Peter Bauchop was one of the premier knife makers of South Africa (Germanston, South Africa).    One of his most popular knives was his Alley Cat (stamped No. 161).  This is a full tang (7/32”) knife measuring over 13 ½” long with an 8” blade made from D2 tool steel.  The hilt is brass and the handles are African pink wood.  The knife is in mint condition having remained in a display case (climate controlled environment) since purchased new.  This knife comes with an Eagle nylon sheath.
