I purchased this knife from a tribal member in Neah Bay, Washington. The seller told me it was made by his great grandfather and handed down through the family. I bought this from a man down on his luck but with the understanding that I would sell it back to him if he returned my money. I never saw the man again and that was twenty years ago. I had it appraised at the Northwest Knife show in Puyallup Washington in 2017 and it appraised at $800-$1000.
