First and foremost, thank you in advance for your help and advice in this matter. While I am not a member of the knife forum community, I am pretty active in the car forum community so I understand the comradely and forum life as some may put it.
So I am here for advice, my father who recently passed was a huge knife enthusiast. I never followed his love, so when he passed, I was left with a few items that I have no want or need to keep. The first step in this journey is to understand what I don’t know own and what its value actually is. This is the reason I am reaching out to this community is, you all are experts in this field and I hope to learn from you and even go in the direction that you may send me in if I decide to sell this knife.
I know it was a knife once owned by a member of the Mexican army during the battle of San Jacinto. That is of course based upon the note that is pictured below. I know my father was very proud of this knife, as it was once my grandfather’s.
Any insights, knowledge, direction to investigate or pricing would be a huge help.
