Featured in this lot is this outstanding silversmith work by master Navajo Native American Indian, Randy Begay Jr., set on an original Montana Territory Knives Damascus blade. The knife shows two scales of sterling silver with repoussé, highly figured stamping with Old Pawn stylings. The silver is set onto an original forged Damascus blade from Montana Territory Knives of Bozeman, Montana. The blade bears the “MT (surrounded by an outline of Montana) BOZEMAN MT” forged stamp on the left side of the blade. The silver is stamped on the left side of the handle with Randy Begay Jr.’s signature hallmark, “RBJR Sterling”. The blade is paired with an original, thick, genuine leather Montana Territory Knives Bozeman, MT sheath, which has been hand tooled/stamped and bears the hallmark. The piece is handmade and has small imperfections that comes with any handmade piece, along with some grip scale spacing. These knives are from a limited set and are the only true forged Damascus knives with exceptional Navajo silversmithing from Randy Begay Jr. on the market. The knife itself is 8.75” L with a blade area that is 4 1/8” L. The sheath and blade together are 10.75” L. The blade is of high quality, but the knife is more for display and does not have a warranty as it is art. There is some patina on the sterling silver. The collective weight of this piece is 10lb.
