Here are a pair of unusual and rare knives. A WWII Era model 1-5" fighter pictured with what is certainly one of if not the first model 5-5" note very low blade "small" blade stamping indicative of WWII Era. Certainly a rare and unusual pair.....

Fantastic knives, Burnie. Did someone overdo it sharpening the 5-5? A pity, if so, but she's still a real looker.

Burnie I'm glad the WWII 1-5 and 5-5 are together. They make a great pair.

Thank you Warren. Here are much better photos of the knife "Ron's of course!" Blade has been sharpened and would clean up nicely. I like the petina....&#128513;

Very nice, Rocky.

Here's what seems to be a luggage tag made from Belgian Congo ivory:




Here's a belt buckle made from sterling with the Randall stamp:

I would think that Bo never liked to waste anything!!!
Also...it's just hard to consider the he had tusks that were so large, that he had nothing to do with the remainder but to make ash trays....how big were they??? 100lb's+ each....just think of it!!!
to think of it is amazing....

:-)Rocky
