Thanks for the further input from all you guys.
It's not mine to chuck your way 'Nando ; it came from the same restaurateur who plunked this (seen below) down on the bar top; he asked me to identify this $50.00 sabre about a year ago.

Needless to say I envy his consistent good fortune.

Still, it's my favorite watering hole.

Hoping that 'watering' is a figure of speech; we don't want your piping system to get rusty

Well, your picture with the tape tells a different story than a 1.75 socket.

You obviously don't need to waste your time on the $50 saber. It is obviously worth no more than shipping costs to me

I think I measured that dimension after returning home from the aforementioned watering hole.
The part about langets having been removed was my guess so we'll never really know for sure.

That rusty old sabre...meh.

Thanks again gentlemen.
