Frank earned himself a spot in a ‘Ripley’s Believe It or Not’ magazine in the 1930’s. These knives can be used for decades, because of Frank’s superior craftsmanship.
This knife measures 8″ overall. The blade itself measures 3 13/16″. This Richtig fighter is marked on the guard ‘F.J.R. CLARKSON NEB.‘.
