Various types and patterns of these "GIANT" knives were used back in the old days in shops and hardware windows
to show the folk's window shopping that they sold knives inside.

Scales are multi-colored wood, and the bolsters have a nice scroll work on all 4.
Blade has printed Logo, showing both sides of a Mercury Dime.
The face of the handle has a 3D replica of a mercury dime in silvertone
