Up for sale is a vintage Colonial Prov. USA fishtail (or bowtie) folding pocket knife. This mid-century piece features the classic flared fishtail bolster design, bright silver-tone hardware, and a durable black jigged composition handle. The original handle scales remain completely intact, showing only light surface wear with no cracks, chips, or missing pieces. The blade carries the authentic stamped \"COLONIAL PROV. U.S.A.\" tang mark at the base.
This pocket knife is being sold in unrestored, \"as-found\" condition, preserving its natural history for vintage collectors. The carbon steel clip point blade exhibits a prominent dark aged patina, heavy surface spotting, and visible pitting as clearly pictured. Mechanically, it functions as it should, though the new owner may choose to oil the joint. Please review the high-resolution photos carefully to evaluate the exact cosmetic condition and blade wear before purchase.
