Hello Jose,

Quote:
I guess I am the odd duck out. Although interesting and older than WWII in carving, I would still say that the blade is later, say, 1930s?
That would have been about the latest date that I'd guess for this piece - probably somewhat earlier IMVHO. Not sure we can trust the label though.

Blade and fittings appear to be of similar age to me (with the possible exception of that "cloth ferrule" and the hanger rings).

Regards,
Kai
