Would have enjoyed seeing that brand.
Never heard of it before.

The "Osgar" has just plain jane black scales but the blade is a dandy. Osgar is stamped on the tang and is for Osborne and Garrett......so I'm told. It has a shorter than normal tail and minimal hone wear for its age. It needs to have some minor scratches sanded out of the scales, a new pin job and it's missing a pin collar. I really should get down on my knees and ask Outback if he can re-pin the thing for me. I'm just too ham fisted for pinning.
