My first impression, however, is that if the carving on the ivory is good and detailed and indeed old that it seems a bit of a mismatch for the blade, which seems a bit more middle class.
How's the fit in the sheath? Do you think it was made for this blade?
Nice to hear from you David!. The blade seems to fit well. Although it sinks a little bit in the sheath but I think that is because of wear. Enclosed some more pictures. I agree that the blade, on first site, looks a bit simple. But when looking closer the pamor is not bad.
