    Ye gods, that's extraordinary! It's been quite a while since I was last so amazed by a restoration job here - bravo.

    About as the tang stamp on your blade, this one looks very similar; try asking Philadelph if he found out about his.

    W&B used the anchor symbol at some time, but I couldn't tell you when or why. I just know I've seen that same stamp on the occasional blade that also has the W&B stamping.

    The anchor is also a silver hallmark for the city of Birmingham. That may have an influence.
