Hi estcrh,
Thanks for your comments and enhanced pics. I agree with you for the same reasons, the other two are ornamental and would not stand up to prolonged use. The one you have is a good robust one and made to use.

Miguel, the other two are very similar, one does look to be much more worn but both seem to be not nearly as old as the ivory handled one. I was hoping to see some more examples from forum members.
