Thanked: 1Wow that blade is very interesting. Love the scales. I want to get a razor with ivory scales down the road, but not sure how to spot them. Bone and Ivory can look the same to me. For the scales being that old they look mint. I'm always amazed that something approaching 200 years old in that conditions that is still usable. That's why I love this hobby.

Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Thanked: 1184There was that era when they shaped the tangs like that. More pointy details. Never seen that much detail on a spine though. Nice grab.
Very nice grab :<0)Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.
