would be more appropriate. Cold Steel and CRKT have some nice ones.that’s a real one, but not my real one. thought a ninja sword would make a good knife
Whatcha gonna do when yer sixguns run dry??? Bowies are fighting knives, not for skinning game. That said, I can manage a deer pretty easily with an 8-10" blade.

I have a Cold Steel Tanto. It might make an ok fighting knife...
those look very usefulThere's an Opinel for most any use..... almost old west period correct. I love mine. Never without one.

Yes sir, some obvious, others not so obvious, but when I wear it, its in that awesome holster you made for itI think that Pietta looks familiar. Although, there's something different about it.
