Ruana on ebay

I wish I would have picked up about a dozen of Rudy's knives back when they were going for around 100-200 bucks. I have been obsessed with cast aluminum handled knives for a couple of years now. I have got as far as casting some pommels but that is it. Rudy's idea to machine out and add stag inserts was a cool one. This old fighter looks like a beast. Wish I could afford it.

I detect a bit of Scagel influence in this blade. The double spikes on the spine.

Here is another old Ruana on ebay. I love the rustic look of his old stuff.

I can't believe I'm even saying this about this great knife, but the guard looks like an old time water faucet handle to me. But that's ok, I'd take it anyway
