    Looks like a paired set once upon a time with the #1 and #2 stamps on the tang.

    That’s an interesting find. I hope you get it all cleaned up with some scales from crazy cool material.

    Yea I know how most feel about the original shoes but I just can bring my self to go through all the work on the blade just to but those back on. it be like wearing a Armani suit with work boots. But I will keep then in a draw. LOL

    It looks to me that the other was reground or had some sort restorative work at some point.
