Beautiful pair of Borowski's Zet. It could not happen to a nicer guy.

I had seen the photos of this previous and it is a great find.

Ted,

Congratulation, it is a beautiful dagger!
I had seen on Lakesidetrader's site too.
It is nice to see finally it arrived home. I love Polish daggers, but very hard to find an original one.
Just like the Hungarians...

Beauty set of Borowski's daggers here!
Particularly like one with dark pumpkin grip.
Congrats!
They are becoming more and more hard to find and of course more expressive.

Here my "trio" set - one in the middle has the ivory grip:

He says:
"Tiny portion of tip is broken off but on a dagger of this type it’s a minor issue."
Well ... for me it's a really MAJOR issue!
Other thing:
That old ivory should have some hairline cracks - this grip looks too new for me ... but I could be wrong as well.

This is a really nice set. I was offered the hangers recently and passed on it. Looking at thos I know what was wronk with them and glad I passed:)

BTW> what do you think of this one? Ivory grip borowski but some black patina on the pommel and side.

I like this dagger but black finished pommel looks very strange.Of course Im not an expert but it looks almost new compare to the rest of the dagger.Without hand inspection its really hard to say clear opinion.Best Ted I will post some pics soon.

Thanks Ted, also the side of the grip is black - but hard to define the material. Here's the picture.

BTW. Is Borowski Warszawa a legit stamp as below?
