I was in a local antique store yesterday and found the bolo knife you see in the pictures I have uploaded. The blade markings are hard to read in the picture, but are ACCO HICAGO 1918 on one side (as best as I can make it out) and US model 1917 CT on the other side. It appears to be in good condition. The scabbard has the cover and belt hanger still on it and is marked as you see in the pictures. If anyone knows who made this bolo and what a price range may be, I would be grateful. The store had $240 on it. That seemed high. Any thoughts?
