Another good one Ed. A short line stamp, that would be 1946 to early 50'sand looks like brownstag handles in very good condition!

Umm, because of the rat tail bolsters, I'm going with bone. (get out your 45X microscope and check it out for us) Brownstag® didn't make an appearance until the mid '50s. Looks to be in excellent condition for it's age.

Thanks Greg, Phil, and Jerry. I took your advice and broke out the trusty 60x microscope and Jerry you are correct....bone it is. I thank you fellas for helping me along and fueling my fire for these vintage pieces of American history.jerryd6818 wrote:Umm, because of the rat tail bolsters, I'm going with bone.
