Here's an ivorite thread about the shop's new offering in about 2009. The first image that isn't broken is from our Italian representative, Guido. https://www.knifetalkforums.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=86216#Post86216 Here's a threa

Others here can identity the material for certain. If you have the original shop invoice, that would also lock it down. We like to have them stay pristine, but stuff happens. No matter how we store non-stainless for example, no matter what preserv

I am looking for a good- very good- condition Johnson roughback sheath for a model 15. One w/o the model stamp is preferred, but will definitely consider a stamped 15 version, if condition is better.
