			A super catch, congratulations! Usually they are much, much more expensive. I had it bookmarked but forgot to bid on it. Michael |

			nice catch at the current roe (rate of exchange)    Indeed well noticed by Mc Cormack that the blade shows nickel lines. Did you clean or etch the blade yet ? |

			Today I received the pade. All in all I am satisfied with my purchase, special by the price I paid for. The horn part of the handle is bursted maybe from corrosion of the tang and the "fiber" wrapping at the handle isn't original and maybe recent. But the lamination of the blade is very nice and the blade is 11 mm thick at the handle.  Here some additional pictures. |
